Happy new year everyone! This year, I am aiming to be much more intentional about the social media I consume and to close some tabs + really try feeling into what I WANT to read/watch vs what I feel I "should" because it's there or someone's shared it with me. Might even quit Meta.

What about you?

Might as well promote old stuff! 3-4 years ago, I interviewed a bunch of AMAZING people from around the world doing the work to write a new (or ancient) story for the world. I called it The Story Anew.

See the trailer...

"If loving ourselves, prioritizing, caring for & working on healing ourselves is the answer… then why are we more distressed & sicker than ever before on a global population level?"

Love this person + this Substack!
Is our fixation on healing, self-care & self-improvement making us sicker?

"...If you tell a regular Western therapist that you’re feeling the pain of a tree that was cut down, the sadness of a species that’s been wiped off the planet... they may tell you that you’re projecting and just imagining things."
