Mid-Week Check-In
This is Sparttttaaaaaaa 300+ Strong/ Tyre Slashing/ free gift coming your way
We’ve just passed 300 subscribers… and I’m properly chuffed.
When I launched The Unshackled Journal, I hoped it might strike a chord… but I never imagined it would grow into such a connected, supportive, and fast-moving little corner of the internet. So thank you. For reading, sharing, replying, and walking this road with me. It’s now getting to the point where I can’t always reply as quickly as I’d like, but please know this… I see you, I appreciate you, and I will get back to you.
As a small token of appreciation, I’ll be sending a free gift later this week to all paid and engaged subscribers.
Don’t expect a pony. I am writing to you from a bloody detention centre.
Substack gives each of you an engagement rating out of 5 stars (based on opens, reads, likes, comments, etc). If you’re sitting at 3 stars or above (which most of you are), or if you’ve backed this with a paid subscription… keep an eye on your inbox. It’s just a small thank you, but it means a lot to be able to give something back.
This Sunday’s journal is called: “Stop Slashing the Rest of Your Tyres Because You Got One Flat.”
It’s a piece about spiralling… those moments when we feel like we’ve messed up, so we may as well throw the whole week in the bin. You’ll know the feeling if you’ve ever said:
“May as well finish the chocolate…”
“Start fresh Monday…”
“Shots, please.”
Did somebody say self-sabotage?
I know it all too well… and I’m sure a few of you do too.
It’s an important topic, and we’re going to unpack it properly.
Can’t wait to share it with you.
Stay Unshackled, my friends.
