Burnout Made Me Rebuild My Entire Life—And I’m Glad It Did
Burnout Made Me Rebuild My Entire Life—And I’m Glad It Did Let me take you back to a morning that broke me. It was a Tuesday. Nothing special. The alarm went off at 6:30 a.m., like it always did. I had an inbox full of emails, a calendar stacked with Zoom calls, and three deadlines breathing down my neck.

From Rafah to Exile... My Heart Remains in a Tent
Iam Fidaa, a Palestinian woman from Rafah. I was born and raised in that southern corner of Gaza—a city tucked between the borders, the sea, and the sky. My childhood was painted with the scent of jasmine, the laughter echoing through narrow alleyways, and the quiet resilience of our modest home. Rafah was more than a place—it was a feeling. A rhythm. A heartbeat.

The Double Life of the Digital Generation
Today’s youth live in two overlapping worlds. There is the visible life, filled with stories, images, likes, and curated moments. Then there is the hidden one, where doubt, pressure, and silence accumulate. Social media has given young people a space to express themselves, but it has also turned self-expression into performance. Every photo must say something. Every sentence must fit the mood. Identity becomes something to shape, tweak, and constantly display.

Starmer faces growing Labour rebellion over welfare cuts
Starmer is confronted with a growing labor revolt over welfare cuts. Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer is facing increasing pressure from within his own party as a growing number of Labour MPs voice opposition to his stance on welfare cuts. Within a few weeks of Labour's historic victory in the general election, the internal rebellion has revealed deep divisions within the party. Starmer's decision to maintain some welfare restrictions imposed by the previous Conservative government, particularly the two-child benefit cap, is at the heart of the dissent. Despite pre-election hopes that a Labour government would reverse the policy—seen by critics as punitive and harmful to low-income families—Starmer has signalled there will be no immediate change.

The Myth of the “Strong” Woman and Why It’s Exhausting
We hear it all the time. “She’s so strong.” “She never cries.” “She handles everything on her own.” “She’s been through so much and never complains.”

Letting Someone Go Doesn’t Mean You Stopped Loving Them
We grow up believing that love should be enough. That if you truly love someone, you’ll fight for them. You’ll stay. You’ll weather every storm, bridge every distance, and heal every hurt—together.

Why I Stopped Over-Explaining Myself to People
For years, I lived in a constant state of over-explaining. I explained my silence. I explained my boundaries. I explained my decisions, feelings, and healing to people who weren’t trying to understand—only to judge or fix me.
