black and white close-up of Alessia

My name is Alessia. I am an Italian copywriter and community manager.

The quarantine may seem paradoxical, but for me it was a period of rebirth. It was tough at first, sure. But it gave me the opportunity to reflect on myself, on my priorities, on what I really want from life. And it seems to me that we are there.

Hours and hours in front of a PC to try to transform words into actions, actions into small and large projects.

It was possible thanks to the trust of people I love and who believe that we can start again. People who believe that we can live a different future from this nightmare in which we have fallen.

I have been suffering from anxiety for years. Who knows what I'm talking about, he panicked with the lockdown. The fear is that of not having emotions under control, of exploding.

But despite everything, it went well with me. I had just moved to the countryside, just before closing. A fortune. Having a large green space, walking, especially being able to watch the sunset on the days when I felt most vulnerable.

Am I afraid of the future? After celebrating 30 years in quarantine. After having passed the redundancy fund. After 234 panic attacks and a family member with the coronavirus. And after seeing my body change deformed by the wrong diet, no. Nothing scares me of the future. I know I can do it. And I know I can do it well.
