In 2021, a cancer diagnosis made me face an existential question: what do I actually want my life to look like? The answer, it turns out, involves a lot of trees, a lot of uncertainty, and a slow, deliberate walk away from the life I thought I wanted.

Every two weeks, I share that journey in my newsletter. It’s part personal essay, part notes from the woods, and part honest look at what it takes to live and work on your own terms. We talk about slow living, self-employment, nature, and my constant quest to be as cozy as possible.

So if you’re someone who loves a brisk walk, a warm cup of tea, and the occasional spookiness, come join me in the woods. Bring a sweater.
