If you’ve ever felt like your mind is running a mile a minute, always alert, scanning the room, the people, the energy—you’re not alone. I’ve been there too. For a while, I honestly thought I just had anxiety. But after digging deeper (and going through more than one late-night rabbit hole of research and therapy…
If you’ve ever found yourself squinting at a random speck floating across your vision, only to be distracted moments later by a high-pitched ringing in your ears, you’re not alone. For years, I brushed off these two strange annoyances—eye floaters and tinnitus—as unrelated quirks of getting older. But it turns out, there may be more…
So, let’s talk about something a lot of women deal with but rarely bring up in casual conversation: weird discharge. Yep, I said it. Discharge. I’ve had my fair share of googling “what does this color mean?” at 2 AM. One thing that really stood out for me was the question, “does bacterial vaginosis cause…

But when they stuck around longer than expected—dancing across the blue sky with every glance—I realized I wasn’t alone. Turns out, high-altitude adventures can…
Let me be real with you—dealing with bacterial vaginosis (BV) on a monthly basis is mentally and physically exhausting. I’ve been there. That recurring itch, the unfamiliar odor, the non-stop googling and second-guessing your hygiene habits or even diet choices—it’s a rabbit hole.
