I bought my FIRST EVER FOUNTAIN PEN and it changed my journaling practice - Pilot Vanishing Point

In this video, I share how one small decision—picking up my first fountain pen—completely shifted my journaling system and even my perspective on processing life. From dealing with hand fatigue to finding the perfect paper, I’m diving into why I moved away from my long-time Moleskine habit and toward a "black on black" aesthetic for this next season. Beyond the gear, I also talk about the power of documenting your journey. Whether through journaling, a podcast, or a "secret" YouTube channel like this one, looking back at your past self can provide incredible clarity and courage during hard seasons. M.
