I truly loved this! I never realized how isolating pursuing creative work can be but it strangely also part of the process in allowing yourself to be seen without too much outside influence. The table may look like it's for one right now but over time you'll be surprised to find a community of people eager to sit alongside with you!

What beautiful words, Nkem! I truly appreciate the kind words. And you definitely see the vision 🤩 I hope the time in between starting and outside recognition can continue to be a celebration and cherished time to evolve into one of many versions of the best self for every creative 🤞🏾

Thank you for speaking on creativity so frankly and vulnerably. Indeed oftentimes it's a lonesome journey in finding your footing, artistic voice, vision, and all that. It's wonderful when there are others who support your endeavors and root for you. You are that kind of person who is so supportive and loving and compassionate with others, and I hope you keep finding such people along your path.

Thank you so much for this feedback, Nadia! Though I am so grateful to have my digital community growing and share my metaphorical table with beautiful energies like you, I hope this piece can help those craving the physical connection to stay strong in the journey and hopeful that one day soon we will be able to connect with like-minded people regularly in person ✨ Creativity is definitely better when a creative is able to find solace offline in the world around them.

I absolutely agree. Offline life is as important as online. A good balance of both is key! <3
