I have spent this past trip around the sun trying to prove myself. "I can be independent" *Moves to California*"I can follow my own path" *Opts to freelance instead getting "a real job"*I crossed off a lot of bucket list items and followed my heart. *Lots and lots of traveling*I felt like I was constantly yelling into the universe "LOOK AT ME!

No Means No

My heart feels like it's on fire right now. Let's talk about what it means to be safe, and stand your ground. I was in the middle of a Law and Order SVU episode when I received a DM from a stranger. This alone does not bother me. I've made many new friends through Instagram and many who have wanted to collaborate on projects. However, I've gotten a few weirdos reaching out too.
