You have been here through Substack, showing up, reading, sitting with the questions I keep asking out loud. Sometimes you comment, like, or share. Sometimes I hear from you, sometimes I don't. But you stayed in the room and this is me saying thank you for being here before the world knew what was coming.
So this lands in your inbox before the doors open wide.
Let's talk about whimsy. Not as a luxury, wellness program, or self-care content. As a life strategy.
Whimsy is the practice of being present to the small, quiet moments of your life. The ones that bring you peace, comfort, a moment to exhale the stale and breathe in what actually surrounds you. It's the same faculty as intuition, just off duty. Follow your muse. Smell the roses. Sip the coffee. Not because you need to. Because it brings you joy and you are allowed to have that.
So many women I talk to describe themselves as exhausted. Numb. Flat. They think they lost their joy somewhere along the way, somewhere near burnout, somewhere between taking care of everyone else and forgetting they were allowed to take up space.
You didn't lose it. It was requisitioned by the rules, systems, and rooms that needed you to stay agreeable and grateful for whatever portion you were handed. When we lost the ability to play, we lost the practice ground for trusting our own signal. A woman who can't follow a small whim on a Tuesday will struggle to follow a big knowing when her life depends on it.
Anything requisitioned can be taken back.
Wave 2 is here. The COVE is open. Here's what you'll find.
The COVE is a community of women daring to dream by seeing the systems, naming the wound, and reclaiming collective ground together. This is where you practice sitting still, breathing, noticing, and following your own attention without apologizing for it. We move at the pace of a porch, not a program. We break the old conditioning rules: Don't Talk. Don't Trust. Don't Feel. And we hold intentional space to practice something different with other women who have trust issues too.
What You Get For $97 A Month In The COVE:
Weekly small circle sessions with your pod, six to ten women maximum, with direct access to me.
A monthly 1:1 call with me, just the two of us, every single month you are an active member.
First access to my coaching schedule at a discounted rate for any additional support you need outside the group.
Daily writing prompts in your closed small group and in the wider Cove Connection. No algorithm, no prying eyes. Just trusted friends.
A resource library built specifically for the journey you are on, not generic tools, my actual materials.
A screened community of women doing this work without performance or pretense.
A room where your nervous system is treated as information, not inconvenience.
Full access. No contracts. No additional charge. Ever. As long as you are a member. Cancel at any time.
Here's how The Tide works.
Six to ten women, gathering virtually face to face every week. Most pods run four to six weeks as closed groups so no one new walks into your circle just when you start to open up. We unpack the conditioning one topic at a time and name who benefits from our silence. We say the things out loud that have been stuck for sometimes decades. Your first gathering is orientation to The COVE. The next begins unpacking what playing by their rules has cost us, in our bodies, our minds, and our spirits. It's screened because safety is not a vibe. It's a structure.
PLUS: Your Welcome Call With Me
This call is included with your membership. It happens before everything else. Just the two of us, up to an hour, before anything else begins. Because no woman should have to walk into a new room cold.
Early members get first seating at the table.
If your joy has been on loan to other people for decades, this is where you get it back.
With love, Kim
