I have missed you and The Flare as I've fallen behind on my reading. I loved the first installment of "Ithaka" and was transfixed by your voice as you told the story. I have just added it to my TBR list for 2023. I will pick a stretch of time on a weekend when I will sit, undisturbed, and take it all in. Then I will write to you to tell you how it left me.
I wish you well this year. It sounds as though 2022 was a tough stretch. May you find all you need in the days ahead.
Letting go is a new birth. Nothing is more important than your health. Don’t allow yourself to break down. Sending you hugs and good vibes from frozen Austria. Today it’s sunny and the sky is blue again after many dark days. 🥰
I am new to Substack and your newsletter and loved your share. The 'winners never quit' thing has pissed me off for years. It might be inspirational sometimes but I think it causes a lot of harm too.
My work is in spirituality/personal growth and I see so much stuff (like the 'winners' thing) that unconsciously encourages us to disconnect from ourselves. But that can't work out well, because deep down we all want to feel whole. I think that is why we keep searching.
Thanks for the beautiful share and the book recommendation. For anyone that has an audible subscription, 'We were witches' is included in the free catalogue right now.
Ooo... agreed on the disconnection. It’s one of the things we sometimes sacrifice in pursuit. It’s a good observation that we searching to feel whole. Feels like the drive to be a winner depends on us being unfulfilled so we keep going. Wow. Once we see the push and pull, we can let go.

That is so kind of you. Thanks so much. I always look forward to your work as well. It’s soothed me during some hard days.

Thanks so much for reading and for your insight.
Oh my holy God. I have already started 'We Were Witches' and it is phenomenal! I fell in love with her within the first 2 paragraphs!
I thanked you for the recomendation before, but I now mean it extra x 1000. I am LOVING it!
So glad!
Beautifully expressed Chevanne. Peace to you on your continued journey.
Thanks so much. 🙂
