When I was younger, I spent hours playing with Barbies

When I was younger, I spent hours playing with Barbies

But here’s the thing: it was never about the dolls.

  • It was about creating spaces for my Barbies (House, Cafe, Petshop etc).
  • Designing, planning and organising spaces where everything had a place.
  • Learning how to build any missing pieces

Looking back now, I realize: I wasn’t playing. I was practicing. What looked like play was actually purpose in disguise.


What if your old toys were trying to tell you something?

So many of us grow up and forget:

  • We forget what lit us up when we were children.
  • We forget who we were before the world told us who to be.
  • We forget that we were already becoming — long before we had words for it.

Your toy box, the games you enjoyed playing as a child, the things you did not enjoy? They were leaving you clues.

  • You weren’t just passing time — you were expressing who you really are.
  • Those early passions might be the most honest map to the work you’re meant to do now.

Still searching for your thing? Try this:

  1. Go back
  2. Zoom in — What were you really doing and enjoying?
  3. Find the thread
  4. Connect it forward
