welcome.

This site has been years in the making. Some of you may remember the days when I wrote under “Erin Would Rather Walk…or Run” and I chronicled my experiences while training for long distance road races. Even then, I found myself pulled to reflect on the range of sensations produced by my body, the wild variety of thoughts that arose in my mind, and what I saw in the world around me as I covered those miles.

I’ve always been a voraciously curious person and, as my father will tell you, drawn to trying to fully understand anything that captured my attention.

After many years away from long-form writing and a recent departure from all social media, I’m excited to begin publishing content and resources born from this curiousity. Expect to find reflections that look outwards and inwards. Some will console you; some will challenge you; all will ask you questions. Much like the picture associated with this post showcasing a contrast between vibrant colors and inky darkness, the theme I increasingly find everywhere is that living life fullly is about learning to hold the tension of opposites - in our mind, our body, and our spirit.

Please check back regularly as I continue building out this site. My blog schedule will be posted biweekly on Wednesdays and Sundays. (Edited July 2023 to Wednesdays.)

Until next time - be well, beautiful people. I’m so glad you’re here.
