About Me
Hi, I’m Anjj.
I’m a six-time breast cancer survivor, writer, traveler, healer, and woman learning to live life out loud—scars, softness, and all.
I started this blog to share the raw, unfiltered parts of my journey: the diagnosis, the depression, the days I didn’t want to get out of bed… and the days I did. You’ll find stories about mental health, healing with humor, spiritual growth, and sometimes, what I’m eating on the road.
This is a space for people who are figuring out life after.
After trauma. After loss. After the breakdown.
If you’re rebuilding, rediscovering, or just trying to make peace with your new normal—you’re not alone here.
So welcome.
Grab some tea, breathe deep, and stay awhile.
