  • Almost Not

    There are things we want to do. Small things.Quiet things. And then, just as quickly,something shifts. Not resistance, exactly.Just a soft turning away. It would be easier not to do it or not to go.To skip it, to stay.To let the moment pass. Nothing would be lost, exactly. But something would be missed. So we…

  • There is a moment when the body reacts. A tightening, low and immediate.Something in the belly that saysthis will not land. You will be seen as off.As distant.As someone who does not quite fit. So we reach for explanation. We add more words.We fill in the gaps.We try to make ourselves legible. Not because it…

  • On Staying

    There are moments that ask to be fixed. Or at least, they feel that way. The mind moves quickly—reaching for what it has seen before,filling in an ending before it has arrived. Urgency follows. Act now. Decide. Do something. But not everything that feels urgentis asking for action. Some things ask to be stayed with.…

  • What is it about distraction? It’s easy to name it as the problem:a lack of focus, a wandering mind, too many inputs. But distraction is rarely the starting point. Disconnection comes first.

  • On Seasons

    When people talk about seasonal affective disorder, they usually mean winter. Short days. Less light. A kind of heaviness that settles in. That’s real. But it isn’t the only pattern. — For some, it’s spring. Not the bloom people expect but the pressure of it. Everything waking up. Everything moving. Everything insisting on becoming something.…

  • On Performance

    People struggle with performance. — Not performance in the obvious sense—presentations, visibility, results. Something quieter. The performance of being: The performance of knowing what they’re doing while they’re still figuring it out. — You can build an entire career inside that performance. You can be rewarded for it. You can even convince yourself it’s real.…
