Lori, thank you for offering this thoughtful and nurturing space. Your idea of collaborative guided journaling is such a unique way to foster connection and reflection, especially for those of us who may have felt vulnerable sharing our inner worlds publicly.

I’ve come to a place where sharing my vulnerability feels empowering, but there was a time when having an opportunity like this would have been transformative. To be seen and witnessed in such a compassionate way could be exactly what someone navigating the weight of the world on their shoulders needs right now.

To anyone reading this who feels overwhelmed, uncertain, or like your sensitivity makes it harder to engage with the world—this might be the gentle yet powerful invitation you’ve been waiting for. Lori’s approach feels like a way to explore your thoughts safely, with someone who truly listens.

Thank you, Lori, for creating such an inclusive and meaningful experiment. I hope it inspires others to take that step inward and feel supported in their journey.

Lori, thank you for such kind and uplifting words—they truly mean a lot. Growth is a journey, isn’t it? Empowering my voice has been a deeply transformative process, and it’s heartening to know it resonates with others.

Your work and the safe spaces you create make such a difference in fostering that connection for others. The compassion and intention you bring to your collaborations are inspiring, and I’m so grateful for the ways you invite others to explore their own voices and inner worlds.

Together, we’re making room for those who might not yet feel ready to speak but are slowly finding their way there. Thank you for being such a vital part of that journey. 💚

What a kind offer, Lori. I don't feel in need of this as I have this contact in my personal life and with my therapist. But I'm sure it will be of help to others.

I’m aiming for the level of challenging that helps us grow, without overwhelming us. If you have thoughts about how I could make this process feel more supportive, please let me know. This is new and I know I’m not going to anticipate all of the potential obstacles, so I’m really open to feedback. Feel free to DM if you want. I’m glad you’re part of this conversation! 💚
