Despre dor, fără să fug
Am reînceput să scriu. Nu pentru că mi-a fost neapărat dor de cuvinte, ci pentru că vreau să mă întorc la mine. Nu prin gânduri fugare sau prin nopți tulburate de vise apăsătoare, ci prin liniște. Printr-o carte deschisă. Prin momentele în care aleg să mă opresc atunci când gândurile devin prea multe, când inima… Continue reading

Înapoi la mine
Am fugit de mine, Cătălina.Ani la rând te-am împins într-un colț rece, tăcut — exact genul de loc de care mereu mi-a fost teamă. E ironic… am fugit de frig, de spații strâmte, dar acolo te-am lăsat pe tine. Aș vrea să spun că îmi pare rău. Și, poate, o parte din mine chiar simte… Continue reading

A Letter from the Middle of the Storm
This week has been another whirlwind. Between medical appointments, finally closing some chapters, beginning physiotherapy, and a few small self-care moments, I somehow made it through. It almost feels unreal that tomorrow is already Friday. And yet, even in the middle of the noise and the pain, I could still hear myself. Somewhere beneath the… Continue reading

The Unexpected Lessons of Being Still
It’s been a while since my last post. Mostly because I didn’t quite feel like writing. And when you’re not feeling your best, writing, no matter how much you love it, can sometimes feel more like a chore than a passion. These days, I’ve simply been doing my best. Helping around the house when I… Continue reading

Slow Healing Starts Here
For today’s post, I wanted to begin something I’ve been putting off for a long time—writing more honestly, more consistently, and maybe… more usefully. So I’m starting with a topic that became very real for me: lower back issues and back pain in general. I still remember when I first stepped into office work. It… Continue reading

Between Burnout and Becoming
I’ve had time to sit with myself lately. Not the kind of quiet you choose, not the kind wrapped in candles and intention—but the kind that finds you when everything else stops. It didn’t come from mindfulness. It came from being forced to pause. Somewhere along the way, I misplaced myself. Between endless to-do lists,… Continue reading

Choose Yourself: The Discipline That Becomes Love
There’s something that always makes me pause when a new year begins. January arrives, fresh and hopeful, and suddenly everyone is making plans: to get in shape, to eat better, to build healthier habits, to finally become a better version of themselves. But there’s one thing that often disappears after the excitement fades. Discipline. Commitment.… Continue reading

Wild and Holy
Today, work tested me. It reminded me of something uncomfortable but true: you can give your best, pour your heart into what you do, and still be met with someone else’s worst. And part of growth is learning to make peace with that. Looking at the outcome, I understood there’s always a choice. You can… Continue reading
