In Between Spaces: Part 1
In Between Spaces is a made-up exhibition with a collection of black-and-white film photographs exploring the quiet beauty of Sydney and Singapore. These images capture fleeting moments of urban life, revealing intimacy amidst distance and transforming the mundane into the mysterious. A meditative journey through light and shadow, In Between Spaces invites you to slow down and contemplate the spaces between.
Following up
I was never good at following through my own promises. I begin with energy, with brilliance even, striking out with the promise of something well-founded. But somewhere along the line, the effort dissipates.
Counselling and Technology
So, I find myself asking: why does this space lag behind? Where are the experts who are meant to examine these innovations critically, to expand the research and build a body of knowledge that straddles both counselling and tech?
On the plane from Sydney

Reading the Discourse
How does it feel to watch one's self-esteem erode slowly, I thought. Especially for those who had previously navigated life with unwavering certainty and success?
Outside, Looking in
It’s a strange feeling, but it happens often. I would end up typing a few words, perhaps a thought, or a memory, some form of input, or maybe even a compliment - a few words in but then suddenly I’m left feeling scared, wondering about how they might respond, querstioning the legitimacy of my own inputs, and thinking about how this adds value to the conversation.
California, here we come
Here I was, reminiscing a show about adolescent dread and finding a second family, and finding myself transported into the complex world of cryptocurrency, and the narratives of economic fluctuation. A pair of contrasts that had nothing to do with each other, not a similarity in sight or etched in between, a monochromatic but definitive black and white shade that never wanted to mix. I guess you never know where you'll end up.
Exploring Masculinity in Parenthood
Reimagining masculinity in new parenthood isn't just a cultural debate; it's a pivotal aspect of modern parenting and mental health. As we navigate life's milestones, why aren't we examining how we perceive and enact our roles as parents? Why aren't we reviewing how it influences our families, our self-image, and our emotional wellness?
