About

I spent years writing on the internet about unlearning people-pleasing and embodying clear, kind, brave communication under the brand The Hearty Fig.

I’ve since closed that chapter—though if that speaks to you, you’ll find several of those articles and resources right over here.

These days, I write essays on Substack that dive into uncertainty and explore unexpected connections. There you’ll find research-driven personal essays that weave together lived experience with fascinations and sharp-toothed questions—and tangle with questions of identity, connection, and womanhood.
