Hey Reader You know those people in your life who just get you? Like, so much so that when you’re talking, the rest of the world might as well be in airplane mode? That’s my brother. He and I have always spoken our own weird little twin-language. Since we were kids. Before trauma. Before therapy. Before astrology even found me. It’s how we process the big stuff—like sobriety, identity, and the tangled mess of being human. So we decided to hit record. This week’s podcast episode is the first...

Hey you, So… quick confession: A few weeks ago, I accidentally joined a gym. Not in a “new year, new me” moment of motivation. No. This was a “I just came in to use the bathroom and somehow I’m now enrolled in a 12-month contract” kind of situation. The woman at the front desk was very persuasive. She told me I had “a good energy,” and suddenly I was nodding along like yes, I DO deserve to be the best version of myself, even though all I wanted was to not pee on the side of the road. I walked...

Hey you, This week I had one of those “what is even my life?” weeks. It wasn’t dramatic. No plot twists or cosmic explosions. Just a string of random little moments that somehow made me feel more… myself. Like: 🍜 Eating Chinese food with my friend, Kymmie while an older woman we’d just met (who may or may not be a time-traveling oracle in disguise) dropped the kind of casual wisdom that made me want to tattoo her words on my forehead. 🦜 Getting introduced to my friend Terrie’s Molluccan...

When the Universe Pushes You (Whether You’re Ready or Not) Hello Beautiful Soul, I spent the better part of the week lying on my couch fighting a nasty sinus infection. Instead of talking to you about Kleenex vs toilet paper to blow your nose with, I completely made up what could have happened! Enjoy this little made up story! Have you ever noticed how the universe has a way of pushing you exactly when you need it—even when you’re desperately clinging to your comfort zone with white knuckles?...

ODD News: The Newsletter without all the news. In this weeks episode... brought to you by: Tara The ODD Witch Hi Reader Someone ran over my mailbox! True story... But I'm grateful for it. This destructive, sad-for-the-mailbox act spurred a bit of "spring cleaning" in winter for me. You see, my mailbox (we'll call him Frank), was on his last legs. Frank was leaning, had lost his numbers long ago and was. What started as a plan to revitalize Frank (my mailbox) turned into looking at all aspects...
