Hi, I’m Hannah
I’m a university student, writer, and chronic overthinker trying to build a meaningful life while figuring out what that actually means.
I write about the things I can’t stop thinking about: ambition, self-awareness, growing up, confidence, money, productivity, and all the small moments in between.
