Phewwww…Finally!

Breaking the silence we both didn’t ask for.

Phewwww!!!

It really took a lot to get this done.

I actually lay down on my bed asking myself, “what’s the worst that can happen if I just send this?”

Procrastination has really dealt with me.

It’s funny how easy it is to take a break, but coming back feels like climbing a mountain.

The longer you wait, the heavier the weight gets.

So here I am, wide awake at 1am, finally writing to you.

I kept telling myself I’d show up in your inbox since June… and now August is almost ending.

It’s been a back-and-forth battle with myself.

The fear of not knowing what to write, the fear that the content pillars I planned months ago may no longer be relevant, and that question every creator wrestles with: “Will this still matter to someone?”

But tonight, I chose courage over procrastination.

I reminded myself that the start is always the hardest part, and once you break that resistance, the rest flows.

Honestly, I don’t know what my next newsletter will look like yet.

But I know this, I missed writing to you so badly.

And sometimes, reconnecting is more important than having everything figured out.

How have you been?

Has anything exciting happened on your end lately?

If you have topic suggestions, I’d really love to hear them.

It will help me plan what comes next. And if you don’t, no pressure.

Even a simple “hi” will mean a lot.

That little nudge will remind me that you are still here and that this connection is worth showing up for, no matter how messy the journey feels.

One thing I’ve learned is this: procrastination thrives on silence, but creativity thrives on connection.

So thank you for being patient with me.

Thank you for opening this mail.

And thank you for giving me the chance to start again.

I’ve missed you more than you know, and I promise not to disappear for this long again.

PS: This wasn’t planned. I just woke up, grabbed my phone, and started writing. So please forgive any typos.

Talk soon,

Ifeoluwa 🧡
