A few days ago, I announced that I was leaving this WordPress blog to publish my writing on Substack instead.
What I didn’t realize? My newsletter title The Soft Becoming had already been taken by someone else. Womp womp.
So… I’ve rebranded to The Honest Becoming.
(I panicked a little — but in hindsight, it actually feels even more fitting.)
If you’ve already subscribed to my new newsletter:
→ You don’t need to do anything. You’re still subscribed, despite the name change.
If you haven’t subscribed yet and would like to, here’s the new info (with working links!):
Subscribe to The Honest Becoming
I have created a newsletter on Substack called The Honest Becoming, a collection of tender essays on healing, growth, and inner renewal—and the messy in-between. (Basically, like this blog — just refreshed. I even migrated some revamped posts from this blog onto there.)
If you’ve been following my writing until now, I’d love for you to keep journeying with me by subscribing to my newsletter. That way, you won’t miss a single piece — and we can stay connected!
Lastly, thank you.
Whether you’ve been with me since the first iteration of this blog back in 2012 (ya’ll know how hideous that old Blogspot site was!) or joined more recently, I’m so grateful to have you witness the continuous evolution of my writing journey. (And with that, my life journey.)
It means the world to know that my words have resonated with you — that in telling my story, I’ve somehow affirmed yours too. Your presence reminds me that I’m not alone in the questions, ache, and beauty of becoming. It’s because of you that I know my life experiences matter — and I hope to help you realize how deeply yours matter, too.
Thank you for letting me share this next chapter with you. I’m so excited for what’s ahead.
P.S. This blog will stay up as an archive — feel free to return to it anytime.
See you on Substack!
— Celine
