the pep talk palace

Hi! My name is Abby Frempong and I’m a 17 year old girl from Mississippi (although I currently live in Connecticut), and I am the only daughter of a single mom who is also a Ghanaian immigrant.

A few things about me: I’m a mystery-and-thriller book lover (but I’ll read anything if someone hypes it up enough). I’ve been playing trumpet for seven years and singing for even longer. I’m also an actor (been doing it for the last 10 years), a lover of all things purple, and—if it matters to you—a Capricorn ♑️.

I created this space because honestly, I needed it. I’ve spent the last years of my life juggling my growing responsibilities along with school, my mental health, and just life in general. I’m just a girl, trying to build my own version of confidence that’s real. not performative. not based on what others think. a type of confidence that is quiet and unshakable

I’ve struggled with comparing myself to others since middle school, and it has definitely affected the way I interacted with everyone in my life. I know I’m not the only person who has struggled with this and that is why I created this blog: To help others learn more about themselves to not only better themselves, but also better the lives of the people around them.

what you’ll find here:

✨ real talk about growth + confidence
🧠 navigating identity, culture, mental health
🎭 artsy + creative stuff (maybe a playlist or two)
💬 honesty > perfection. always.

I’m not perfect and just like you, I’m figuring this out too. But if you’re down to learn and connect, then you’re in the right place.

this is for those of us who have ever felt like they’re doing the most and it feels like it’s still not enough

looking forward to talking with y’all
