    Lessons from Saying Goodbye to my Lost Close Friendship

    October 11, 2020

    Friendships drifting and ending is a common occurrence around times of life transition, such as between high school and undergrad, and undergrad to workplace or continuing education and beyond. One of the hardest sets of lessons I had to learn in my adult life were catalyzed from the sudden end of a long-lasting close friendship.…

    Dear Recent Grad: It’s OK to Slow Down

    November 24, 2019

    I’m a recent grad with a Health Sciences degree who is facing difficulties with slowing down. Does there need to always be something I am working on? Do I need to always be working on all of my projects? Keeping on top of everything? Growing and improving in measurable ways? It feels like my mind…

    Break the Habit of Dissatisfied Self-Talk with One Word

    June 4, 2018

    This will likely be a gear shift from what you are used to on my blog. For the last while, I’ve been spending a lot of my time focusing on positivity, good vibes, and self-exploration through activities and changes in actions.

    What is the meaning of life?

    October 3, 2017

    So…I was hospitalized again. A couple weeks ago, I went into another mood bungee jump and ended up in the hospital. At first, I thought it came out of nowhere. I even thought I was ‘missing something’ in my recovery process, since I kept cycling between typical and atypical function. As I reflected, I saw…

    Comparisons don’t make sense

    August 24, 2017

    We are human. We learn by observing others. It is natural to look at another person and assess their behaviours against our own. In some ways, this can help us to become a greater person than yesterday. But I do not think I am alone in the fact that oftentimes, comparisons can become self-destructive. So…

    Are emotions you? Are your thoughts you? What makes you…you?

    May 21, 2017

    Sometimes people ask me what depression and anxiety is like. There are a myriad terms that can be used to describe it, but the best analogy I have found yet is that of a theatre performance in your mind.

    Imperfectionism in a perfectionistic society…

    March 25, 2017

    One topic that really gets me going is the state of our current educational system. It currently rewards students who follow the rules and guidelines of the system to a T, and does not allow for any freedom to explore true passions. All my life I have felt that I was being pushed forward on…
