I’ve never been good at writing about myself in a “get to know me” kind of way, not even when prepping for job interviews. I've never enjoyed small talk, not until recently. It’s just I would rather delve deep immediately. If you take the time to read the thoughts that spill out of my brain and onto this website, you’ll learn more about me in one sitting than people who have known me for years.

One of the real horrors of life is being unseen, unheard and feeling you have no connection to anyone else. I started writing because I needed to feel seen so badly. If you read what I’ve written and it resonates with you, then you have seen me in a way that I’ve always wanted. Know that I see you too. You’ll never be alone because now you know that there is someone else out in the world who sees it in the way that you do.

I hope that gives you the peace of mind that it’s given me.

With love,

Ashanti
