What to Expect.
This is the rhythm I’m writing in. It’s not rigid, it’s real. Some days are heavy, some are soft, and all of them are honest. I’m putting my journal entries into formulated blog posts, so my writing is daily, as I have been journaling while in therapy since February 2025. (This schedule is likely to change, so check back on the 1st of every month!)
