What’s this all about, anyway?

This is definitely about figuring stuff out. Not stuff like math, because, the stress of that kind of thing is unbearable and inhumane.

I’m sure there are other newsletters for that. But this one? It’s really about what it says it’s about: unwinding yourself after being f*cked with.

And who hasn’t been, at some point or another?

Yes, I’m a survivor of domestic abuse — largely in the form of emotional and mental manipulation. 👈 And yes, I’ve climbed out of it. 👊 And yes, I’ve started a foundation to help support other survivors who are clawing their way out. 🙌

But manipulation goes beyond coupled relationships. It’s in the workplace, it’s in between “friends,” it’s present in the parent-child relationship, it’s (gulp) rampant in politics.

Somewhere, at some point, most people have been mindf*cked. So, we’re going to talk about it here…in a way that offers enlightenment, empowerment, understanding and clarity, and with any luck breeds progress and long-deserved healing.

Because this stuff is hard to unravel. And I can understand why some people just don’t want to.

Me? I’ve been figuring this out for myself, in bits and pieces, for years. I’ve written about it, talked about it, delivered speeches on it, produced little videos on it (with bad hair) from my car while waiting in the pick-up line at school.

But more importantly, I’ve been asked about it. So. Many. Times. By so many people.

This newsletter, Mindf*cked: Unwinding yourself, keeps it all together, all neat and tidy. And subscribers won’t miss a thing, because it’ll fly right into your inbox when it’s supposed to, ready for you to read through it on your own time.

So, subscribe. Who knows what you’ll discover.
