reminders to be tender (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I had the wild experience yesterday of sharing something I’d been working on for months with a group of peers and people helpers at a conference about addressing homelessness, and it was really wild. I presented about the tough transition from homelessness to housing, and how we can be better support people throughout that entire process.I have done a fair amount of public speaking, but it’s usually training about administering Narcan, or explaining someone else’s fully formed ideas in my own wo
being alive is a trip (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Lately I am so wildly, deeply, almost debilitatingly aware of the fact that I am alive and I am human. Whenever I come face to face with how messy and hard it is to be a person, I find myself feeling deep reverence for everyone else trying to do it too.

the sacredness of a cabin vacation (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last week, for the first time in 3 years, I took a whole week off of work. When I mentioned to my coworker how infrequently I use vacation time she said, “izzy, that’s fucked up.”And she’s right!!! It IS fucked up!!! But the truth is that slowing down makes me really anxious. If I’m not working, not helping, not caring for someone, what am I even doing? And, even scarier perhaps, who even am I?It’s no secret that I find a lot of meaning in my work, and disentangling myself from that is really re
