Want to be a beta tester? (plus a book and podcast making my life better now)

(Here’s what I sent my mailing list yesterday 🥳🫀 Email me if you’d like to be on the list 😊)

So it's been a few years, right? How are you? The biggest news in my life is that I moved to Wellington, New Zealand.(!!!) After struggling with burnout this past year, I also started writing and creating art (more on that in a bit).

I wanted to reach out and share a few things that are making my life better right now in the hopes they might be useful to you too.

  • First, Cal Newport's Podcast provides a twice weekly reminder of practical, clear ways to cultivate deep, intentional life and work.

  • Second, Alix Harrow's books inspire me to rage against a broken world and build a better one. (Even if admittedly I have spent more than one night depressed about how I will never write books as amazing as hers.)

  • Finally, Goodreads is maybe the only social media-esque thing I enjoy. If you want to connect, I'd love to hear about what you're reading! (I don't know how to point you to my profile, maybe search my name?)

Back to creating art...I am creating a series of text and video based interactive art pieces and I'm looking for beta testers. These pieces walk people through simple thought exercises to improve their emotional health. Time commitment is less than 30 minutes.
