Welcome Friend!

Thanks for coming by. It’s been strangely lonely over there on social media, where you have a zillion friends, but would only recognize like 12 of them if they passed you on the street. Oh, its social alright, but not in the way that I like it. I like it slower, and more connective. Like we are all sitting together at the kitchen table, co-creating over a big pot of change-the-world stew. That’s why I love Substack. It feels more intimate, and a better place to share and develop ideas. And to shape the kind of reality that we desperately need.

We often hear that the world’s gone mad. That’s true, but I actually think it’s always been mad. We’re just seeing it more clearly now. And I believe that we are finally ready to do something about it. The only question is whether we will do it quickly enough, and bravely enough, and deeply enough to actually effect real change. Not surface level change, but the kind of profound and revelatory change that we know is needed if we are going to both survive and thrive on this magnificent planet. It’s not news to many of us that our species and our planet are at risk, and that if ever there was a time to take radical steps, it’s right now. So, let’s take them together.

I see those steps leading us in two essential directions. The first is backwards, in the direction of our accumulated trauma. I often wish we could just stop everything for a while, and declare a worldwide healing sabbatical. One where we all get the chance to catch up with our unresolved material, clear our emotional debris, and regulate our nervous systems, before stepping back into the world, fresh and ready to effect change. Of course, most of us can’t afford to go on sabbatical, but what we can do is support each other in consciously carving out more space for individual and collective healing. With less unresolved individual and generational trauma weighing us down, we would have the energy that we need to find our most vital callings, gifts, and offerings. And we could find our way through the cultural thicket of distraction and diversion that derails our sovereignty and obscures our possibilities.

The second step is forward, into the moment itself. No matter how messy or confusing or maddening that moment is. Once here, we can cultivate a more expansive relationship with reality, both with respect to calling out and dismantling the structures and systems that oppress us, and actively working together to co-create the humane and just world that honors our inherent magnificence. The world that we inherently know awaits us, if only we can clear the path and fight for our right to the light, together. Boots on the ground, hearts on our sleeves. Arm in arm.

The Enrealment Newsletter is a place where you can feel comfortable exploring and shaping reality. Not just my version of reality, but yours too. Your free subscription will grant you access to my weekly ramblings, and if you want to take it to the next level, then just hit the Subscribe button. It helps me to pay the bills—I had mistakenly imagined they would all go away by age 60 😊—and it opens the door to a whole bevy of delights: inspired writings, interviews, grounded meditations, calls to action and authenticity, audios and videos that reflect my growing edges of inquiry and insight, brazen truth-speak, and warm-hearted musings on the madness of it all. Oh, and my very favorite thing—a soon-to-be launched advice like column, sacred purpose style. I love Q and A, and it is here that we can explore the nooks and crannies of your unique quest for meaning. Not exactly Ann Landers style, but an opportunity to dialogue together to find real-time solutions to the things that challenge you. Sometimes we will engage that process together in the comments section, and sometimes I will post a series of responses to questions I have received.

Whether your subscription is free or paid, you have my assurance that I will remain true to my intention: a bold and painstakingly truthful quest for reality, in all its forms. No punches pulled, no stepping back from the truth-edge because it feels too frightening. We owe it to ourselves to call out the bullshit, and to use our gifts and offerings to co-transform the world we live in.

I still have hope for humanity. I know there’s a few thousand reasons not to.😊 But I have great faith in us. We are pioneers, we are. Pioneers of truth. We are laying down new tracks without a single footprint to follow.

My greatest wish for you is that you arrive at the end of your journey feeling deeply aligned with your own true-path. With the knowledge that you did your best to honor all that you are, over the course of your lifetime. Few stones unturned, few gifts unopened, few offerings unextended. And with the knowledge that you have contributed to a profound consciousness shift on this planet—one that restores our individual and collective sovereignty. So let’s get to work. Igniting a revolution of the real that effects real change. I’m with you.
