Before Anything Else – Who I Am

 

Hello, I’m glad you’re here!

Not because I check my stats, but because if you’re reading this, you’re probably searching for something. Maybe clarity. Maybe comfort. Maybe the courage to come back to yourself.

That’s exactly what this blog was created for — quiet searches that lead inward.
It’s a space for stillness, for rearranging from the inside, and for that soft yes we whisper when we finally come home to ourselves.

I’m Petya. And even though this is my quiet little corner on the internet, I believe you might recognize yourself in it, too. I’m not that different from you. I’ve doubted myself. I burned out trying to meet expectations. And yes, I’ve even wanted to run away.

There were moments I didn’t know why I was doing what I was doing. I worked. I created. I pushed forward. But it felt like I was holding my breath. Then the results stopped coming. And with them — the illusion that everything was okay started to fade.

In that stillness, in that pause, something real began to take shape. The questions I had long avoided rose to the surface. The aches I tried so hard to silence became louder. Eventually, in the middle of all that, one quiet word whispered to me: “Begin”.

A new life. A new path. A new way to be with myself. That’s how this blog was born. An idea that grew into a path.

There are no formulas for happiness here. No lists of shoulds. Just words. Honest. Imperfect. Sometimes messy, but always real.

Here, you’ll find:
– quiet letters from me, where you might just see yourself
– gentle encouragement for the moments that feel heavy
– small steps that lead to deeper shifts within

I write because I believe the soul is healed through shared presence. And I believe we all have the right to begin again — not when the world is ready, but when we are.

If you’ve read this far, thank you!
I hope this space gives you what it gave me: stillness, breath, and a soft yes to yourself.
