The Transition into Adulthood

Greetings y’all!

Lately, the central theme in my life has been my vision. I've been pondering what I want from my current pursuits, my career, my podcast, and my aspirations in modeling. What are my true desires, and how must I commit myself daily to achieve them?

The honest truth is, that I'm in the midst of transitioning into adulthood, and it feels rather peculiar. It's undeniably challenging, requiring me to present a different version of myself. The energy, the workload, and the discipline needed can feel daunting at times. It's not that I lack the capability to put in the effort; it's more about navigating the necessary changes. I'm making progress, one day at a time, even though it might not be the most glamorous phase. I'm learning to embrace it; this is simply part of adulting.

Adulting means making the essential changes in our lives to reach our desired destination one day. It's tough, but it's an indispensable journey towards our ultimate reality. During these seasons, it's crucial to accept the challenging days and stay committed to the work. It's about working diligently and maintaining discipline to attain our freedom. For me, freedom means thriving and engaging in activities that bring me joy. It involves living in the places I want to live, having the freedom to travel whenever and wherever, and ultimately shaping my time according to my desires. However, I acknowledge that to achieve this, I must endure a less pleasant phase. And that's perfectly fine; it's part of the process.

How do you envision your life? What are your aspirations in your current endeavors, and where do you want them to lead you? Remember that the destination can only be reached by traversing the journey, and not all paths are straight and easy. Reflect on it – do all the places you visit daily have a direct route on the map? No, so why expect life's destinations to be easily attainable?

I'm currently 23, and I'm in the process of truly stepping up for myself, and embracing the person I genuinely want to become this season. It demands self-awareness and acceptance of the challenge of growing up. I'm building a sturdy foundation for the next phase of my life. It won't be effortless, but I wholeheartedly embrace the challenge.

I hope that sharing this perspective offers you new insights. Understand that our realities are shaped by how we present ourselves to the world. It may be tough to accept, but it's the truth.

P.S. As I continue to grow, so will this newsletter and my podcast. Positive changes are to come.

Until next time!

xoxo,
