I Built Unhinged Almanac. Here's Why (and Who It's For)

I didn’t want to make another course. Or a “healed girl” program. Or a newsletter that’s secretly a funnel to a $3k thing.

I wanted a monthly hit of honesty for women who are actually in it—running the miles, writing the pages, raising the humans, building the business, walking with God, and refusing to be spoken to like they’re fragile or dumb.

So I made Unhinged Almanac:
a monthly micro-zine of field notes, tough love, and story fuel for quietly feral women in the arena. 

THE ORIGIN STORY 

Everywhere I looked I saw two flavors of noise:

•  Pastel pep: soft-focus affirmations with zero teeth.
•  Hustle bark: grind-culture sermons with zero nuance.

Neither spoke to the woman I know—capable, a little exhausted, dark-book obsessed, allergic to beige advice, and hungry for someone to say the thing out loud.

Unhinged Almanac is my answer: small, sharp, re-readable. Not a diary. Not a self-help manual. Intel. 

WHO IT'S FOR

The Quietly Feral, High-Functioning Woman who:

•  is actually doing things (training, writing, leading, parenting, building)
•  rolls her eyes at faux-soft “empowerment”
•  can handle being called out with love
•  loves a morally gray character and a darker flavor of motivation
•  wants sharper thoughts, not a babysitter

If you read this and feel both seen and slightly exposed—in a good way—you’re my people.

WHO IT'S NOT FOR

•  Anyone looking for a step-by-step glow-up formula
•  Folks who want only gentle, never-confronting content
•  Spectators who prefer theory to effort
•  People offended by the words “obsession,” “standards,” or “move”

No shade. Just not this room.

THE INTENTION

Not to fix you.
Not to coddle you.
Not to sell you salvation by Friday.

Intent: give you language for what you feel, a mirror that doesn’t humiliate, and one sharp tool you can actually use—then send you back into your life more honest and more dangerous (in the best way).

WHAT TO EXPECT EACH MONTH

Approximately 10 pages. Zero filler. A clean, reliable structure:

•  Field Notes – a one-page essay that hits a nerve (in a good way).
•  Case File – pattern/behavior breakdowns written like a field report.
•  Sharp Object – one tool or lens you can use immediately.
•  The Dare – an optional, no-glitter challenge that calls your bluff.
•  The World – culture for our kind:
•  Morally Gray Corner (a “Book Boyfriend on Trial” or a vibe-coded book rec)
•  Arena Note (live transmission from my own work—no pedestal)
•  From the Vault (a short, standalone snippet from my dark fiction project) 

• Private Podcast (Companion Audio) 

  •  1 companion episode per issue (10–20 min) that expands the theme, shares behind-the-scenes context, and answers the “okay, how did this look in your real week?” question.
  • Occasional bonus minis (5–8 min) when a topic needs teeth or a case file blows up.

   

WHAT IT COSTS (and Why)

$10/month.
Why? Because it’s worth more than a drive-thru run and far less than one more course you’ll quit. You’re paying for clarity, camaraderie, and a hit of courage that respects your time.

No funnel. No upsell. No faux-soft manipulation dressed up as empowerment. 

A TASTE OF THE ENERGY

•  “You’re not confused. You’re comfortable.”
•  “You’re not ‘unaligned.’ You’re uncomfortably comfortable. Move.”
•  “High-functioning chaos is still chaos.”
•  “Retire ‘maybe’ as a personality trait.”

If those land, you’re home.

WHY I'M THE ONE WRITING IT

Because I’m in the arena too.
Former ER vet turned storytelling strategist/author-in-progress/endurance-in-progress. Mom. Faithful and feral. I don’t write from the stands. I write after the miles, between chapters, and in the mess. No guru energy—just receipts. 

READY?

If your eye twitches at beige advice and you’d rather be confronted than coddled, you belong here.
