Wow I have the energy of 14 humans right now
Oh, hi friends!
It’s 1 a.m. as I’m drafting this. Earlier tonight I had my monthly gathering of friends (and sometimes strangers!) that I’ve been doing for four years. This time 25 people came over to meet each other, talk about their important projects, and share life hacks.
There’s a lot that will stay with me from tonight, but the biggest takeaway is this: a feeling of buoyancy. Of my life and my work being lighter and brighter after spending time with people who are fully present and listening and open to sharing their own processes. It’s a kind of wonder drug. I am full of energy; I can take on the world!
And again and again, I’m reminded of the importance of who is around you.
So, who do you know that gives you that same feeling? Can you reach out today to say hi? To plan lunch? Or even to say, “This random newsletter forced me to think about the people who make my life lighter and brighter — and it turns out that’s you.”
Oh, by the way, it turns out that’s you, too. Thank you for reading,

It’s quite chilly in New York so I’m taking this prompt literally; I'm writing with a fleece blanket draped around my hunched shoulders.
Go make your own blanket bubble today!
