Between the one I am and the one I dream to be

There is a woman you already are.
And there is another you dream of becoming.

Between the two, there is a distance that sometimes
feels overwhelming.
And at other times, as subtle as a shift in mindset
or a word spoken with more intention.

This fall, at Musa Magazine,
we’re choosing to look closely at that space
between our present self and the woman
we aspire to become.
Not to judge ourselves,
but to understand.
To commit.

We know this isn’t about chasing perfection,
but about living with purpose.

About asking ourselves: What can I do today
to move closer to her?

Maybe it’s caring for my body with more kindness.
Learning something new.
Choosing better relationships.
Or finally taking that leap I’ve been dreaming of.

With every article, story, and column in this edition,
you’ll find an invitation to take a step.
Big or small, what matters is that it’s yours.
True. Real.

Because becoming the woman we dream of
isn’t a destination,
it’s a journey.

And on that journey, you are not alone.

Welcome to your fall.
Welcome to yourself.
