Anxious, unsure and stuck.

It was July 1 2026 and I remember sitting at my computer with my binder and a bunch of loose papers scattered everywhere, feeling completely stuck. A moment where I let my inner thoughts take over my feelings and passion, and allowed them to tell me that “ I wasn’t cut out for this”. Creating not just a magazine, but a brand that people could connect with was an overwhelming thought. How would people connect with me? Would they enjoy the content I was putting out? What if I never amount to the success I set for myself?

Breathe. Inhale. Exhale.

I sat with a pen in my hand, feet tapping the floor, thinking “what could I do that people would enjoy?” That was the wrong mindset.

You see, I spent so much time thinking about what could go viral, or what would bring more attention to the brand, and then that is when I realized; I want people finding my brand because of the authenticity behind it. Genuine connections, genuine viewers, people who are invested in Unopposed. I realized that one of the biggest things I push with this brand and the messaging behind it, is to be yourself. I wouldn’t be myself if I was constantly trying to find the “viral post” to share with you all. I want you to see all the behind the scenes, see the obstacles and challenges I face first hand, see the true authentic version of the people I connect with, and myself.

Unopposed is not about popularity, it is about connection. We are building individuals up one session at a time.

So just remember…. if you are feeling stuck, or overwhelmed, you will always be your best product. Focus on what makes you unique and share that with the world.
