You think you wasted 30 years by not picking one thing and mastering it. You didn’t. You were building a neural network of perspective while everyone else was building a single node. They went deep. You went wide. And now, in your 40s or 50s, you’re realizing the specialists around you can execute within their…
You think the anxiety is about AI taking your job. It’s not. The anxiety is your nervous system recognizing that the deal you were sold just broke. For over a century, the instruction manual was clear: work hard in school, get the degree, secure the career, invest for retirement. Everything works out. That manual is…
You think your suffering serves them. It doesn’t. When you feel someone’s pain as your own, when you absorb their anguish into your body, when you lie awake carrying the weight of tragedies you cannot change, you believe this is what caring looks like. You think your empathy is the gift. It’s not. It’s drowning….

Here’s what’s actually happening: Your mind can simulate outcomes so vividly that the simulation feels like action. You run scenarios twenty moves deep. You spot every…
You think you are behind. You think there is a correct schedule for human development and you missed it. Not true. The conventional timeline is a story told by people who need you to compete in their game. Career by 25. House by 30. Peak earning by 40. This is not a law of nature….
You think the dreams you have at night are an illusion, and this – your waking life – is reality. Wrong. They’re both dreams. Same mechanism. Same mind. You’re just dissociated one level deeper in this one. Last week, I had a dream. My mind created a bomb drone heading straight for me. It also…
You think something went wrong with you in your 40s. The questions that had no answers. The confusion that wouldn’t resolve. The identity that suddenly felt like quicksand.
