I Refused Chemo for Months. Psychedelics Changed My Mind.
The first thing my brain did after processing the words "it's cancer" was open about a hundred browser tabs at once.

Where common sense meets holy rebellion. Slow, whole-body wellness for independent thinkers, somewhere between research, intuition, and prayer.

Who I Am
Thriving through Stage 3C on my own terms
I am a fiery Aries currently building a whole new body while going through chemotherapy. That sentence is both the most terrifying and the most clarifying thing I have ever written.
Cancer did not slow my thinking down. If anything, it sharpened it. Green Fire Letters is where I think out loud about slow, whole-body wellness, the kind that lives between research and intuition, prayer and provocation.
I write about thriving (not fighting), plant medicine, why the language we use about illness shapes the body, radical self-advocacy, and wellness takes only I would say out loud. This writing is becoming a book. You are reading it first.

What I Write About
Five threads running through everything
01
Thriving, Not Fighting
My healing journey with Stage 3C breast cancer on my own terms, in my own language.
02
Plant Medicine
Where Western medicine meets the sacred. Psychedelics, kambo, and the healing the mainstream is only beginning to understand.
03
Contrarian Wellness
The takes only I would say out loud. Questioning everything the wellness industry takes for granted.
04
Mind-Body Science
Why the language we use about illness shapes the body. The research behind what we feel but cannot always name.
05
Radical Self-Advocacy
Trusting your body, speaking up, and demanding more from the systems that are supposed to serve you.
