I am currently living in Virginia, recovering from burnout while working full-time & job hunting. Planning to return to Utah in autumn.
I have been writing blog posts for about a year now off and on, documenting what I learn and experience in Utah [and temporarily in Virginia now]. And what I've learned before and how it relates to now. Marketing, sales, online business, accelerated-learning, language learning, copywriting, sustainable living practices, online writing. I started the blog originally because I was going to start a business focused on coaching learners in accelerated-learning strategies, but now I blog about the learning process without a business in mind.
I created a Notion page that contains all the quotes and lyrics from media I've consumed, as well as podcast episodes I've enjoyed the most. I've been adding to this list for two years. I just started another one.
I have been reading about existentialist philosophy [Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Friedrich Nietzsche etc...] because I find the philosophy resonates with me and it's a good way to rebel against so many hours of Aristotelian philosophy and 'essentialism' that has been taught to me through my catholic school experience. I like that, instead of discovering ourselves and "finding our purpose" that has been given to us, we get to create our own purpose every minute of the day. In turn, that gives humans, like myself, overwhelming freedom [which is probably why the philosophy isn't so popular]. I identify as an existentialist.
