Getting comfortable with being uncomfortable

Why I am doing this

Over the last year and a half, I’ve been on a deeply personal healing journey. It’s involved a lot of unlearning—letting go of beliefs that no longer served me—and learning how to embrace stillness. I’ve worked hard to remove chaos from my life and allow space for reflection, for peace, and for growth.

I’ve spent hours journaling, quietly processing, writing poetry that I’ve never had the courage to share—fearing judgment, vulnerability, exposure. But through this process, I’ve come to a place where I’m no longer afraid of being alone with my thoughts and feelings.

I now feel empowered in my solitude.

This challenge isn’t just symbolic—it’s personal. Sitting in that square, in silence, will be a powerful representation of everything I’ve been working toward. It will also give me the space to focus on what comes next.
