Bravely is a soft place for fierce truth, quietly shared through my lived experience.
Instead of wasting precious time searching for answers, I've made the conscious decision to withdraw my energy from those online spaces that leave me feeling flat.
I'm a nomadic soul (living mostly in Australia and the UK) and I blog about what it's like living with major depressive disorder (MDD), addiction recovery, childhood trauma (parental alienation) and layered grief.
I'm currently in the process of unwinding from the filtered narrative on socials, and it is happening in real-time.
Unwinding isn't about going back in time, it's saying no, not today, not anymore, you don't get to steal my precious life energy.
And they don't.
Because in this now, in this breath, we are remembering what these social networks are so invested in hiding from us.
We are breathing life back into the moment before the fracture and discovering a hidden truth.
We are not pretending the flattening didn’t happen, we’re proving that it no longer defines who we are.
Bravely I blog, because we are not data points, we are human beings, glimmering with hues of tenderness.
And together, we are walking each other home.
