🕳️ What Parts of Me Do I Still Own, If the Rest Are Already Archived in Someone’s Scroll?
A quiet rebellion against visibility culture—for the girl who’s tired of being watched, even in her healing. We grew up with memory cards and cloud backups.Now, our stories don’t live in our minds or our bodies.They live in highlights, folders, and other people’s saved tabs. But in the race to be understood, we forgot to ask:What parts of me do I still get to keep? 🧠“I Don’t Want to Be the Main Character—I Just Want to Live Without an Audience.” There’s a difference between sharing and performing.Between being seen and being watched. Every mundane moment now begs to be captured,every emotion a chance for engagement. But what if you…

🕯️Social Media Is Not Our Birthplace — It’s a Marketplace.
🫧 We Mistook the Internet for Intimacy: Why Privacy is the New Power A reflection for South Asian girls reclaiming quiet, sacred space in a culture of constant sharing. There was a time when silence wasn’t suspicious.When privacy wasn’t performance.When your thoughts could belong to you, and not a “Notes app caption” waiting to go live. But now, even our healing has to look like content.Even our breakdowns are packaged into soft vulnerability with pastel filters and Canva quotes. This post is for the girl who’s tired of turning every emotion into a post.The girl who craves intimacy—but keeps giving it away for free. 🤳🏽 “We Were Not Born on…

đź–¤ Digital Dissonance
A reality check for South Asian girls who feel disconnected from their online reflections. We scroll through polished snapshots of lives—ours included—and forget that most of them are edited, filtered, and algorithmically arranged.But what happens when the curated version of “you” starts to feel more real than the one living behind the screen?

🥀 Emotional Disconnect & The Inner Self
A guide for South Asian girls who crave stillness in a world that calls it laziness. In a culture where every moment is documented, shared, and packaged for engagement, it’s easy to forget what life feels like when no one’s watching.This isn’t about unplugging for aesthetics.This is about coming home to yourself—even when it’s quiet.Even when it’s not “interesting.” 🌿 “Why Does My Most Peaceful Self Feel So Boring Online?” You’re not sad. Not angry. Not thriving.Just… peaceful. And yet, peace feels unshareable. It doesn’t grab attention.It doesn’t come with a filter.It doesn’t “perform” well. Healing is happening—but it’s slow, internal, unglamorous.You’re learning to breathe, rest, exist.But online, that looks…

🪞 The Mirror Without the Camera: Quiet Confidence in a World That’s Always Watching
Short-form introspective essays for the girl who’s learning to be real—even when no one’s reacting. Would I Still Love My Life If No One Was Watching?” You decorated your room. Bought the books. Lit the candle.Everything looks beautiful… but why does it still feel empty?

Confidence in the Age of Content
Somewhere between “be yourself” and “build your brand,”we were taught to monetize our identity.Suddenly, your quirks became content.Your sadness became aesthetic.Your every opinion had to be “on brand.” You’re not just a person anymore.You’re a potential niche.And if you’re not optimizing yourself for visibility,it feels like you’re wasting your potential. So we ask:Am I falling behind—or just refusing to be a product? “I Don’t Want to Be a Product, But I Don’t Know Who I Am Without Performing” What happens when self-expression starts to feel like survival?When everything you post is a calculation—every word, every outfit, every emotion crafted for perception? You weren’t always this way.There was a time when…

🌀 Rhetorical Questions to Spark Conversation
A Blog Post for the Quietly Growing, Softly Struggling, and Still-Here Anyway Confidence used to mean feeling good.Now it means looking like you feel good.Add a ring light.Add a trending sound.Add “authenticity”—but keep it digestible. We were told: “Just be yourself.”But that only works if your self is clickable, brandable, and algorithm-friendly. “Why Do We Feel Behind When We’re Not Building a Brand Out of Our Personality?” You’re ambitious. Thoughtful. Talented.But you’re not “out there.” You don’t post every day.You’ve got depth—but not a digital portfolio of your every micro-milestone. So suddenly, you feel like you’re lagging behind.Not in growth.Not in healing.But in visibility. And that’s where it stings.Because the…
