Let's chat #6 | why I started beading, my mental health journey & processing trauma

Hi there! 🙂

I have decided that it's time to answer everyone's question about why, when and how I started beading. So here it is. I apologize for the choppy speaking and rambling. Saying out loud that I am not quite ok is hard for me because I can ignore it just fine when I don't think about it. My clinical depression was undiagnosed for over a decade and learning that it is not normal to feel this way and I am actually suffering from mental health issues is quite freeing but also... you lose yourself a little. Because you wonder who you would be if you were actually healthy and happy. So anyway...

Thank you for watching!

❗️ If you remake my designs always credit the original creator and artisan to respect their work and effort - it is not ok to steal ideas and designs from others and sell them as your own. It is rude and disrespectful at the very least. Don't be that person ❌
