Welcome to Salt + Systems

I wish I could tell you everything in one sitting, but we’d be here for countless hours diving into side stories and details, the kind that are fun to explore, but maybe not as urgent right now. What matters most is this:

Salt + Systems is a space born from the deepest parts of me.

From burnout.

From sadness.

From a need to find myself again.

And from the realization that I’m not the only one.

So many of us are in transition. Maybe you are too. Maybe you’re sorting through what you want, what you’ve been told you “should” want, and trying to hear your own voice in the middle of all that noise.

If that applies to you, I offer you this space. Not because my “expertise” is in having life figured out.

In fact, my expertise is in all the ways I didn’t listen to myself. In giving over control of my life to others. In living by everyone else’s expectations until I couldn’t anymore.

In this space, I’ll be sharing reflections, questions, and tools (imperfect but intentional) in hopes that they help you live a little more closely to your own values.

This is not about perfect clarity, or one right path. It’s about having a place to pause, reflect, and rebuild trust in yourself.

Disclosure

I want to be clear about what this space is and what it isn’t.

I’m not a therapist, counselor, or mental health specialist. I don’t pretend to be. What I bring here is lived experience as someone who has navigated family systems, religion, work, trauma, and the messy process of starting again.

For a long time I thought of myself as a jack of all trades, master of none. I never finished the quote to realize how powerful the full quote actually is.

Jack of all trades, master of none, but oftentimes better than master of one.
— William Shakespeare

That’s me. A student of life. I believe every experience, every conversation, every person we cross paths with can teach us something valuable if we let it.

So while I can’t offer you therapy, diagnosis, or a roadmap, what I can offer are reflections, tools, and questions in hopes that they help you reconnect with your own voice as you embark on your own journey of self-discovery and alignment.


Welcome. I’m glad you’re here!
