Firefly Scout Field Notes

This is where I share field notes from the work of navigating a complex, heart-led life, blending personal experience with practical insight.

You’ll find thoughtful essays, practical frameworks, and experience-based guidance — rooted in real life, nervous-system awareness, and pattern noticing.

Take what’s useful. Leave the rest.
