Whew—this essay breathes fire and softness at once. The courage to own your pleasure, to rewrite old narratives, and to stand in your truth is revolutionary. This is what breaking generational chains looks like in real time.
I truly enjoyed this piece. Your writing carries such heart and precision — it’s clear that every word was chosen with purpose. It lingers long after reading. Excited to see what comes next from you!
