Welcome to Raw Reflections
This is where curiosity gets loud, opinions get honest, and no topic has to fit neatly into one box. Raw Reflections is a collection of deep dives, personal essays, cultural commentary, and the thoughts I probably spent way too long analyzing before turning them into a blog post.
Here, I write about true crime and courtroom drama, psychology and human behavior, motherhood and identity, relationships, pop culture, sports, media, and the experiences that shape the way we see the world. Some posts are heavily researched. Others are deeply personal. A lot of them are both.
If you like thoughtful analysis, strong opinions, uncomfortable questions, and writing that refuses to pretend life is simple—you’re in the right place.
You’re Not Serious People: The Tragedy of Succession and The Poetry of Power
Succession isn’t just about rich people—it’s about emotionally stunted heirs trying to inherit power they were never emotionally equipped to hold. It’s a modern Shakespearean tragedy disguised as an HBO drama, where every move is strategic, every relationship transactional, and every child quietly screaming for their father’s love.
The show’s brilliance isn’t in the business battles—it’s in the emotional warfare. These aren’t serious people. They’re broken people. And in the end, that’s what makes Succession so powerful. This blog breaks down its Shakespearean core, its tragic characters, the lessons each one left behind, and why the ending was exactly what it needed to be.
