I spent a long while chasing perfection before learning that the pursuit of it was doing so much harm. Announcing my ADHD coaching practice, body doubling, tarot meditations, and extending my massage promo.

Trusting the process

Tarot cards arranged on a colourful cloth: the Major Arcana of the Rider-Waite-Smith deck arranged in order clockwise in a circle, with the Fool at the circle's centre

It can be hard to trust even familiar processes, but some extra mental space can make all the difference. I’m reading a new book on meditation and it’s reenergizing my practice. Announcements on unavailable dates in January and February.

Happy Holidays!

December 19, 2025 by Lukas Rowland

Four cards from the Fat Folks Tarot on a cloth: the Queen of Swords, a Black woman upon a throne leveling her pink sword toward the viewer; the Six of Pentacles, a Black woman drops a coin into waiting hands; the Two of Wands, a Black woman sits on the bottom step with one wand behind while she holds another and looks into the distance; and the Ten of Cups, a hairy-legged woman kicks up one leg joyfully while reposing in a giant goblet

This holiday season, remember to take time for yourself. Tarot readings available, and virtual gift certificates! Current rates and permanent discounts will be maintained into 2026.

An extremely abriged version of my ADHD journey and how massage helps me with one of my challenges: connecting to and feeling present in my body.

Overloaded

I recently had my sense of hearing (and balance!) thrown way out of whack. Naturally, I reflected on it as it happened. Important announcement on 2026 service rates in the post.
