Unfortunately, “no school November” has come to an end, and with that marks the transition into the holiday season. While my state hasn’t had any snow just yet, I can smell that freezing flurry looming in the air. I am looking forward to building snowmen with my little sister, experiencing my brother feeling the magic […]

Picture this: a friend of yours confronts you with a problem they are going through, maybe a break up or family drama, distraught and upset. They are coming to you in a hard-to-approach state, and you don’t know what to do. We’ve all been there, myself included. It seems like a daunting situation, one that […]

One thing I’ve always struggled with is perfectionism. As someone with a lot of anxiety, I often feel like everything I do has to either be done “right” or not at all, because the fear of failing—or, at least, the fear of not meeting my own expectations—is overwhelming.

There’s a stack of unfinished assignments sitting in front of you, and you just got done a very intense five minutes of listing everything else you had to do before total relaxation could be achieved.

Setting boundaries is important, but has become even more so with the COVID-19 pandemic. While we have set strict physical boundaries to stop the spread of the virus, it’s also imperative that we set personal boundaries in order to properly take care of ourselves and our mental health. Our personal boundaries are kind of like […]

There are many things that can feel outside our control in life. With recent events, this notion has been further strengthened for each of us. Both on a world wide scale and perhaps on an individual scale, many are facing fears related to the things not within their power. Each of us face unique situations […]

Life isn’t butterflies and rainbows. This is something we all know painfully well. Reality isn’t something we can run away or take a break from. Mistakes are made, we fall short of our expectations for ourselves, and no matter how hard we try, things still go wrong. I know that sometimes life doesn’t make sense […]
