TL;DR — I help creative minds reconnect to what matters.

Whether you’re burnt out, blocked, in between things, or just weirding your way through life—I offer tools, support, and a non-cringe space to do the work.

I work with individuals, orgs, and curious minds who want to go deep, not just look good.

Heavy Mental is my creative wellbeing brand — designed for people who feel a lot, think a lot, and want to turn all that inner noise into meaning, momentum, and maybe even art..

It’s my love letter to the creatively lost, the burnt-out high achievers, the big-feeling brains, and the identity shapeshifters.

It’s where psychology meets zine culture meets intentional, self-summoned existential crises.

This brand is less about fixing yourself and more about finding your way back to you.
Come for the burnout kits, stay for the philosophical pep talks and occasional horse content 🐴 ✌️💀 #heavymental

Art making and perfectionism are not a match made in heaven ~ but it’s a dynamic that many of us wrestle with.

also, Rob Reiner’s Stand By Me is a perfect piece of art. No notes. #creativity #perfectionism

Yesterday, I went to the post office to pick up a delivery. A mysterious brown envelope with a wax seal. The hand written letter was an honest, thoughtful and playful recount from someone who stumbled upon my 7 Side Quests guide online.

Through the letter, I got to read about their week-by-week journey through the quests, hearing how they experimented with each one and brought them to life. They shared what was easy, what was hard, and what they learned.

What a joy it was to receive this and discover someone’s deep and intentional engagement with the quests ~ something silly and playful I dreamed up when life was feeling grey last year and I needed a shift. I never imagined people would get stuck into it and make it their own. Already a 2026 highlight. ⚡️

✨✨✨

If you’re up for dipping your toe into the Side Quests you can grab a copy of the challenges via my bio link.

🌹🌹🌹

And, although the letter writer chose to remain anonymous ~ we are united through our shared love of lush period romance dramas, book cafes, and Dove Cameron’s “Boyfriend” 😉

View Instagram Stories in Secret

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
