Welcome xx

It’s taken years, but I think I’m finally ready. Welcome to The Unfolded. My name is Karina Jade, and this is my story.

We all experience life differently. We see the world through our own lenses, shaped by our pasts, our struggles, and our perspectives. We compare, we judge, but do we ever truly understand one another? Can we?

For most of my life, I’ve been stuck in the past. I told myself, “My past defines me. It explains everything I’ve done and everything I will do.” It’s easy to get caught in that mindset ,to dwell on regrets, replay moments, and wonder how things could have gone differently. But what if, instead, we choose to look forward? That’s what I’m learning to do now, choosing to look forward instead of back.

So, welcome to The Unfolded. This is my journey, the journey of healing, of becoming, of unfolding.

I’ve finally decided to stop blaming my past, stop holding onto resentment, and stop using old wounds as an excuse to keep myself from the life I’ve always wanted. Why am I sharing this so publicly you may ask. Honestly, I ask myself the same question. But this has been on my heart since I was 18: to share my story in the hope that someone out there might feel seen, understood, or even inspired.

I’m still learning, still figuring things out. So let’s do this together.

If you’ve ever felt this way, I’d love to hear your thoughts. Drop a comment or message me.

much love, Karina jade xx
