This site is a personal collection of the work I’ve created over the years—writing, digital systems, advocacy, and independent projects shaped by lived experience. Nothing here is curated for performance. It’s simply what I’ve built.About Me
I live for the good stuff!
My work has taken different forms over the years—writing, digital support, advocacy—but the thread has always been the same: clarity, independence, and building a life that feels steady rather than performative.
I don’t separate my life from my work very neatly.
This site reflects that.
The Work
Keep the Narc Away
An advocacy and awareness project centered on narcissistic abuse, emotional clarity, and recovery.
Created to offer language, grounding, and understanding for people navigating confusing or harmful relationship dynamics—especially when clarity feels hard to reach.
The Mommy VA
Behind-the-scenes digital work built on structure, reliability, and long-term support.
This includes years of virtual assistance, systems setup, and operational work—often invisible, always essential. The focus has always been on helping things run more smoothly, quietly, and sustainably.
She Thrives Solo
A long-running body of personal writing shaped by single motherhood, independence, healing, and self-trust.
This project holds reflections on choosing a quieter life, outgrowing old versions of yourself, and learning how to stand fully on your own—without apology.
BOOKS & PUBLICATIONS
These books were written across different seasons of my life.
Some are reflective. Some are practical. All of them came from lived experience.

Letters to the Brave
by M.A. Lim
Get weekly letters on identity, healing, power, and becoming delivered with truth and tenderness.
This is not inspiration. This is activation designed gently, delivered honestly, built for the woman becoming herself again.
The woman you haven’t met yet is calling.
Your new life is not waiting for permission.
It’s waiting for a decision.
I can’t walk the path for you —
but I can hold the lantern.
— M.A. Lim
Vision Notes
Reflections on identity, becoming, and life by design.
You’re Not Lost, You’re Between Selves
There is a moment in every transformation that feels like disorientation. Not because something is wrong, but because something old has stopped working, and something new has not yet taken form. Most people call this being lost. It isn’t. It is being between selves....
