A Postcard from the Future đź’•
1 year can feel so long, yet 10 years pass in the blink of an eye.
10 years ago, many women were taught to run the world, like Beyonce. 10 years later, they are learning to return to themselves to soften, to be vulnerable, and to accept who they are, like Olivia Dean. đź’•
Because they are already enough. 🫶
10/10 Notes.

A Postcard from Past, Present, Future
Dearest Papa,
For twenty years, I asked God to make me strong.
Now, I am learning to ask for something different.
I simply want to be present. đź’•
A Postcard from Sanur 🏝
In moments of reflection, many of us fear public speaking not because we lack ability, but because we are afraid of being judged.
Sometimes we push ourselves to sound smart, cool, or inspiring.
Yet the most important part of speaking is simply helping others understand what we mean.
For me, the truest test is telling a story to kindergarten children.
You say it slowly.
You repeat it gently.
Until the message lands in a way they can truly receive.
Postcard from Sanur Beach 🌊
In 2023, I celebrated my birthday with a surf session at Rip Curl School of Surf. Afterwards, I casually told the coach that I might need to stay in Bali for a year to have more time, to learn, to grow with the waves.
A year later, life answered in its own way. In mid-2024, circumstances shifted, and I chose to take a one-year sabbatical. Bali became my place of rest, recalibration, and return.
As the sabbatical drew to a close, just before stepping back into full work, I met the coach once again. This time, not to talk about surfing, but to share a quiet realization: that every word we speak is a prayer. And in sacred places, especially by the sea, where energy is vast and alive, our words deserve greater care and consciousness.
The Year of the Horse is beginning.
A year of movement, momentum, and alignment.
May we become clear vessels to receive good grace.
I walk in alignment with God’s will. 🤲🙏
A Postcard from My Heart đź’•
I’m writing this because I only truly learned it in my 30s.
I hope this helps anyone who reads it feel a little more understood and supported.
Growing up, we were taught about the menstrual cycle mainly to predict pregnancy or to be cautious. What we were rarely told is that each cycle carries a different kind of energy, and that life feels more balanced when we live in alignment with it.
Women’s bodies and men’s bodies are deeply different.
Not as a separation but as a reminder.
A reminder that we are not meant to compete, but to complement one another.
There are things women cannot do that men can and many things only women can do. And that is where the beauty lies.
In my 30s, through one of my biggest lessons, hormonal imbalance, I began to understand myself more deeply and started making small but meaningful alignments in how I live.
This is a simplified reflection, filtered from many sources.
If it becomes a gentle reminder for you, I’m grateful.
At the very least, it is a reminder for myself.

For the first time in Girls Day Out Goes Surfing Vol. 2, we opened a space to express ourselves.
Through journaling, simple drawings, and small paper installations, this became a place to pause, feel, and let what’s inside gently come out.
Because before riding waves outside, we listen to the ones within.
