Yesssssss! So good (and gave me a much needed laugh as well). When I was started my Substack it was with the intention to spill the beans on my middle-aged sex and dating adventures, then after 5 months I just couldn't do it anymore and my SuSubstack evolved (devolved?) into...whatever it is now. But it's more authentic, and that feels good. Anyway I'll read anything you post. ❤️

This is great! I too have learned that I can offer what I’ve learned, but it’s more about what I need, not to change others. It’s up to my readers to take it or leave it. I love when I make a connection, but I don’t let it depress me when what I offer doesn’t click. I just started a series called, “Thirty Days of Hope,” because I need to cultivate hope in my own life right now. I suspect others do too, but I’m doing this one for me. Thanks for your courage!

Hi Annette- thank you so much for reading and I LOVE your quest to 30 days of Hope! I too am on a similar journey with The Artist’s Way right now. Love to meet a kindred spirit xx

We are allowed to pivot whenever and however we want so kudos to you for changing direction. When I first started blogging I didn't like that my voice and tone sounded very "I dealt with depression and here's how you can to" and I didn't want that. I'm so proud of how my writing has evolved over the years and I'm looking forward to how yours does too as you explore and pivot.

🥹🕊️ AV. Being seen and held in your light is such a rich form of validation for me to keep going and evolving. I highly respect your work and appreciate you taking time to provide feedback on mine. Cheers 💞

Miss K!!! Yay for pivots and changes and doing what YOU want to do!!! 😍 I LOVE this! And I'm so honored to be along for the journey! And from my lil 'ol vantage point, I don't think your beloved posts ever came off as 'I know best, adopt my ways only and be well!'. I love gleaning other people's methods, and trying out bits that might work for myself. But I also know what you mean about people shoving their method down your throat hole, never acknowledging that there's any other way but their method. Yeeeesh. 😬 lol P.S. I luuuurved every strikeout so much. 🙏😂

Your presence, support & validation mean so much through this transition period for me. & I don’t mean it in the needing of external validation to please kind of way, but in the wholesome safety of knowing your heart sees mine. You are everything Lamb! 🐑
