Welcome to Raw Reflections
This is where the commentary gets sharp, the writing gets bold, and nothing is off-limits. Raw Reflections is more than a blog—it’s an ongoing conversation about law, identity, culture, power, and the personal truths we’re told to keep quiet.
Here, I unpack courtroom drama, critique pop culture, analyze the systems meant to protect us (but often don’t), and write through the chaos of being alive in a world that demands silence from the loudest hearts. From legal education to emotional storytelling, every post is crafted with clarity, depth, and purpose.
If you’re here for truth, for context, for the unfiltered version of what really matters—then you’re in the right place.
“You’re So Mature for Your Age”: How Infantilization & Idealization Warp Up

It sounds like a compliment, but it often masks a deeper wound. When adults praise children for being mature, they’re often praising trauma responses—silence, emotional suppression, self-sacrifice. In this post, I break down how infantilization and idealization can warp our sense of self, and what it means to reclaim your identity on your own terms.
