note on: saying no and boundaries 101

Hello, hello! This is the pilot episode of the new series, "note on"! This series focuses more on topics that concern the average eldest daughter: setting boundaries, cultural expectations, mental health, friendships and dating, and finding your voice beyond family duty, among many other topics! The series is more in-depth, exploring my own personal journeys with these topics, some journal prompts I utilized to work through the tough moments, as well as practical tips and reminders to help fellow eldest daughters (and anyone else tuning in). "note on" is a project that I hold close to my heart and I hope you're able to take something away from it, even if it's just one piece of the puzzle we call life!
