Nadia. Every time! I read your letters, and I want to say so much. But it leaves such an impression that quiet reflection is the most I can give. This Nadia was a movie. We are all the main characters. I saw myself in every frame. I am excited for you. For everyone quietly dreaming of something better. Let’s go!

I think you’ve given words to how so so many people are feeling (I’ve forwarded this to a few). You’ve illuminated many of the challenges we are living within under this structure - we don’t live in a vacuum & we so need the community you’ve envisioned in your writing, so please keep on doing it!

I love this and I love you. My life is so much better because you are my friend and I am excited about celebrating letting go of shit we just don’t need and making something better.

"This is the beauty of growing with life.

You have no idea of the versions of you that await. The versions that are possible." - this bit really was beautiful! What a fabulous read Nadia - really, really well written! 😄

The splitting open. The snake skin. New versions we didn’t know existed. I love this!

I was sold the girl boss dream for a long time and thought getting rich would allow me to help more people- but I burned out chasing it and ironically went broke, and realized- this isn’t it. I’m back to basics with my declutter business, realizing just how culty the new age magical thinking had become. I no longer subscribe to the law of attraction and can’t believe I ever did, but I did.

I got engaged a few months ago and everyone wants to see the ring right away. But it’s a simple band for now, what he could afford, and soon enough he’ll get a sparkly gem ring to go with it. I’ve been having to decipher how much I really want that for myself vs having something to show people, to prove I belong or fit in- what turns out to be an odd, traditional, capitalistic matrix.

Lots to process, thank you for this!

Thank you for being here Ashley and for sharing your thoughts openly ❤️ it's so crucial that we face ourselves, our choices and motivations and make brave and honest choices. Or else nothing will change. I applaud you for it! Thank you!

the picture attached to this captures the entire piece in it. That stare outside of the window is one of wonder and wander.

Nadia. Profound. Perfect. An insightful and inspiring post, full of truth and beauty. I stumbled across "They want us to be peaceful while they only speak war" a couple of hours ago - and was totally blown away. It was truly incredible. I'm glad that I've discovered your writing - I'm thirsty for more.
