  • Let's talk about your 20s

    Knowing what I share here would have saved me MAJOR heartache and internalized shame around feeling behind and alone in what I most care about. If you're in your 20s, this is for you. It’s one to listen to with tea and share with a friend who might need some gentle encouragement to trust their longings.

  • Practicing a Practice is a Practice

    A list of emergent summer thoughts from me to you, including my remembering that anything we give our effort to is not only a practice (of course), but an opportunity to practice the art of ~life as practice~. Practice is all and everything. Enjoy xx.

  • Convention is the chain

    Building off musings in the last episode (Over-preparing as a way of taking care of vulnerability), I share behind-the-scenes into my own process of owning my magic and expressing in alignment. Making creative choices that feel true and building a life where you write the rules is a gentle process of self-permission, trust, and risk that feels good. Enjoy xx

    Listen in to hear about musings on the vulnerability of living out loud, shame resilience, waiting to shine, and opening to the deep okayness of the present moment.

  • Creative Output in the Information Age

    The dopamine hit of scrolling feels good, but being a creator over consumer (and a prolific creator at that) gets to soul-level fulfillment. While there's less of a buzz of satisfaction in the short term—the creative process can be messy and often confronting after all—building a body of work in your lifetime is worth every minute, and it's available to all of us.

  • Crafting Your Own Repository of Wisdom: The Art of Harvesting

    In this episode, I share one of my holy grail practices for writing, contemplation, and creative living: harvesting.

    A harvesting practice guides you to get out of your own way.

    A harvesting practice gives you the time to remember your wisdom, craft the declarations you most want to remember, and synchronize with the rhythm of your own being.

    A harvesting practice is one powerful way to turn raw insight into tangible writing projects (and it’s great to do when you don’t feel like writing).

    Through harvesting, you craft a repository of your own wisdom.

    After nearly a decade with this practice, I decided to make a digital guide that walks you through, step-by-step, how to have a harvesting practice. You can grab yours here: https://www.regardingdew.com/harvesting
