About this book

A letter to the person I used to be.

This site is a book, of a sort. It gathers the things I most wish someone had told me earlier — not as commandments, but as the kind of thing a dear friend would say to you over coffee, on the second cup, when you finally admit what has been on your mind.

Everything here is free. There is no course to buy, no newsletter to sign up for, no upsell at the end. If a piece of it helps you, that is the whole point. If it doesn't, put it down and try another. The essays are meant to be wandered through, not marched.

There are two essays here so far — beginning with Designing Your Life — and more are on the way.

Read slowly. Argue back. Share what resonates. That is how a book like this stays alive.
