Treat yourself with kindness, just as you would a close friend.
Your ugly shit is the compost for your future genius and the data for your real voice.
Embracing your imperfections is the first step to true freedom.
Sharing your story can be scary, but it's often the bravest thing you'll ever do.
The most sustainable infrastructure for any northern arts collective is actually the health of our nervous systems.
Kindness isn't just a gesture for others; it's the quiet grace you give yourself when you're struggling.
Your worth is not a dividend paid out based on how fast you reach traditional milestones.
Creative entrepreneurship isn't a corporate takeover; it is literally just taking the wheel of your own bus.
Kindness is recognizing that your bad mood is yours to manage, not everyone else’s to suffer.
