How Burnout, A Breathwork Session and A Lot of "Random Jobs" Led Me To Create HORIZON
I was putting in the work !!! Not into the grind, but into myself. Each day I spent time on my practices. I felt like they were guiding me, slowly, but steadily, toward the person I actually wanted to be. I can't remember the exact day I decided I wanted to create something like HORIZON.

When 'Doing More' Did The Opposite. Hint: It Made Everything Worse
Before the social media marketing business began, I'd gone on a retreat overseas.

I Realised That Burnout Doesn't Always Look Like 'Falling Apart'
I saw some posts about burnout and thought... wait, is that me? Turns out it doesn't always look like your life falling apart. Sometimes it's way more subtle than that.
