by a thing we’re trying

Two friends who met in an online community while experiencing burnout; figuring out how to live in a way that feels safe, sustainable, and fun. It may not always look the way we’ve been told it’s ‘supposed to’ but we’re not the type to go through the motions or always do what we’re told. We know following our own path and going at our own pace is not always aesthetic, but we think it’s worth it. This is a space for exploring the edges of our comfort zones through trial & error. Follow along as we try things and share our experiences in hopes that we can all find our way together.
