choosing nourishment, evolving patience
2025

The first quarter of this year brought new levels of burnout. This collage features three different self-portraits in repetition, documenting my journey of restoration and exhaustion. Through this period, I slowed my pace, making sacrifices to honor my needs. I invested time cooking nourishing meals, maintaining a disciplined sleep routine, connecting deeply with loved ones, and embracing a gentler rhythm. I prioritized only what actively replenished me and maintained faith that everything else would unfold as it's meant to.
