Earlier in the week, Willow had shared another mysterious post: a close-up video of her face accompanied by a profound quote. "I think solitude can be scary sometimes. There is so much space to remember and reflect on things that may be really painful for us," she mused. 

The quote continued to detail her perspective on solitude as a tool for introspection and personal growth, ending with: "Solitude then can become one of our biggest teachers and tools if we truly want to know ourselves completely."
