Sing Your Heart Out

As a millennial growing up 90’s and early 00’s, mental health wasn’t a big topic then. I guess to some extend we kind of worked own way to it (am I right millennials? lol). My interest to personal development started in high school when I first read, “The 7th Habits for Highly Effective Teens” by…

Self-observation vs Self-reflection

Guess what, this week is my birthday week – 15th Oct to be precise! 🥳 In the past, I had a lot of insecurities and existential crisis whenever my birthday comes. I felt like birthday is a constant reminder of what I haven’t achieve in life. Guess what, I don’t feel so much of that…

Ternyata seluruh bagian diri saya ingin dipeluk, tidak hanya yang rasanya “baik-baik” atau positif saja. Ternyata memori dan emosi tersebut mengetuk diri saya setahun lebih untuk itu, untuk di akui dan kemudian di lepaskan. Bahwasannya saya adalah manusia biasa yang memiliki berbagai macam emosi seperti lainnya. Hati saya berucap..
