💛 HOW WRITING CAN TOUCH THE HEARTS OF OTHERS
In August 2014, I wrote and published the first article in my bedroom.
I could feel my heart in my throat when I shared it on Facebook. I mean... what would people think?!
But to my surprise, my friends gave lots of positive comments. My past colleagues Cole and Katrina even offered to help me proof-read. (The proof that what you think people will think is only in your own head.)
As I continued to grow the blog one article at a time, I had to figure everything out on my own.
And there were many things to figure out!
Meanwhile, my parents were getting impatient.
One day at a family dinner, my dad asked: "So are you getting a real job soon?"
I began to think that maybe I should be looking for a "real job". Maybe none of this mattered. Who do I think I am to inspire others, anyway?
Meanwhile, the consistent blogging was getting me some traction. I was invited to speak at a small local event for young people.
On the night of the event, after I finished my talk and was walking back to my seat, a young girl came to me.
"I read your blog, Milena. You helped me through my depression." She was in tears. And in her eyes, I saw a spark.
I will never forget that spark.
It was the moment when I knew that my voice matters, my stories matter.
It is the moment that keeps me writing until now, 7 years later. With 1 book published, a blog that has organically touched half a million readers worldwide, and a thriving coaching business.
