Thank you, recently- I started to identify stories z, subconscious stories that built up to some of my actions, letting them go- made me feel a lot of relief. Reading this, at this point in my life where I’m wandering, makes me see a good way to dream also, thank you- I’m inspired!

Are you kidding me, giving up on business that was growing already jes because it wasn't what you really wanted? Whooaa, that's a great step. I was like this "no way, this mama is crazy". Buh this is the kind of step many companies can't take bcus money is coming in n it's what others are doing, n at th end of the day, the company will liquidate n opt for amalgamation. Thanks for this mama. This came at the right time. Everybody have been talking about what they do after Nysc, their plans, and they're asking me n i looked so stupid cos i couldn't say anything, not that I'm hiding buh honestly i don't have anything to do, i jes told them when we got to bridge we will cross it. It's always a depressing moment for me. Buh i jes let it be. I think i have some ideas now. Thanks mama. God bless you.

Dear Adaora,

I feel a new level of respect for you and your purpose each time I read one of your letters.

Thank you for your openness. Thank you for sharing such relatable stories. Thank you for your vulnerability.

I think the Conscious stories is an ideology I am going to adopt and practice telling myself stories of the path of life I choose to live. Thank you.

Love,

Chika

This is the first Switch On! Letter I'll be reading and I'm so glad I subscribed. Now that I think of it, there's this story I've been telling myself. I didn't even know it until I read your words. Thank you Lumina.

This is powerful stuff. I remember when I kept seeing Trellis everywhere and until you mentioned it I didn't realize that it had been a while since I heard the name. It's inspiring to see someone so keyed into their purpose and I hope to grow in a similar fashion this year. Kudos!

Your letters always come at the right time. This one came at a time when I am trying to retrace my steps back to self. For some time now I've been dwelling so much on the subconscious/unconscious stories and it has been draining and unfulfilling. I knew something was out of place and I have started to pay more attention to the stories I tell myself. The entire concept was mixed up in my head but now you have given me names and classifications, clarity on how to use this concept positively. Thank you!
