I've mixed cafe sounds and lo-fi and am now a smidgen closer to a Nobel Prize.

Currently writing an article on learned helplessness. Its experience by individuals point to failures in academia, parenting, and structures where so much trust is placed on authority figures. Allow failure. Cultivate resilience, not perfectionism. #MentalHealthMatters
