Some doors need to close!
Rejection, gaslighting, ostracism, blacklisting, cancelling, silencing – yep, I’ve had my fair share of it too!
But honestly? I’ve started to see those “no’s” as doors closing so the right ones can swing wide open. Sometimes life reroutes us in ways that make zero sense at the time… but later you look back and think, ahh, that’s why!
I’ve been through a lot, survived a lot, and I’m still here – helping, fighting, thriving. And I’ll keep on going, because that’s just me.
So challenge what needs challenging, keep your voice loud, and remember: our journeys matter – even if others don’t always understand them.

A playful sketch of a skeleton and a cat travelling together through green hills and blue-white mountains. Bright star-like flowers dot the grass, and ahead of them glows a yellow-blue spiral portal. The text reads: “How lucky I am to close doors not meant for me, because it creates space for the ones that are.”
