THX Series Hub: THX Reflections & Personal Essays
Where lived experience meets system design—through healing, bravery, and transformation.
This series gathers the most personal and reflective pieces in the THX body of work. These are essays born of real life: parenting after trauma, reclaiming dignity, finding clarity in pain, and reshaping identity.
Each post draws on the THX frameworks—not as theory, but as survival maps and truth-telling tools. You’ll find emotional depth, clarity, and design principles grounded in everyday life.
