Congrats on 5 years! I'm so happy I found your work and newsletter. And echoing everyone else, slow and steady is key.

Congrats on 5 years! Genuinely enthusiastic about your content, I’m a very happy paid subscriber. Ps - I enjoyed Dream State in the first section and even into the second bit, but by the second half it petered out for me. New releases are not giving at the moment (for me personally). Wild Dark Shore was another that I felt let down by. I do have stag dance and audition for later in the month so I’m excited for those!

Happy Anniversary Sara! I didn't realize we have anniversaries around the same time. Totally agree with you, slow and steady is how I've approached the past two years too.
