Building My Website Is Breaking Me
I thought making a website would be simple. Drag, drop, post, done. But I’ve been sitting here for hours—days, really—just trying to make it look like something that feels like me.
I’m using WordPress, which everyone says is easy, but somehow it’s still complicated. Themes don’t look how they do in the previews. Plugins break things. Pages disappear. And I’m constantly Googling things I don’t even know how to phrase.
But I’m doing this on my own. No team. No designer. Just me, trying to build something that reflects my music, my story, and the reason I even started all of this.
It’s exhausting. And honestly, it makes me feel like I’m way in over my head. But deep down, I know this struggle is part of the journey. Part of the TDTN story. One day someone’s gonna land on this site and feel it—feel all of it—and I’ll know it was worth the pain.
Until then, I’m back to tweaking font sizes and wondering why my header disappears on mobile.
If you’re out here trying to build something alone too, I see you. Keep going.
