I’m Mykala, a Brooklyn-based brand strategist and freelance writer sharing stories to inspire millennial women to discover and reconnect with themselves through the exploration of topics like mental health, self-development, lifestyle, and culture.

After a series of burnouts left me depressed, anxious, and isolated in my dream city and career I felt lost and disconnected from who I was. I turned to writing as a form of release and slowly began rebuilding my relationship with myself by establishing new meaning to the world around me. From navigating insecurities to exploring new passions I’m setting out to build a life that makes me happy and inspiring other women that it’s never too late to do the same.
