It’s been a few months, and while some incredible things have happened in my life, I’ve also spent a lot of time reflecting. At some point this year, I realized that my time in my former community had started to go against everything I originally built it for.
What began as a space for creativity, connection, and growth somehow turned into the opposite.
As harsh as it sounds, when you’re constantly surrounded by people who speak only from a place of misery or sorrow, it seeps into your own mindset. It’s like you start mirroring the energy around you without even realizing it. And when that was compounded by people in my real life dealing with serious issues, I found myself without any real space to breathe no genuine reprieve from all the heaviness.
Stepping away was uncomfortable (compounded by unnecessary drama), but it’s been freeing. Building a circle of people who are driven, supportive, and genuinely trying to grow has felt like lifting a weight I didn’t know I was carrying. The difference in how I feel and how I think is night and day.
I guess positive attitudes really do change everything. If I could go back, I’d focus less on trying to fit into a space that wasn’t serving me, and more on creating and protecting the kind of environment I actually wanted to grow in.
I have a desire to create; and my job provides that outlet for me and now I have the ability and the mental capacity to do it for myself.
It’s about damn time.
