I wrote it in 2022—right after I got fired.

New babies. No plan. No idea how I’d keep the lights on.

It sat in my drafts for two years.

Why?

Because I was embarrassed.
Because I didn’t want pity.
Because I thought no one needed to hear it.

This is the honest truth
(i hate that cause by default truth is honest)
But my answer:
I didn’t share it because I was scared.

Eventually, I posted it (Two years later)
No hook. No fancy framework.
Just raw truth.

And that one post?

It built more trust than anything else I’d ever written.

Now, you may be wondering...

What made it work?

It wasn’t the layout.
It wasn’t the structure.
It wasn’t even “strategy.”

It was storytelling done right.

The kind of storytelling that makes someone stop scrolling,
say “same,”
and trust you enough to buy.
