There something about influencers.
That word carries weight now ... financial, cultural, emotional. It’s a job. A performance. A feed of curated glimpses.
But it’s rarely real.
It’s not the piles of unfolded laundry. It’s not the missed appointments, the low-energy mornings, the quiet shame of feeling like you’re not enough.
What it could be - what I hope it becomes - is something softer. Something braver. Not about faking perfection, but about showing up honestly.
There’s a different kind of strength in saying: I’m tired. I’m trying. I’m here.
We’ve spent so long rewarding polished lives.But maybe the world is ready to reward realness.
I hope we get there.To a place where vulnerability isn’t a weakness ... it’s a sign you’re alive.
A world where being yourself, fully and unapologetically, is the goal ... not a detour on the way to some illusion.
Let’s stop chasing the perfect version of life.
Let’s build a better one ... grounded, messy, human, and true.
Let’s become the core us.
