When writing and creating becomes therapy

100 Reasons Why I am Enough was created as an outlet to recognise and acknowledge my own self-worth. And because, as a true perfectionist, only writing down a few reasons, simply wasn't good enough.

So instead, I started to write down 100 reasons and in the process, I was reminded that I am in fact, good enough as I am!

The darkness and the light

The idea for this project was to have book, completely covered in black, and when you were feeling down or not good enough, you could open the book, to reveal the light, the truth, the reasons.

This is why the cover and the fore-edge is black, whilst the pages instead are kept white.

The final reason

This was a very personal project, which I will always keep with me. It is something I can always go back to, whenever I have doubts about myself, and something I think a lot of people can relate to.

The reasons within the book are a variation of serious, funny, weird, boring, personal, understanding and growing reasons, all-in-all some of the many reasons that makes me, me!

For better and worse. I am what I am, and that is enough!
