If you’re struggling with showing up, sharing your art, expressing yourself, and yet, you have this deep urge to create and longing for sharing your art/your truth with the world, please know you’re not alone.

Switching from Inner Critic to Inner Loving as a default mode changed my life. It is like the roots of a tree, healthily planted into the ground, and nourished by a fertile soil.From this self-love, everything else will grow and flow through you. I know it sounds cliché, but love is truly the biggest creative force in the world.

I used to look for guidance, for answers everywhere but within. Same for my emotional needs. Going on solo trips or eating out on my own at restaurants would freak me out. You know what I mean?Now I revel in my solo time - it’s so precious! Because the best cure to loneliness as an HSP is time in silence and solitude.

Life is not a long flowy river! It’s messy, it gets topsy turvy, it goes up and down, just like the intense emotions we tend to feel as a Highly Sensitive Person. It’s messy, it’s painful, it’s beautiful, it’s full of surprises ✨ And when it feels like a HOT mess, overwhelm shows up big time for us, HSPs. Remaining regulated so that our nervous system can work its wonders doesn’t have to be as complicated as some influencers lead us to know on social media.

This is part 3 of my sensitive and creative journey across the globe. After 7 years in London, I came back to Paris, only leaving again a few years later. And this time, for Shanghai. Ready to discover other sides of fashion, and more importantly, to explore the world. A story of losing my way and finding it again, and connecting to my creativity and sensitivity✨✨✨
