Are You Living or Just Going Through the Motions?

Have you ever looked up from your phone, realized it’s somehow Wednesday, and had no memory of what you even ate for breakfast? Yeah. Same.

That, my friend, is autopilot. And while it’s handy when brushing your teeth or unloading the dishwasher (again), it’s a terrible way to live your whole life.

We live in a world that practically begs us to disconnect from ourselves. We're juggling 937 things, saying yes when we mean no, multitasking like Olympic champions, and then wondering why we feel like life is happening to us instead of with us.

This week’s letter is all about recognizing when we’re stuck in autopilot—and how to lovingly shift back into the driver’s seat (no pressure to floor it, cruise control is fine).
