Hello Reader,

Your capacity to face what's next isn't measured by the calmness of your mind, but by your ability to find your center in the eye of life's hurricane.

You can be spiritually shipwrecked, emotionally tsunami'd, and mentally Category 5'd - and STILL be anchored in "safe enough" and connection.

It's not about being zen 24/7; it's about keeping one foot planted in your inner sanctuary while the world goes bonkers around you.

You're not just weathering the storm, Reader - you're learning to dance in the rain, to sing with the thunder, to find your rhythm in the chaos.

With kindness, Steve Mattus

P.S.: Your capacity isn't a rigid container with fixed limits - it's more like a breath, expanding and contracting with your connection to Ventral - your sense of "safe enough" and connection. The deeper you breathe into that inner sense of safety and connection, the more space you create to hold life's chaos. Feel the expansion with the next deep, slow breath you take, tiny dancer.
