Values
In a culture obsessed with conformity, feeling safe in your own skin is rebellion.
​
You've been performing a version of yourself for so long it probably feels normal by now- operating from a place where you've been continuously shamed for being “too much,” “too weird,” “too intense.”
​
That contorting of yourself into a more palatable version? We don't do that here.
​
Words Are Holy Here.
​
Not optimized for productivity or sanitized until they don't sound a thing like you.
​
Holy.
​
Because words hold what your body has been carrying.
​
Shame. Guilt. Passion. Everything you're dying to express but don't.
​
Because you're an adult and it's rude, or you would lose your job or your partner or your friends. Because you don't want to be too much.
​
But I like my too muchness. And I don't want to pretend I feel or live life any other way than I actually do.
​
A lot. Big. Magical. Heavy. Gorgeous. Powerful.
​
That's not a problem to fix. That's a life being fully lived.
​
Here's How That Works
​
This isn't high school English class. There's no grade on your personal development journey. No perfect answer. No framework that spits out a version of you that doesn't sound like you.
​
We use writing to let all of that tumble out — and see what the real you actually wants to say.
​
Journals. Fragments. Rants. Unsent letters.
​
Structured enough to feel held. Flexible enough to breathe.
No forced positivity.
No productivity disguised as healing.
No fixing what was never broken.
Just you — fully expressed, no longer diluted.
​
The Stuff I Stand Strong On.
​
Safety before self-improvement. You don't need to optimize yourself to belong here. We build nervous-system safety first. Before anything else.
​
Words as liberation. Not productivity. Not performance. Writing is how we process shame, untangle inherited narratives, and give language to what's been living in your chest.
​
Weird is identity, not pathology. Hyperverbal. Nonlinear. Intense. Sensitive. Deep. None of that needs fixing. It's texture. It's you.
​
Pace is power. We move at the speed of trust — not urgency, not "30 days to transformation." Your nervous system sets the timeline, not productivity culture.
​
Anti-shame, always. We question the narratives that taught you that you were too much or not enough. Shame was learned. It can be unlearned.
​
Self-trust is the foundation. When you stop outsourcing your identity to other people's comfort, your life expands. Not because you became someone new — because you stopped contorting.
​
Still here? Good. You're exactly who this is for.
*Dylan King (Queen of Grit) stands for Black lives matter. Trans rights are human rights. Free Palestine. Gender expression is not a performance for anyone else's comfort- it's identity. Bodily autonomy is non-negotiable. Immigration is not a crime. Disability rights are human rights- access, accommodation, and dignity are not extras, they are baseline. Diversity is not a threat. Neurodivergence is not a deficit. The systems we live inside were not built for all of us equally- and pretending otherwise helps no one. And fuck Donald Trump.
