Substack: The Specifics

Revelations and recommendations from the lofty to the lowly, to brighten, ponder and absorb.


“This is for the people who burst at the seams. Who feel like freaks because you live intensely, painfully, impossibly. You are not alone. That alive ball that swirls in your chest is your superpower. Big feelings are your thing.

No more squashing them down until they become bad blood in our own bodies. Let’s channel them like electricity (pew, pew). I want to live in a vivid, feeling world. No more apologies when I’m told I’m too much and yet always somehow never enough. No more apologies for my rage, my love or my shame. It’s how I know I’m alive.”

- Good Girl, Naomi Sheldon
