|
Hey Reader, After almost two years of writing a new issue of The Wednesday 1-2-3 every week, I'm taking a short pause this month! With the October Inner Work Cohort starting up and our family now in school-mode for both our kiddos, this seemed like a good time to temporarily remove something from my plate – but that doesn't mean you won't still get something from me. 🙂 Over the next five weeks, I'll be sending out some of my favorite issues from the past two years. (And the good thing is, because of how many new folks are receiving these emails, most of you have never seen these!) And I'll still just be an email away, so keep replying and letting me know how things are landing for you.

Q: I’ve felt so overwhelmed by what’s happening in our country and abroad. I can’t help feeling like I need to do SOMETHING in my own small way. How can I identify what is mine to do in...
Hey Reader, A quick request: as we come to the close of the year, I have a reader survey for you! It’ll only take a couple minutes and will help inform what The Wednesday 1-2-3 looks like going forward. 📝 Please complete this short 2024 Reader Survey (And in case it helps: there's a cute tardigrade gif at the end of the survey 😂) Last week I was talking with a friend about burnout – specifically “activist burnout.” He mentioned how folks who engage in activism often go full-speed ahead until...
Hey Reader, When was the last time you got stuck in a negative thought pattern or memory? For me, this happens most often when I’m out walking. I’ll meander through my neighborhood, intent on connecting with nature, but instead find myself lost in a memory or what feels like a tornado of unpleasant imaginings based on a past experience. These kinds of moments are referred to as intrusive or brooding ruminations. Image Credit: Sandstone Care Luckily, there are some pretty wonderful techniques...
