A Brief Pause

I am weary.

I am beyond tired.

Even with repeated use of tired-and-true methods of shielding and re-energizing myself, the heaviness of this world has found it’s way through the cracks, seeping into the marrow of my bones. It has infected my blood and I can no longer ignore the problem, bide my time, hope that it will resolve itself.

History has proven it will not.

I know that many of you are feeling the same way. But, to be brutally honest, I’m tired of simply offering my understanding, empathy and solidarity. Yes, these are all needed. They are the foundations of coming together in community, as a collective.

They are not enough.

Anyone who knows me, knows I’m a survivor. So, I will not let the bastards get me down.

I am making a strategic retreat, taking time to reassess, reformulate, recover and recruit my personal support tribe.

What this means for the newsletter is a brief hiatus in the planned “Stick it to The Man” post series. It may be just one more week, it could be more. The series will resume when I’m confident the information will be presented in the way that best aligns with my values and mission.

It’s important to me to offer you practical and useful content.

In the meantime, I hope you take care, stay well. Feel free to reach out if there is anything in particular you’d like me to address in the series. I would also love to hear how you’re doing. Leave a Comment so that we can support each other through these challenges!
