How i’m planning my comeback era (college edt.)

Mindset Reset

When I left NYC, I felt like I was stepping backward. But now I realize I was just stepping back to realign.

My goal this time isn’t to rush back, it’s to come back ready. I’m rebuilding my confidence, discipline, and clarity before I move again. This season is about peace, not pressure, about returning as someone who’s grounded, not just busy.

Laying the Groundwork

I’ve been focusing on creating a foundation that’ll actually support the life I want in the city.

💻 Working + teaching Pilates

💰 Building savings and a paper trail for apartment applications

🧘‍♀️ Prioritizing structure and routine

📚 Planning my class schedule with balance in mind

I’m realizing the prep work is just as important as the comeback itself.

The Vision

When I think about my NYC comeback, I picture mornings with Toby in Central Park, Pilates before class, and a small apartment that feels calm and intentional.

This time around, I’m chasing sustainability over chaos, a life that feels like me instead of one that just looks impressive.

My comeback era isn’t about returning to who I was, it’s about showing up as who I’ve grown into. 🤍
