Introducing the Sunday Scaries Support Group

I remember when the Sunday Scaries used to start on Saturday afternoons. Panicked and desperate for a change, I’d search endlessly for a lucrative side hustle that could be a realistic ticket out of the drudgery I’d have to face Monday morning. I’d obsess and obsess about finding that magical miracle and eventually all that energy would wear me down. I wouldn’t give up until well past 10 p.m., searching, thinking… searching, thinking… until inevitably I’d go to bed, wondering if it would ever be possible to escape.

After all, how do you change your entire life in one weekend?

Enough weekends like that and you become a zombie to your future. Staring off into the distance of lackluster decade after decade. You’ll be lucky to have a week or two on a tropical island somewhere. Long enough to forget your plight. Oh, but it always comes back. If not in the pings from your work phone, then the text messages to your personal from a colleague desperate for some relief. You’re chained to that inevitability and every free moment reminds you of it.

Wouldn’t it be nice to speak to someone who’s been in your shoes? Who can tell you with the kind of honesty you’ve come to appreciate in this buttoned up meta universe about the cold, hard realities of following those instincts you call dreams? What it could look like to give into those desires you only whisper to yourself in your sleep, and traverse into a world where your worth is no longer beholden to the 3% increase you’re allotted every year?

Well, my friend, here’s your chance. Starting next Sunday January 14th at 7 pm EST, I’ll be hosting the Sunday Scaries Support Group on Zoom. The price for admission is zero dollars. Simply subscribe to my email list to receive our weekly link and show up to the call with your questions. Pajamas are highly encouraged. Because if there’s one thing I truly love about my free-from-corporate life, it’s the freedom to make my own goddamn rules.
