What's it about?

Not everything needs to be urgent. Some things just need to be honest.

This newsletter is a quiet space to think—about money, mental health, recovery, and the strange business of being human in a hyperconnected world.

Instead of chasing trends or recycling advice, I share what’s actually helped me: useful questions, grounded ideas, and ways to feel a little more clear in a world that demands constant clarity.

Every edition is like a letter from a thoughtful friend—less content, more conversation. The kind of thing you read slowly, and maybe return to later.

If you’re tired of inbox noise and shallow scrolls, you’re not alone. You’re in the right place.

Because sometimes the most valuable thing isn’t more information—it’s a better way to think.

Let me be your Friend!

Each edition is a short essay paired with a few thoughtful links, an honest reflection, or a framework I’m testing in real life. No hype. No panic. No ‘must-reads’. Just good reading, when you need it.

Who's writing

And, more importantly, why this newsletter exists.

After burning out, breaking down, and very slowly rebuilding, I started writing again—not to shout, but to sort things out. I write like I’m talking to a friend who’s quietly wondering what the hell all this is supposed to mean.

Somewhere between a letter, a journal, and a long conversation, this site is for anyone who’s tired of endless tabs, urgent updates, and neatly packaged advice that doesn’t fit real life.

I write about money and mental health. About overwhelm and overload. About recovering from too much—too much ambition, too much distraction, too much pretending everything’s fine.

This isn’t therapy, but it might help.

And no, I don’t post weekly. I post when it’s worth reading.
