Documenting working with your constraints instead of against them.
This is me figuring it out as I go. No guru bullshit. Just real-time exploration of what it looks like to honor your actual capacity.

Why This Experiment
I’m documenting 30 days of using calligraphy as my vehicle for working WITH myself instead of against myself.
The cool thing about this is I didn’t start calligraphy+lettering because someone told me to nor am I teaching you calligraphy.
Because it’s the first thing in 9 months I haven’t wanted to give up on.
Soo I'm...
- Testing if vulnerability + documentation + business intention can create sustainable income
- Working WITH vestibular limitations instead of waiting for them to disappear
- Creating products from the learning process itself, not just the results
- Building audience of people tired of guru promises who want to see real adaptation
- Proving you can start messy and still create value from day one
What I'm Documenting.
This is what it is like to start something new when you’re already at your capacity limit. Using calligraphy as my learning vehicle, I’m sharing the real-time process of working with vestibular challenges, chronic stress recovery, and shaky hands while trying to form decent letters.
We’re not focusing on transformation or perfect outcomes. It’s about showing up messy, adapting when life gets complicated, and figuring out how to move forward from limitation instead of waiting for ideal conditions.
Maybe you’re dealing with chronic illness, ADHD, depression, financial stress, or just the exhaustion of being human in 2025.
Maybe you’ve been told to “push through” or “find your why” when what you really need is giving yourself permission to work with what you actually have.
Who knows? Perhaps the second or third phase of this is building a creative business with chronic stress—recovering from chronic stress that is.
For now, it’s documenting my mess and motions…
Starting from Your Limitations
Old Patterns Meeting New Ones
Environmental Factors
What time of day works, lighting needs, paper choices, how room setup affects my vestibular symptoms.

Low-key documentation of “what if this could generate income?”
