“I designed this notebook in the summer of 2024, during a key moment in my career. While excited for the new beginnings, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of loss for the chapter I was leaving behind. I imagined Odysseus must have felt the same as he sat by the shore, caught between his longing for home and the unknown adventures ahead. This notebook is for anyone standing on the edge of change, to remind you that these mixed feelings are part of the journey—and they can heal the soul.”
