This painting serves as the sister piece to ‘You Can’t Put Me In A Box’, sharing a deeply connected theme of personal transformation. It speaks to the journey of overcoming past limitations and moving beyond survival mode in both emotions and behaviours. The artwork embodies the process of rewiring one’s mindset, cultivating presence with oneself and the surrounding world, and embracing life in the present moment rather than being tethered to outdated patterns. These patterns, which may have once offered protection, no longer serve a positive purpose in adulthood. Instead, this piece encourages the viewer to gift themselves a day—and ultimately a life—of self-compassion and growth.
