Becoming Her


Good day Love bugs.

Becoming Her is a vision that has been living in my head for so long. I saw the trend on social media and it assured me that I am not crazy.

Becoming Her is about becoming the best version of yourself. That means no longer allowing fear and doubt to control you. But this is more than iced coffee or bubble baths (which I absolutely love). It means coming to terms with reality, it means no longer denying the past. Most importantly,it means doing the work.

The not so glamorous work, going to therapy, changing your diet,changing your habits etc. Remember that God does not workoutside of your will. With all of this do not forget to rest and to do the activities that you love.
As I write this I am in the most hectic period of my life. I took a warm bath yesterday with bath salts and I closed my eyes and tried to envisionmy best possible self. It was a difficult task to embark on. I will not preach perfectiom to you guys or pretend like my life is perfect.
However,it will get better,I promise you.
Till next time,cheers!

The smart to average kid pipeline

My inspiration for this post came from a YouTube video titled ' You were a gifted kid 7 years ago. Now what?' by David Achu, I will link it down below. I won't toot my horn but I was a pretty smart kid. I got most of the awards in primary school and early on in high school. Being smart was my brand until fast forward to late high school and varsity. I know I am not the only one who has had this experience so let's take a lot into the dynamic of being a smart kid, overachiever, or even a child genius. You are not smart, you score well. The public school system in South Africa is focused more on feeding information to children rather than teaching students. The teachers are under pressure, schools are overcrowded and resources are limited. So, the system bases which children are bright on who can memorize the most information and who can get the highest scores. I mean scores do matter, APS/GPA matter and it also determines what you study in the future and...

So you want to start therapy...

Good day, my love bugs. I put up an Instagram poll a while back on my wellness page @ acreatorswrite and I asked you guys what is the one thing you want to try or do in 2024. The majority of the response was therapy. As someone who has been in therapy since high school and someone who works in social services, I know that therapy can sound so overwhelming. Let us dismantle some of the myths that are associated with therapy. 1. Every journey starts with acceptance In the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous , the first step is to admit that you have a problem. This is similar to therapy because denial does not take you anywhere with any journey be it a fitness journey or a spiritual journey- you have to admit that there is something you have to address, a truth you are running away from, or an unresolved trauma that you have to deal with in therapy. Acceptance also comes with accountability in therapy you are going to have to own up to everything you ...

We may have to do this again

Good day, my love bugs. What if I told you that healing is not linear? What if I told you that there is not one big jackpot at the end? What if I told you that just as unpredictable as life is, so is healing? There are no incentives in the healing journey just reflection. At times healing feels like regression and can feel like a cycle of feeling immense contentment and hopelessness. So will the journey ever come to an end? I am still figuring it out but here are some tips about the healing journey you want to know. You are not better than anyone because you embarked on a healing journey. There is a sense of superiority that ‘pop psychology’ can give you which is going to be the downfall of mental health awareness. You should by all means share your good experiences with other people and even encourage people to embark on their healing journeys. However, you do not get to tell anyone that they are less than you or even look down on someone who is not on the same journey as you. Our jou...
