I need to confess that the title was meant to be a little attention grabbing. I won’t be going off this platform indefinitely, just temporarily. Life has gotten quite hectic recently, and I can’t keep up with creating content the way I intended to. Not just content, but quality content. In

I’ve been keeping up with modelling training lately, and here are a few things I’ve learnt about dating someone in the industry: 1. Security matters more than looks. Attractive people will naturally receive attention. If you’re constantly comparing yourself to others or worrying about every in

Have you ever noticed that the loudest vessels are often the emptiest, and the meanest accounts on social media are usually the ones with no substance, no content, and seemingly no soul? Ever since social media became mainstream, we’ve seen a rise in internet trolls and people who seem strangely

Ever notice a pattern? The moment you express discomfort, set a boundary, or say no to something you don’t want to do, some people suddenly have an opinion about your character. You’re “mean,” “unreasonable,” “selfish,” or “difficult.” But often, what they’re really upset about isn’t your behavi

How much lying is too much when it comes to a relationship? I’ve pondered this question for quite some time, trying to understand the line between presenting the best version of yourself and being authentic with a new partner. I understand that falling in love can be terrifying. Sometimes you

Who said healing was supposed to be pretty? The matcha latte. Pilates. Mindfulness. Meditation. The aesthetic social media posts about choosing yourself and finding peace. Somehow healing is always marketed as this beautiful, therapeutic experience where you glow up, journal your feelings, and m

Neglected this space because I’ve been obsessed with exercising lately. I’ve been going to the gym as well as skating, and it’s been doing wonders for me because I do receive negativity on a daily basis. I’ve been consistently clocking my exercise easily four times a week — lifting weights or do

1. Sigmund Freud — your unconscious is running the show, not you. 2. Carl Jung — the parts of you that you hide end up controlling you. 3. Abraham Maslow — you cannot find purpose before you find safety. 4. Viktor Frankl — suffering becomes bearable the moment it has meaning. 5. B.F. Sk

1. Not everything deserves your reaction. Silence is not weakness—it is mastery. Reacting with anger is like holding hot coal expecting others to burn. Let go, and you free yourself first. 2. Choose your inner circle wisely. Energy is contagious. Stay around those who nourish your mind,

Wise words, spoken by a 50-year-old woman — and I had to learn from the very best. You see, the way you react to people is a reflection of yourself — both your strength and your wounds. If something said by an insignificant person in your life makes you panic, it reveals where you’re still hurti

As a creator and a counsellor, someone who uses social media to reach, educate, and observe, I have had the privilege of watching people closely. Over time, I started noticing something about Singapore’s online culture that does not sit right with me. The bullying. I have spent more than a ye

If you feel the need to find out about your ex’s new relationship, the problem is with you. If your ex’s new partner told your husband that you reached out to both your ex and her, you were the catalyst. You initiated this cascade of events. If your husband is unhappy and acting distant after

When you’re in a relationship and you realise that you need to be loved in a certain way, and cared for in a certain way — it is not unreasonable. It is not “too much.” It is not overly demanding to ask for what you need. Think about it this way. You cannot love someone fully if you don’t fee

I’ve been sitting with this question for a while now. How do you explain something that lives inside your body… to someone who has never had to carry it? How do you explain anxiety to someone who has never felt their chest tighten for no reason, who has never had their mind spiral into places

1. Emotional regulation (no rage, stonewalling, or silent treatment) 2. Accountability — owns mistakes without defensiveness 3. Self-awareness about past relationships 4. No unresolved obsession with an ex 5. Willingness to grow and self-reflect 6.&

To love is to make yourself vulnerable — to trust someone with your tender places and hope they handle them with care. Relationships become mirrors, revealing our insecurities, fears, and unmet needs through everyday triggers and conflicts. These moments aren’t signs something is wrong; they are in

You met a guy and you hit it off with him from the very beginning. Conversations flowed easily and effortlessly. You were interested in him, and he expressed interest in you. Things were going smoothly. Then he asked you out on a date. You both had an amazing time. Things were still going smo

Always remember this: many men are hardwired to want to make their partner happy … when they see the value in her. They are hardwired to make changes to make their partner happy. Not because they are selfless saints, and not because of rigid traditional roles, but because it makes sense. A peac

“He cheated.” “Your relationship is a train wreck.” These were some comments from my previous post. I understand your points. They’re valid. It was probably spoken from a place of care — well-intended advice shaped by your own experiences. So why didn’t I leave? Why did I post? In my
