Drained

Dear Friends, I am so moved by your support in response to my last post. It has helped immensely. I am surprised at how much this has had an impact on me. Maybe I am also fatigued, or maybe there are other stressors wearing down my resilience. But I do feel awfully drained. Today, IContinue reading “Drained”

A new AOBH episode

Dear Friends, I am sharing a difficult experience in this new episode of All Our Brave Hearts. It is not a major experience; in fact, it is relatively trivial. But it was upsetting all the same. It was at this weekend’s surf event for the Spellers Freedom Foundation Conference. The negative experience was not dueContinue reading “A new AOBH episode”

Nicer Days

Dear Friends, Well, the dysregulation seems to have passed. I have had a few calm days. What a relief! That there might be more dysregulated days around the corner is none of my concern in the now. Yesterday was a fantastic day. I took a Lyft from my house to La Jolla Cove to meetContinue reading “Nicer Days”

A Nice Day

Dear Friends, Today was a nice day, and that is worth sharing. Dysregulation has been on and off for a couple of weeks, with a lot of shouting and angry outbursts. But at least it has not been as bad as it used to be. And I try to enjoy the brief breaks in betweenContinue reading “A Nice Day”

Coming Back From Dysregulation

Dear Friends, I have had the worst dysregulation in a long time, probably in this year, in the past several days. I finally feel like myself again. This was not nearly as severe as in past years, which I am so grateful for. But it is still disheartening when a rough spell comes by. MyContinue reading “Coming Back From Dysregulation”

Having an impact

Dear Friends, I had a wonderful time in Tucson! It was great to be with so many spellers and allies at the Building Bridges Conference. It was more low key than Motormorphosis, which made it pretty easy to cope with energy-wise. But there was still a lot of good information shared and friends to reuniteContinue reading “Having an impact”

Being Heard

Dear Friends, I am so excited to be the motivational presenter for next weekend’s Building Bridges conference in Tucson! Tara shared the flyer yesterday, and I want to share some thoughts today. I have been so fortunate in my new life to have had several opportunities to present publicly. I absolutely love it! The publicContinue reading “Being Heard”

Heat and Me

Dear Friends, Oh my goodness, it is so hot these days! Whew. I am so in slug mode. I just want to rest and relax. Tara took a much-deserved surf trip last week. I was glad she could get away and have fun for a bit. But I always miss her, so I feel soContinue reading “Heat and Me”

I am an ocean man

Dear Friends, I am so glad to share that I have had some nice ocean time lately. It had been a while since I had last snorkeled, due to conditions not being great during my windows of ocean time. Finally, we got in with our masks and snorkels twice this week! The water feels greatContinue reading “I am an ocean man”

A lot to catch up on

Dear Friends, It has been a very full couple of weeks! I won’t attempt to do it all justice here. But I am all aglow from it. The main thing is of course Motormorphosis. Wow! It gets better each year. The time with old friends and new was so heartwarming. And I love the energyContinue reading “A lot to catch up on”
