OR AT LEAST MINE IS?
LIFE IS AN ORGANIZED MESS
What Does An Organized Mess Look Like?
What Is This About?
The Concept:
An organized mess is all about embracing the imperfections of life. I am a single African American woman in my mid twenties that has always struggled with perfectionism. Now I am choosing to embrace the imperfections and am on the journey of living life on the lighter side.
What Is The Purpose?
The Mission:
I wanted to create a space where I can have a creative outlet to release these emotions in a healthy way as I am embarking on this new journey. How fun would it be to be able to create a community of women sharing these struggles and to be anonymous!!!
Why Start This Now?
The Timing:
I have been in therapy for about seven months now and am in the process of working on obtaining licensure for my career field. A lot of time that I have between work, social life or obligations, study, and other life stressors has lead to this feeling within myself that a lot of time is not my own. When I do have free moments I typically spend it scrolling on social media, overeating, or binge watching reality television shows. I have not found a fun outlet for me to express myself outside of journaling and venting to my therapist or loved ones. Quite frankly, I also feel that I am starting to sound like a broken record here. Being an over thinker is just the icing on the cake. There was no better time for me to find something fun that allows me to express myself without a true audience!
