What does “not mediocre” mean? For those of us who battle mental health issues daily, it’s the fight we enter everyday when we wake up. The fight to get dressed, do our hair, take a shower, take care of our responsibilities. It’s the struggle to engage in acts of self-care even when we kind of don’t want to sometimes. It’s appreciating the work that goes into the ordinary, the mediocre, but also to push us further to see beyond just what we should do to get by. It’s the push toward the extraordinary, to dive into our talents and skills to make the world a slightly better place everyday. It’s an acknowledgement that we are here for a purpose and to live that purpose daily. This collection strategically places this mantra around us, because seeing the words “not mediocre” gives us the boost we sometimes need to push forward and let our gifts out into the world where they belong.
