Dear Infj,
You give. You give everything. Your heart, your time, your energy, your attention – and yet, so often, it feels like the world doesn’t see you. You pour yourself into others, believing in connection, in goodness, in the possibility of shared understanding. But instead, you find yourself misunderstood, overlooked, and sometimes even used.

Letting Go: The Hardest Donation I’ve Ever Made
Today I took an enormous carload (literally packed from floor to ceiling ) of clothes to charity. I know it probably sounds simple, but it was honestly one of the hardest things I’ve done in a really long time. Handing over those bags felt like letting go of pieces of myself. And now, I’ll be Continue reading

The Great Closet Purge
I decided to completely annihilate my wardrobe. Like, everything came out. Every hanger. Every bin. Every drawer. My living room is basically a fabric apocalypse right now. We’re talking over twenty years of clothes. Some of it belonged to my mom but most of it’s mine and they represent my moods, my body changes, and Continue reading

Living Simply: Finding Coziness in the Old World
Fall is here and the days get shorter, I naturally slow down. Fall and winter have always been seasons that invite me to slow down my pace, to notice, and of course, to make things cozy. I don’t crave anything glossy or modern this time of year. It’s the mismatched, the handmade and the old Continue reading

Autumn’s Goddess — A Candlelit Night
I’ve finally finished editing my latest video, stepping into the night as autumn’s goddess. Candles flickered all around me, a single pumpkin glowing softly, and I moved slowly, letting the shadows and light trace my steps. Everything felt suspended – the leaves, the air, the hush of the season. Over the video, I read my Continue reading

The Eyes of The INFJ
I’ve always been told I have wandering, expressive eyes when I talk. My eyes just… go places and really express. I see other INFJs do it too and I find that fascinating! It’s like our eyes are doing their own little storytelling while our mouths catch up. Honestly, it makes me feel a bit more Continue reading

Tremor of Stars
Two rivers run, unseen, beneath The skin of stars, where silence keeps. One hums in shadow, one in flame, Yet neither knows the other’s name. A mirror breaks in a language lost, Reflections drift, count no cost. Bones of wind, whispers of rain, Folded inside a secret chain. Time blinks sideways, refusing doors, We are Continue reading

If MBTI Was a Time Machine: Which Era Would You Belong To?
Okay, hear me out. I have this weird theory. Everyone secretly belongs to another time period, like, you’re sitting here scrolling on your phone, but deep down you know your soul is somewhere else entirely. Maybe in a candlelit Paris café, maybe on a hippie commune, maybe running around in shoulder pads in the 80s. Continue reading

My Ideal Home: A Lush, Whimsical Sanctuary
What does your ideal home look like? If I could design my dream home, it wouldn’t be about trends, minimalism, or perfection. It would be warm, eclectic, whimsical, and alive. A sanctuary that breathes and grows with every moment. Traditional at its core, with hints of preppy charm, a little boho, academic sophistication, and playful Continue reading

It’s September!
Rabbit, Rabbit, Rabbit! It’s September 1, and I’ve got my spicy cinnamon and apple candle burning away, filling the house with that warm, cozy scent that instantly makes me feel like fall has arrived, even if it’s still hot and humid outside. There’s something about that mix of spice and sweetness that just feels like Continue reading

The Power and Paradox of Noticing: An INFJ Perspective
I’ve always noticed the things most people don’t. The tiny shifts in someone’s tone, that half second hesitation before a word is spoken, the invisible rhythm in a room the second someone walks in. These details, so easily ignored, are like neon signs to me. My brain maps them without me even thinking about it, Continue reading

New Video: A Pause, A Return, & New Creativity
I took a few weeks away from social media and YouTube to pause, reflect, and recharge. Now I’m back!! I am ready to create, share, and explore ideas with authenticity and joy. Pauses aren’t setbacks; they’re preparation for what comes next. Here’s to creating again, fully and intentionally. Continue reading

Bracing For Fall
When I was little, every season in Washington carried its own kind of magic. Summer was blackberry stained fingers and stubborn sunsets that lingered long after bedtime. Spring was cherry blossoms scattered across wet sidewalks, tulips rising out of soggy earth. Winter was snow on the Cascades, holiday lights against dark evergreens, breath curling white Continue reading

Moonlight
I don’t wait for him. But I notice when he’s gone. Some nights, his light brushes my skin, and I pretend it’s enough. We never speak. But I look up, and he looks back. That’s all we ever do. And somehow, it feels like everything. Continue reading

Jodi Arias: The Horrible, Twisted Shadow INFJ
Disclaimer I want to be crystal clear before we begin: I do not support, excuse, or justify what Jodi Arias did. Her actions were horrific and inexcusable. This piece is a reflection on the darkest corners of the INFJ personality -the shadow self – and how, in rare and tragic cases, it can twist into Continue reading

She Walks in Light Unnamed: Becoming Something Wild and Beautiful
I didn’t know exactly what I was making when I started filming this. I just knew I wanted it to feel like something whispered, like a dream or a spell or a memory I hadn’t lived yet but missed anyway. I went out into the grass in the late afternoon, barefoot, wearing a green dress Continue reading
