When I first stepped away from social media to begin my self-love and self-relationship journey, it was hard and isolating—but it also gave me something precious: time. Time to invest in myself. Time to notice what I was actually craving.

And what I realized is that I was starving for real connection. Not likes or comments or carefully curated updates. I wanted face-to-face conversations that went deeper than "How are you?" "Good, you?"

Here's what I learned during that time: People are willing and wanting to tell someone their story—if only someone saw them, asked them, and listened.

But we live in a world where everything happens on social media, and we've forgotten how to have and hold conversations. We scroll past each other's lives instead of sitting with them. We react instead of respond. We perform instead of connect.

So I asked myself: How can I create reasons to spark real conversations? How can I make those moments memorable?

The answer was postcards.

I'm writing 10,000 personalized messages on my branded postcards—one for each woman I encounter in my everyday life. At the café. At the gym. At the airport. Wherever our paths cross.
