Phases

A genuinely vulnerable and transformational debut poetry collection from an original voice. Waxing and waning through the journey of self-discovery and self-love, seasoned blogger and activist Tayler Simon reveals the shadows and illumination explored in her personal journals since 2020. This collection contextualizes themes such as sensitivity as a burden, wrestling with depression and anxiety, suffering from perfectionism and projection, unlearning self-sacrifice, and questioning who you are. Feelings are always present, showing up in your mind, memories, body, and relationships. Are they your friend, foe, ally, or enabler? Will you choose to be a witness?
