This Month | The Gladiolus

Victory

Let the Gladiolus remind you that every time you choose to return to your creative self, that’s a win. It’s not about perfection. It’s about showing up. And today, you did.

Faith

The Gladiolus grows tall without needing to see the end result. It trusts the process.
Writing can be like that too. You don’t always know where it’s going—but you show up anyway. Having faith in your words (and yourself) doesn’t mean always feeling confident. It just means you're willing to keep going, one line at a time

.

Strength

The Gladiolus reminds us that showing up counts. That holding your ground, even quietly, is its own kind of power. Writing can help you reconnect with your strength—especially the kind that’s been there all along.
