Never in my (younger) life did I think that becoming an adult would be such a blurry and messy process.

I will never cease to be surprised by the amount of daily hard work one puts themselves through in order to preserve their sanity.

▫️Never ending decision-making

▪️Responsibilities

▫️Societal Pressure

▪️Inhibition

▫️Emotional Baggage

▪️Relationships

A non-exhaustive list we carry around wherever we go.

Yes, becoming an adult is a natural part of life but does it have to be mentally and physically exhausting?

The taboo around the difficulty of adulthood should be lifted.

It is about time we admit that the package that comes with adulting is heavy.

The impact it has on our mental health should not be viewed as a normality.

It needs to be discussed rather than being ignored.

I often have to explain this to my clients as the pressure some of us put on themselves is excessively normalised when it should not.

Being an adult is difficult, so please remember to give your mind and your heart a break from time to time. You need it.

With Love & Awareness,

Carola.
