🕯️ Welcome To The Sanctuary…

I am so glad you made it here. Before we begin, I do want to inform you that this isn’t just a newsletter, it’s exposure therapy. A Safari through human behavior and human experience. A space for reflection, regulation, and remembering who you are. I like to call this place a portal— for nervous system work, clinical interruption, and the unlearning of comfort as safety. It’s for the truth-tellers. The cycle-breakers.
The over thinkers that are learning what it means to feel. The ones who were called “too much” when really— we’re just carrying too much.

What’s included:

One scholarly article/month
One Soft Hours™ essay each week
Access to Quests
Occasional voice notes + bonus drops

🛺 Paid Safari Members: What You Receive:

🕯️ Weekly Soft Hours™ essays – slow-burn reflections, attuned to your body, mind, and story
📚 Monthly scholarly articles – with clinical depth, extended reading, and rooted research
🎧 Voiceover versions – essays read aloud with unscripted riffs and behind-the-scenes commentary
📓 The Weekly Ledger™ – a digest of on-screen captions + a “Highlights from the Streets” column where I process real human behavior from comment sections, DMs, and the algorithmic wild
🧠 Access to the Lecture Hall – where I break down my frameworks (Interrupt the Loop, The Safety to Speak, Shitty Tennis, and more)
💬 Live Q&As – where you can bring your questions, case themes, or personal patterns for reflection
🎟️ Discounts + early access – for courses, intensives, and paid events
🧭 Access to Deeper Quest Missions – interactive self-reflection journeys designed to help you anchor your own inner wisdom
🫂 And most importantly—belonging. A space to be in it, without needing to explain it.

📣 Group Memberships Available

I am so excited to create this rhythm-based home for us all.

Some people may stay for a season.
Some leave and come back.
Some visit once, get what they need, and carry it forward.

You don’t have to stay forever.
You just have to feel it’s for you right now.

I’ll be here waiting for you.

This is not a platform. It’s a portal for nervous system work, clinical interruption, and unlearning comfort as safety. This is exposure therapy for us both. You’ll be challenged. You’ll be met. You’re safe here, but not untouched. Welcome home.
