I love this. This perfectly captures my struggle with the wellness industry. Something that struck me from the one Open class I took that you held was your humility. I appreciated the honesty and transparency in not being perfect which was refreshing since everyone else curates wellness to perfection. That trait echos in your words and really shows if anyone can make the space for it to happen this way it’s you. Excited to learn more! 🙏🏽
The most refreshing words I've read in a while. The world is in a race to "win" AI and optimize personally, professionally, and commercially yet it feels authentic to...no one? Looking forward to following along on the journey as well 🙏
So tired of optimization culture. I look forward to seeing these newsletters & have been an Open member for years just to listen to your meditations & classes. Back to basics sounds good to me. Just being sounds good to me. I’ll definitely be following along.💙
Really looking forward to following your journey as Gentle Noise evolves. It speaks to such an important need in both contemporary culture and editorial space! 🙏
I deeply relate to the murkiness between ending and beginning, and the feeling of "I can't not do this". It's a calling, and your inquiry feels pure and true. I hope that what emerges is deeply fulfilling as it is resonant for so many others who are in search of this missing space.
"Where the ugly and the beautiful are sometimes the same thing." .... my body sighed with relief reading this. I love this gap, I love this intersection. So here for your building.
whether you had said you were building gentle noise or becoming a farmer I’m happy to still feel that glimmer in your spirit MD
Ha, a farmers life is not for me - although it does sound romantic
