Omg I love that list!! I will write a question when one comes to me and I’m like, “I know who would have a perfect way of thinking about this problem right now!” I also love this: “a series of chambers within me getting unlocked the more that I write…” What a beautiful metaphor. Also the phrase “perfect spirit.” I think what I like about your Substack is the notes of you ringing so clearly in it. Your vulnerability, your gentleness, your striving, your hopes, your human walk. You will make it beautiful no matter where it goes! 💕🦢🏄🏽♂️🪴Dr. Jeannie is in. *pipe emoji*
Your words are a gift this morning Kara. I cherish your love and support 🫶🏼 yes, any time you want a sounding board with something, holler. I vow to keep those “notes of me” in what I write in response to readers ♥️🫱🏻🫲🏼🫱🏼🫲🏾It’s funny there’s actually a chance of me going back to school during all of this, so we’ll see about that Dr. Jeannie, stay tuned 😂
Congratulations on being vulnerable and seeking that which you are drawn to. I find that the posts that receive the most attention/feedback are the ones I have to take a breath before pressing send. That flutter in my tummy means I am reaching deep and often enables my readers to do the same. I will be excited to follow your journey. And remember, Substack is all about creating, one step forward, two steps back, three steps forward. I wrote recently about the word Pentimento, A visible trace of an earlier painting beneath a layer or layers of paint on a canvas. We paint with our words, and our canvas develops as we learn and grow. Bravo Jeannie! 💜
It’s always a cool moment when an art project transforms. I think it’s almost always because the artist feels a need for something new, different, unknown, or even... something more difficult - and that’s an intuition that can’t be denied (even if you end up reverting or pivoting again). Life is so great that way. It’s all on the table: This, and 5 bajillion other ideas that are bouncing around in your mind. Congrats on this new segment of the Jeannie Lynn show! And very happy new year. It’s been so great to meet you and watch your writing blossom on a weekly basis. Going to start thinking of questions now... 🤔
“It’s all on the table.” This was very validating in a time that feels verve wracking, as my intuition is leading me to the unknown. So glad to know you and have your influence in my orbit Matt 🙏🏼 happy new year! 🥂cheers to the 5 bajillion ideas we’ll have in 2024
Do you have of those "weird thoughts" Sue?- who is to say what is weird anyway? : ) Not sure my reasoning for phrasing it that way other than I enjoy "weird." Maybe 'weird' in the sense that it might be something you don't find often in conversation or the main stream. I just finished the series Maniac on Netflix, and it really got me thinking a lot about consciousness. The show was fun, colorful, and "weird."
I can’t resist the Finding Nemo Dori quote here- “just keep swimming, swimming, just keep swimming 🎶” 🥰 glad you’re in it with me, Claire! Happy New Year 🎆

Zippers?! I am intrigued! And I am along for the ride as you shed the familiar and make way for new growth 🌱
I love the net vs the whole sea vs swimming metaphors so much 🤍
Synchronously, I have had similar thoughts swimming around about my own Substack evolution 😉 thanks for leading the way!
Happy new year ✨
