Hi everyone!
A week ago I inadvertently hit send when I didn’t mean to. It was an email announcing a brand new addition to my Substack publication: the The Journey Home subscriber chat.
I wasn’t quite sure what I was doing when a timid notice went out to you all on a late Saturday afternoon that wasn’t well-explained, or intended.
Unintended or not, it was gratifying to see that some of you did pick up on the signal and responded with the most beautiful replies to my prompt. They felt like a refreshing wellspring of water on a hot parched day. Thank you!
So today, with a more energy and clearer focus, I would like to officially invite everyone to join in the conversation that began with this prompt:
What does the ‘Journey Home’ mean to you?
Here’s what one person shared, so beautiful and calming, it literally brought me to my knees:
You can see it, read what others have written, and add your own message on the Chat App HERE.
Not sure what the Chat App is, or how to download it? Keep scrolling…
What is Chat?
This is a conversation space in the Substack app set up exclusively for all subscribers — kind of like a group chat or live hangout. It is a private place where I will post short prompts, thoughts, questions, and updates that come my way, and you can jump into the discussion.
If you’re a paid subscriber (thank you!) I will be adding a new feature in that space for you as well. More on that later.
Chat does not replace the emails that you receive from me twice a week. It’s an extra, optional feature intended to deepen the conversation.
Chats are sent via email (which goes to your browser), and via an app. See below for steps on how to download the Substack app, now available for both iOS and Android. If you turn on push notifications, you won’t miss the conversation as it happens.
How to get the App
Download the app by clicking this link or the button below. Substack Chat is now available on both iOS and Android.
Open the app and tap the Chat icon. It looks like two bubbles in the bottom bar, and you’ll see a row for my chat inside.
Turn on notifications if you wish to be notified when something has been posted.
That’s it! Jump into my thread to say hi, and if you have any issues, check out Substack’s FAQ.
In case you missed it…
Last Tuesday I interrupted our regular programming to announce that my first book, YOUR SPACIOUS SELF, was launched for the fourth time. In honor of its slow drip metamorphosis, I thought you might enjoy viewing its humble beginnings in this visual retrospective (…and ode to dreams coming true).
Finally…a fun preview…
For a little preview of the chapter titles of the latest edition, here’s a fun15-second clip:
PS…If you end up getting the book and liking it, please help me spread the word by posting a review on Amazon here. Every little bit helps build the energy for a more spacious world 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Ahhh ✍🏼😌
