Hello folx!
This is the last time you’ll be getting the newsletter twice weekly. Starting on Tuesday, March 4, it will be published on Tuesdays and paying subscribers will receive two true kinship teachings weekly.
Creating a bi-weekly newsletter takes up a lot of time and space. I love doing it AND I miss doing the podcast (Ep #94 is in the works). I have also chosen to be more involved with my local community both politically and with mutual aid.
PLUS
I need more blocks of time to write my book. It’s about grieving animal family members and the expectations colonization has imposed on our grief and grieving rituals when it’s ‘just an animal’.
It includes interviews, stories and at the end of each chapter is ‘The Unwinding’, a place where you will find reflection and journal time, along with ideas on how you can unwind from old teachings and grieve in ways that feel more harmonious for you and your animal family member(s).
Here are some potential tidbits from the book:






Want to help? I’m looking for folx to interview about their own grieving experiences. If that is something you’d like to find out more about, set up a discovery call, let’s talk and then you can take it from there.
Kindred
Beginning March 1, the new true kinship teachings will be available to the Kindred on line membership community. Kindred is a place to learn and practice new ways to connect with animals as kin while simultaneously learning to break away from colonized practices.
If reading this newsletter makes you feel like you need more like minded community, I invite you to become a Kindred member. There you will be able to share your voice, hear other voices and be with folx who ‘get’ your values. How does it get better than that?

You & Me In Reciprocity
When we work together in reciprocity it’s neither charity nor transactional. We - you and me - are co-creating deep bonds of interdependence between species as we are growing closer to understanding each other. As I’ve literally said from Day 1 of my work: “We all do better when ALL creatures do better.” In reciprocity we’re dreaming and actualizing a better world for animals and humans alike. Take that step and join me!
