New week. New opportunity to show up with intention. Take a moment and reflect: • What is one thing you want to be fully present for this week? • Where do you need more focus or discipline? • What is one small action you can commit to? No pressure to be perfect — just honest. Share below if you’re willing. Let’s start the week grounded and clear.

I didn’t create this space because I had everything figured out. I created it because I’ve lived seasons of feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, and on autopilot — just trying to survive instead of actually living. At different points in my life, I was juggling responsibilities, rebuilding from setbacks, and carrying more than I knew how to process. I showed up physically, but mentally and emotionally, I wasn’t always there. And I realized something: Being present isn’t automatic. It’s a skill. It’s a practice. It’s a choice you make every day. Something about me: It wasn't until my most recent relationship that I had that "ohhh" moment. Its when I started using the phrase "your here, but your not really here". This community exists for people who are tired of drifting through their days and are ready to live with intention. Here, we work on: • Being honest with ourselves • Following through on what we start • Setting healthy boundaries • Showing up in our relationships • Taking responsibility for our growth No perfection. No pretending. Just real people learning how to be here — on purpose. If you’re here, I’m glad you are. Introduce yourself below: What made you join, and what do you want to be more present for in your life right now?

This space exists so people can grow, reflect, and rebuild without judgment. To keep The Art of Being Present safe and meaningful, we agree to a few simple principles: • Be respectful. Everyone here is on their own journey. • Be honest. Share from real experience, not perfection. • Be supportive. Encourage growth, not comparison. • Be responsible. Take ownership of your actions and choices. • Be present. Engage with intention, not distraction. This is not a place for: ❌ Drama ❌ Shaming ❌ Gossip ❌ Negativity without accountability ❌ Selling or spamming We’re here to do real work — on ourselves and our lives. If you’re willing to show up with sincerity and consistency, you belong here. Thank you for helping make this a grounded, supportive community.
