Bleuprint in the Making — Journal Entry 008 (Saturday Night Whisper)
Journal Entry 008: Listening to Momentum Tonight, I am not worried about moving forward. I am learning to listen to the spaces between the steps. Momentum isn’t always loud. Sometimes it’s the nap.Sometimes it’s the moment you stare at a plant and don’t check your email.Sometimes it’s the sigh you let out without squeezing it…

BLEUPRINT IN THE MAKING — JOURNAL ENTRY 003
Journal Entry 003: I Am Not a Calendar Entry I once said yes to a back-to-back daybecause I thought being full meant being valuable. But now I feel it in my spine —I am not a calendar entry.I am not a placeholder between bullet points.I am not here to be optimized. Today I cried.Not because…
