How to begin (without repeating yourself)
Every new role, a new business, or new relationship is an opportunity for change. But without reflection, folks tend to carry the same habits and patterns from the last chapter into the new one. This journey is for people who truly want to begin anew.
Together, we’ll identify patterns you don’t want to recreate, values you want to orient around instead, and define your own microprinciples to guide your next chapter. The aim is to begin with more intention and secure a stronger chance of building a life or role that fits who you want to become.
Navigating the abyss (learning to live with less)
You lose a job, finish a chapter, or find yourself in a period where a significant source of structure is removed. This is the Abyss. What first feels like freedom can quickly become drift. You may feel the urge to replace Thing You Left with a New Similar Thing. You need to rebuild trust in your own movement instead.
Together, we define a structure for this unstructured period of life. We build rituals, establish reflection practices, and create habits that give your days rhythm and forward motion, without over-scheduling your life or crowding out deeper thought. The Abyss is a gift if you let it become one. Let’s create a season that feels more intentional, more stable, and more directed.
Find your noble pursuit
You want to build something real. You know what it is. But when it comes time to speak it in public, the words come out wrong, or too many, or not quite right. This is a plight common to many makers and creators: when you are too close to your own work it’s hard to see it whole. This journey is for founders/makers who need an outside perspective to help them reach the story that is already there.
Together, we excavate your stories, identify the signal among the noise, and write the language that matches what you are doing and why. You’ll leave with clear, durable articulation of who you are and what you stand for—one that you don’t need to write down to remember. It’s an anchor to keep you grounded and a beacon to the people you want to reach.
Write the big thing
You have a hefty idea inside you: non-fiction, novel, newsletter, or any other long-form piece of writing. You are confident you can write it, but for some reason it’s hard to get started. This journey helps you develop these early ideas into a coherent architecture for a substantial writing or content project. And we don’t even need AI to do it! 🤯
Together, we take nascent or sprawling ideas and add shape, sequence, and direction. It’s writing coaching and sensemaking—not cheerleading. We will murder your first born ideas, pursue the threads worth keeping, and build a body of thinking that can support an ecosystem of related writing. It is a rigorous, collaborative journey with actual homework.
