Millions of people — and white people in particular — would rather endure physical isolation, generalized loneliness, caregiving exhaustion, and financial precarity than relinquish some of their societal power. That’s a far less optimistic foundational myth than individualism. But it’s a far more honest one.

I’ve come to believe that the greatest sum of human wisdom on surrender resides in the spiritual disciplines that we find across religions and across time, like rest, silence, prayer, fasting, manual labor, pilgrimage, and community. And I believe that all of these can tune us to welcome the spirit of inspiration not just in creative work, but in a... See more

“I have never understood the importance of having children memorize battle dates. It seems like such a waste of mental energy. Instead, we could teach them important subjects such as How the Mind Works, How to Handle Finances, How to Invest Money for Financial Security, How to be a Parent, How to Create Good Relationships, and How to Create and Mai
... See moreI wrote the album in a time when I was feeling incredibly numb. I would have these huge waves of emotion, whether they were anger or joy. And to me, those are two emotions that sort of take over. It's terrifying to let go in that way, but it can be one of the fullest [experiences] of just living, in general. So letting go is really what Surrender i... See more

a favorite in our household 💕 baby girl’s birthday is this weekend and it was time to update her birthday face banner. I got a lot of questions about how we make these and my answer is always as loose as the others.. sky is *always* the limit. but here’s the basics! supplies: -cardstock or thick paper -different paper/material. Basically anything in the scrap bin! -a couple of these papers are my wrapping paper (coming soon!) -tacky glue (not hot glue) -twine, string or ribbon -any extras like glitter, poms, tissue paper, crepe paper etc. -I like to choose pictures from every age (starting at the very beginning!) and print their faces to a good size to fit as a banner. I printed two of her faces to one 8.5x11” page, so they’re all relatively close in size. -Cut out party hats! This is where you can go as subtle or adventurous as you want. I always go the latter, shocker there. Then glue to the head of each face. -space out each cut out evenly to your liking, then secure the faces with string/ribbon/twine on the back. I use two strands to make it extra secure. And leave a lot of extra on the ends so you can add on over time 🎀
