Sometimes I think, “What if I could just turn my humanity off?” 😂

But not for the reasons you might think. More so for the things that make me worry, overthink, or feel anxious.

Flying is a big one.

We fly A LOT, but boy, does that not change how I feel about it. 😂 I’ve gotten so much better, don’t get me wrong, but it still isn’t easy.

I randomly developed a fear of flying in 2018, and I’ll never forget the first flight where I felt nervous. From that moment on, it became a struggle. The 4–5 years that followed were definitely the hardest.

I have to fly home to the other coast for family, so that part is non-negotiable. But the in-between trips? Birthdays, weddings, weekend getaways, trips just because… those are the ones I’ve had to really talk myself into.

I never wanted to become the person who wouldn’t get on a plane because of fear, but I’ve definitely let it stop me a time or two.

My anticipatory anxiety is THE WORST. Once we’re in the air, I’m usually fine, even through some turbulence. It’s the waiting, the build-up, and mostly just wanting to make sure we get safely off the ground (and, of course, safely back down).

I’ve done a lot of work to get through this fear, and while I’ve made significant progress over the years, it still lingers. The difference now is that it doesn’t stop me.

I still get some mild anticipatory anxiety, but instead of starting days before a flight, it’s mostly there when I finally sit down on the plane. And honestly, even that feels like progress.

I’ve even talked to a pilot before, and it helped SO much.

We are not our fears. Sometimes we just have to feel the fear and keep moving anyway. 🤍

Can anyone else relate? What are some things you do to work through anxiety or fears that you know shouldn’t hold you back?

Adulting can be hard.

I think the hardest part for me lately has been realizing just how fast these days are flying by. I get so caught up doing the things that HAVE to be done instead of the things I actually want to do. By the time I finally feel like I can take a breath and enjoy myself, the day is already over.

And I don’t want that to come across like I don’t love what I do, because I absolutely do. I’ll never take that for granted. There’s just a clear difference between doing something because it’s “mandatory” and doing something simply because it brings you joy.

I still have fun doing my jobs, but lately, I’ve been living for those little mini-obsessions I pick up along the way. The random things that help break up the routine and ease some of that tension that comes with being an adult.

Those obsessions make me feel like a kid again, and I LOVE anything that can give me that feeling.

Lately it’s been Pokémon. 😂

That was THE obsession of my childhood. Between the games and the cards, Pokémon was everything. Ripping open packs, collecting badges, playing for hours… it all teleports me back to a time when life was as simple as trying to “catch ’em all.”

My dad would still be alive, telling me I’m spending way too much time on “Fuckemon,” and I’d be begging my parents for the newest game.

The good days.

And honestly, I could never be mad at companies for “nostalgia baiting.”

That shit literally heals me. 

We all love us a "bad guy turned good", but which side of them is truly the best?!

Do we like lover boy Klaus or paranoid, on-edge Klaus? Love-struck Damon or edgy, bad boy Damon?

Or do we just love both :)
