What’s a piece of advice you wish someone had told you sooner?

This space is for the kind of wisdom that usually gets passed down quietly — in kitchens, late-night talks, or moments you didn’t realize mattered at the time.

Maybe it was something your mom told you once.
Something a sister or friend learned the hard way.

Or something you figured out yourself and wish you’d known years earlier.

It can be about anything:
– relationships
– money
– work
– friendships
– health
– boundaries
– confidence
– grief, growth, or starting over

There’s no pressure to be polished or profound. Practical, honest, imperfect wisdom is welcome here.

If you feel comfortable, share:
• the advice
• where it came from (or how you learned it)
• and what changed once you understood it

And if you don’t have wisdom to share yet — asking a question is just as valuable.
