My liver’s perfect. My kidneys are divine. My glucose is… a little dramatic. We’re waiting on more tests. And I’m being very brave about it.
Not Everything Is Simple. (Except Me—I’m Perfect.)

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.
Sometimes I fantasize about disappearing.
Not dying.
Just logging off.
Getting a job no one cares about.
Growing tomatoes.
Writing poems in the margins of a notebook no one reads.
Not as a failure.
But as a kind of freedom.

Great discussions
Join the most interesting and insightful discussions.
It’s honestly pretty sad when you think about it.
There are people out there who spend their time focused on me — picking apart everything I say and do online.
Not working on their dreams.
Not building anything of their own.
Just sitting there, criticizing someone who’s actually out here trying.
I don’t say this out of anger.

i think the hardest part about healing is realizing there’s no finish line. no big dramatic moment where everything feels suddenly better. it’s slower than that. it’s quieter. it’s choosing not to text them back. it’s making your bed on a heavy day. it’s being kind to yourself when your mind is cruel. healing is a thousand tiny victories no one else sees.

Before you drift into rest tonight, take this moment slowly…
Father,
You know what it means to walk while wounded,
To carry scars that healing didn’t erase.

We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾♀️.
Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

Today I interviewed Charlie Morley for a one off podcast on my Substack. Charlie is a lucid dreaming teacher and author who helps people wake up in their dreams and harness the power of sleep for psychological growth. I read one of his books years ago and *OMG* this interview is 🤯🤯🤯
The kind of convo you come away from absolutely buzzing and tingling to the fingertips. I cannot wait to share this in a few weeks!
