Hi Reader!
​
Since my last newsletter, my family welcomed its newest member! We call him Olly. Here's a picture of him and his very proud big brother.

We're all soaking up this time together, and I'm so grateful for all of it.

When it comes to my work and content, Olly's impending arrival helped me figure out what was truly feasible and sustainable. We took the past few months to prepare for the foreseeable future, and we have a steady stream of new releases scheduled for the coming months.

To kick us off, I'm really excited about two videos that were published in the last two weeks, so I hope you check them out!
