Life Lessons: Stories and Reflections
thanks for reading
🌿 Welcome to Last Leaf
Hi, I’m Xenia— artist, writer, and someone who’s been learning (and unlearning) through life’s beautiful and some not so beautiful twists and detours.
Last Leaf is a space for anyone who’s lived enough to know that change isn’t just possible — it’s inevitable. Here, I share reflections, everyday stories, creative sparks, and quiet truths from this season of life: post-career shifts, grief, rediscovery, and healing. Sometimes funny, sometimes raw, always real.
This blog is for you if:
- You’re in your 30s, 40s, 50s, or beyond and asking, “What now?”
- You appreciate honest writing that feels like a conversation over coffee.
- You believe in starting over — even if it’s just with a paintbrush, a garden bed, or a deep breath.
You’re not too late. You’re not too broken. You’re just in a new chapter — and I’m so glad you’re here.
🕊️ Let’s grow something honest together.
ALL photographs and art are orignial and mine. I will not use AI generated images or art. Thank you for your support.
