Hi, I’m Ali. Welcome to Abnormally Normal, a place for everyone who feels they don’t fit in.
Join me while I dig into the effects of trauma, social norms, culture, gender, patriarchy, friendship, living without children - whether childfree or childless, mental health, pronatalism, and so much more.
I’ve always felt like a square peg forced into a round hole. I’m too much of one thing or not enough of something else. Do you feel this, too?
I pave my own path and go against expectations. I’m not rebellious; my yearnings just don’t match what is considered “normal.” But the more I open up, the more I find kindred spirits.
Perhaps I am normal after all. Maybe, we are all just Abnormally Normal.
