I've Learned A Lot In Navigating Survival Mode

Learning To Stop Over Explaining And Giving Myself To Everyone

In this episode of The Life of a Multifacet, I’m talking about why I had to stop explaining myself so much and why not everybody deserves the real me. I get into what it looks like when you’re someone who thrives off connection, shows up deeply for people, and gives others a lot of your energy, only to realize that same energy isn’t always being returned. Sometimes you keep trying to explain your heart, your intentions, your perspective, and your emotions to people who were never trying to fully understand you in the first place. This episode is really about learning how to stop spreading yourself thin, stop giving everybody full access to your mind and spirit, and start recognizing that you can give less while still being just as valuable. It’s also about boundaries, emotional awareness, and understanding that protecting your peace doesn’t make you cold — it makes you wiser.

Trust Me...Less Is Way More In The Content World

In this episode of The Life of a Multifacet, I’m talking about why less is more when it comes to building your brand through social media. I get into how easy it is to feel pressure to post more, chase the algorithm, and act like you have to constantly put content out just to stay relevant. But what I’ve been realizing is that building a real brand is more about telling your story in a way that feels natural, intentional, and sustainable instead of forcing nonstop content just to keep up. I also talk about how different parts of my brand work together, why backlogged content can still have value, how giving people space to grow with your story matters, and why trying to do too much too fast can actually take away from the brand you’re trying to build. This episode is really about pacing, authenticity, and learning how to trust that the right people will connect with what you’re building over time.

This is How My Most Recent Keloid Surgery Went Pt.2

In this episode of The Life of a Multifacet, I continue my recent keloid journey and break down what happened after the procedure, the radiation process, and everything that came with trying to heal while still showing up for myself. I talk about traveling back and forth from New York to New Jersey for the surgery, choosing to take the train instead of spending hundreds on a ride, dealing with swelling, healing, discomfort, and still pushing through the process with confidence. I also get into the radiation experience, the conversations I had along the way, and how this whole journey reminded me that resilience shows up in more ways than one. This episode is bigger than just skincare. It’s about not letting insecurity, setbacks, or outside opinions stop you from continuing to build yourself. Even when something comes back, even when life doesn’t go how you planned, that doesn’t mean all your progress disappeared. It’s all part of the story.

This is How My Most Recent Keloid Surgery Went Pt.1

In this episode of The Life of a Multifacet, I’m giving a real update on part three of my recent keloid removal process and breaking down what the surgery experience was actually like from start to finish. I talk about the difference between going under local versus anesthesia, the pre-op process, the medications they give you, what it was like getting up at 3 in the morning to travel from New York to New Jersey for the procedure, and how the full surgery day played out. I also get into the conversations I had with Dr. Jones, how this process came full circle for me, and why it means so much to be in a place now where I can use my story to help other people dealing with keloids and skincare issues. This episode is really about more than just the procedure itself. It’s about healing, persistence, impact, and continuing to turn one of the hardest parts of my journey into something that can reach and support other people too.

Where My Keloid Journey Started Pt.2

In this episode of The Life of a Multifacet, I continue my keloid journey and take it back through the process of getting multiple keloids removed over the years, seeing some of them come back, and trying to figure out what actually works. I talk about my first keloid removals back in 2019, what it felt like seeing them return bigger than before, going through different surgeons in Kentucky, Atlanta, and New York, and how frustrating it can be when you think you finally found the solution and then realize the process still isn’t done. This episode also gets into why I decided to go back to the surgeon who gave me the best work to date, how that decision came full circle, and why this journey has become bigger than just me. It’s also about impact, healing, and using my story to help other people who are dealing with keloids, insecurity, and not having clear answers. Sometimes the process isn’t one-and-done. Sometimes it takes setbacks, patience, and going back to what you know truly works.
