Just saying hi, honestly 👋
Hi.
It's 6:33am. I'm sitting on my bed, all nice and cuddled up with some over-priced Calvin Klein blanket I "needed" and some random morning Spotify playlist that is more country than coffee shop... I'll be changing it shortly. Nothing against country music — just not the soundtrack I woke up early for.
I listened to a meditation this morning that centered around your inner innate wisdom. She talked a lot about the importance of choices — little and big. "Does this choice I am making speak to who I long to be? How I wish to feel? How I wish to make others feel? Does this choice I am making speak to how I wish for my life to unfold? How I wish to be seen and received?"
Starting this newsletter was a choice I made to bring me to closer to the person I want to be. It forced me to create, to stay open, and to help people see that the things they struggle with are not weird or scary or isolated. Everyone's going through something, so everyone's going through everything.
I've made a new choice to start a podcast — one that I'll be sharing with you as soon as I upload the first episode. Maybe tonight, if I can get my butt into gear. I'll share more on the podcast later, but I just wanted to stop in and say thanks for making the choice to subscribe. I'm not sure why you did, but I will honor your choice as best as I can by not making you wait so long for an email from me next time. Maybe I'll even bring back the daily Taryn in December... We'll see.
It's been a tough summer for me. My least favorite in years. I'm choosing to get out of it — to make choices, little and big, that bring me back to me. I woke up this morning to spend some time with myself and found myself here, opening up to you. Funny.
Talk soon — this time, I promise.
Your friend,
Taryn
P.S. If you have friends, family, or idk anyone really who might like to be subscribed to this newsletter — help a sister out and it forward it on. You can also send them to my website or this landing page specific to the newsletter. Okay, love you. Bye.
