The heart doesn’t make sense most of the time, which is why it’s much more fun to follow it!

You are a wonderful writer and I look forward to reading more xx

I said it in my note when I restacked this post, but this is one of the most inspiring things I've read in a long time. I've always been a writer, but it's been a long time since any of my work has seen the light of day. I recently became a new mom, and I've been toying with the idea of starting a Substack to both chronicle my thoughts on parenthood, but also to give myself a creative outlet-- something for myself to remind me to be my own person. I kept getting hung up on the idea that it would need to be perfectly planned out to start. Your post reminded me that it doesn't need to be, and if I waited for it to be perfect, I'd likely never start. This is the inspiration I needed to pick up the pen again. Thank you! Subscribed and looking forward to every post.

Welcome! I’m pretty new here too and it does feel daunting to share your own writing (I’m also a copywriter) I’ve been devouring podcasts to hear about other people’s journeys starting out and finding lots of encouragement in hearing their stories. Can’t wait to hear more about your passions, especially tarot! 🌀
