My New Book is Coming Soon…
“You don’t need another thing to do. You need a new way to be.”
You did the morning routine, the therapy, the gratitude list, the walk. And you’re still exhausted, still behind, still wondering what’s wrong with you.
The answer is nothing. There is nothing wrong with you, but there is something broken about the way we are expected to sustain ourselves.
You were sold an individual fix for a problem that was never individual, and you’ve been trying to pour from a well the world keeps draining. After twenty-three years as a therapist and several seasons of burnout and depletion, I finally wrote the book that I needed:
what to do now that you’re depleted, how to tend to yourself without adding one more thing to the list, and why the way back is a practice, not a plan.
“Most of us go through life being treated like a mine- constantly being excavated for what we have to give and never truly being replenished. A garden is different. Seeds are planted, soil is tended, and after every big harvest is a period of rest and restoration. Self-care keeps the mine shaft open. Self-compassion is how we begin to treat ourselves like the gardens we are.”
