Hi all,
I often have meaningful heartfelt conversations with friends on Twitter.
Sometimes they share advice, other times it's me. I want to bring these meaningful conversations to more people, so you can benefit too. Let me know how you like this new format.

"Practice being in the moment. Take life in one day. If that’s too much, take it by the hour, minute or even second. You are not your work. To strive is great. But, not when you stress about the future and things that haven’t happened yet." - BNS
"You’re a tough and stubborn person. You’re ill because of determination and focus. It’s a double edged sword. I developed panic attacks because I pushed too hard. If you experiencing things like that make changes now! Or it’ll fuck your up for a few years. Trust me." - BNS
