    Vela was tasked with examining her sister's corpse. Ever the golden child, Carina's passing meant that all hands were on-deck according to Vela's mother. And so, Vela found herself in Alaska to ensure, as a mortician herself, that her sister's body was prepared for transport and burial. Nevermind that that she was out of her comfort zone in more ways than one: being away from the warm sun of Arizona, stepping out of her familiar morgue, and staring into her own sister's glassy, empty eyes. Nevermind that. She was finally doing something her mother would praise her for. A compassionate act the woman could tell her friends about. Vela's life in a funeral home wasn't something her mother could often write her friends about. Not like Carina, the hiker. Carina the, park ranger. Carina the 'Adventurous One'. But as Vela was making final preparations, something nagged at her, causing her to take up an empty position at a mortuary in Anchorage. An out of character act. What enticed her to stay in that godforsaken final frontier? Was it the call of the vast wilderness that had claimed her sister's life? The enigmatic man with pensive eyes that hung around the mortuary? Or the oddities surrounding her sister's death? Follow Vela into the snowy unknown to find out. Releases every other Sunday.

      Parts 1
    My mum cheated. My dad hits women. My brother went to jail. I'm from a shotgun marriage - and I'm trying to break the generational trauma cycle. This isn't a sob story. It's a survival story. And maybe, if you're reading this, it might feel a little like yours too. Born into chaos I never asked for, I learned how to stay quiet, how to hold it all in, and how to look "fine" when nothing was. From the outside, just another girl growing up in Singapore - but behind closed doors were betrayals, heartbreak, and family secrets no child should have to carry. This is a story about breaking. About holding pain so deep it lives in our bones. But more than anything, it's a story about becoming. About choosing to heal - even if no one taught you how. "Save yourself, and love yourself."

    Our world measures worth by titles, likes, and timelines. That's the trap: we think peace will come once we have a little more, do a little better, or move a little faster. I believe jealousy and its twin, envy, have never had a more fertile ground than today. But peace doesn't come from having more or craving what's not yours. It comes from trusting God with the portion He's given you. This book is for anyone tired of the quiet ache of comparison. For the person who smiles for others outwardly but wrestles with resentment inwardly. For you, if you want to be free. Over the next six chapters, we'll look honestly at jealousy, see what God says about it, and practice the habits of contentment that bring freedom. This isn't about denying desire. It's about learning to trust God's plan for your life. You don't have to live enslaved to envy. There's a better way. Let's walk it together.
