đ The gifts I gave myself in August 2023
Extra margin for healing + tackling a tough KonMari project
Your Five-Year Plan is a newsletter about embracing lifeâs profound uncertainty.
Maybe your own plans went up in flames; maybe youâre considering a big, scary leap. This is your trusty companion while youâre writing the next life chapter.
Welcome to the conversationâand to the adventure that unfolds when your plans go sideways. This is letter #19. â¨
âď¸ How was your week?
I failedâin the most adorable manner possible. If you read part one or two of my foster kitten saga, you probably wonât be surprised that I found it nearly impossible to bring the three siblings back to the local shelter to find their forever homes.
So impossible, in fact, that baby ZorroâZoe for shortâwill now have a forever home right here, much to her big (feline) sister Cammyâs chagrin.
đ Todayâs letter is for paid subscribers.
Your support makes this newsletter possible! This special edition is my way of saying âthank you.â And writing for an intimate group allows me to cover personal topics that Iâm navigating in real time.
