The section on walking reminded me of A Philosophy of Walking, a book I was drawn to while browsing the bookstore this weekend. Good reminder that’s it’s not about step count or fitting in a phone call or podcast. A silent walk alone is transformative. Thanks for sharing!

Immersive storytelling best marinated with yourself first, then with others 💯 well except horror (only cause it's fun seeing their reactions, not bc I'm a wuss I swear)

If I ever needed a post! Haha. Getting myself back together after a long period of self doubt and creative blocks has been the absolutely worst. And now I am finally attempting to pick up all the pieces that hopefully I am able to rebuild upon, especially as a creative person and writer. These thoughts seem like a good start.
