After releasing my podcast last week, I have experienced waves of total relief and actual terror, as that quote beautifully articulates. It's been so much to process—the joy, the elation, the pride, and all of the attendant fear when something is "out there."
With it, I'm sensing a need to both celebrate and rest, and to let it all integrate.
Seems like a pretty good time for it, too, given that I'm heading into my birthday month (shoutout to all my other Libras).
So, I'm going to dip out for just a couple of sends here in the relatively near future. As I do, here's the slightly altered schedule you can expect—
After that, I should be back to my relatively normal "programming."
Until then, I'll leave you with a referral to the book I quoted from above.
It's called "No Pressure, No Diamonds: Mining for Gifts in Illness and Loss" by Teri A. Dillion.

But have you ever thought about taking concepts from nature and...

If you have and you enjoyed it, would you do me the *generous* favor of opening it in Apple Podcasts on your phone, giving it 5 stars, and even writing a quick review? It would be so helpful to me! Thanks, friends :) Oh, & I did an audio recording of this essay again. Go here if you'd rather listen than read.

Quantum Logic + Exclusive Truth with Lincoln Carr "Science involves humility. It involves the idea that the data is sacred and that our interpretation can evolve at any moment." When I think of Lincoln Carr, I think of the word liminal. Google tells me it means "occupying a position at, or on both sides of, a boundary or threshold." Lincoln is a liminal person: a quantum physicist and a poet in the same breath. But when I think of Lincoln's "liminality," I think more about dreaming—the space...
