Legacy
We think legacy has to be massive: fame, wealth, world-shifting ideas. But the truth? It’s already being written in the everyday. From the way you show up at work to how you love the people around you, legacy is shaped in small actions long before the big ones. This piece reflects on generational shifts, my own hunger for “more,” and why leaving it better than we found it starts right where you are.
Complaining, At What Cost?
We all complain—but do we ever really do anything about it? I’m guilty of it. Guilty as charged. Complaining can serve as a spark, an outlet, even a way to talk yourself into solutions. But too often it becomes a cycle: same gripe, different day, no action. I’ve caught myself turning friends into free therapists, replaying the same story on a loop until even I’m tired of hearing it. The truth is, complaining isn’t the problem. It’s what happens (or doesn’t happen) after.
The Art of Competition
We think of competition as sports, trophies, and scoreboards, but it’s far more ingrained in our daily lives than we realize. From reward systems to biohacking trackers, gamification feeds our instinct to win. Is it healthy motivation, or just another hamster wheel?
I Thought I’d Be Further By Now
I used to think I'd be further by now. You know: smarter, more confident, maybe even have it "figured out." But timelines are strange things. We invent them, chase them, and then punish ourselves when we fall out of sync. This piece isn’t about success. It’s about self-comparison, imposter syndrome, and what it means to still be working on yourself at 28... or any age, really.
