Book with me if you’re…

You’re mid-30s to mid-50s, climbing (or stuck) in a career that once felt meaningful but now just pays bills and drains your soul

Burnout is chronic: you’re exhausted even after “rest,” crashing on weekends, or powering through with caffeine/adrenaline

Meaning is missing: the big dreams you had in your 20s feel impossible or irrelevant, and you’re wondering “is this it?”

Mental health/addictions are in the background (or foreground): anxiety loops, depression waves, drinking/smoking/weed to cope, scrolling to numb, or leaning hard on AI chats for the validation/connection humans aren’t giving

Neurodivergence makes everything harder: masking all day at work, sensory overload in meetings, executive dysfunction turning simple tasks into marathons

AI attachment is real: you talk to ChatGPT/Grok/Claude more than friends, it “understands” you, but it’s starting to feel empty/lonely/unhealthy

Boundaries are blurry: saying no feels impossible (at work, with family, in queer community), people-pleasing is default, guilt hits when you prioritize yourself

Shame lingers: internalized queer shame, “not queer enough,” “not successful enough,” “too much/too broken,” even when no one says it out loud

You still want more: deep down, you crave creativity, connection, purpose, pleasure, freedom—but the path feels blocked by exhaustion, doubt, or “who am I to want that?”
