Origin Story

The Origin Story:

Boldly Unfiltered was born from a thought that came to me in 2021. I was going through a really hard time and learning some valuable lessons about the company you keep. From that turmoil I wanted to create a space that celebrated unapologetically standing bold in your truth, the very thing said company was trying to keep me from doing.

I bought the domain hoping it would inspire me to get moving so I could have an outlet for my unfiltered thoughts, but the universe had it’s own timing. For a little over two years, I had no more than a notes page in my iPhone that I would refer back and add on to when I had a spark of creativity.

Despite my little notes growing, and the immense amount of purposeful and productive healing I had experienced, I kept putting off creating this blog. I would have a good day when I would hype myself up only to have intrusive thoughts of “who the hell wants to listen or read anything I have to say”. That little doubt kept me paralyzed and with it my musings safe and locked away on my mobile device.

When 2024 rolled in, I was done with my self doubt and far enough removed from the saga of the company you keep to have a level head and clarity about what I wanted to do with Boldly Unfiltered. 

So here we are fresh into a new year with the bones of the site in place and plans to expand my notes into fully realized content; finally making good on the promises I’ve made myself. I’m excited to see how this manifests, and who finds this little slice of the internet on their journey.
