She's interested in a lot of things and has spent a long time being told it's a character flaw rather than a thing to embrace.
She craves something slower and doesn't want to be taught. She's wants to feel seen.
I'm Gina
🩵 Worked in the corporate world for years
🩵 Got laid off
🩵 Spent months applying to other jobs, heard nothing
🩵 Decided my time was better spent doing something else
🩵 Couldn’t stay interested in that something long enough and kept switching titles like it was nothing
🩵 Wanted to just write, share my thoughts, find people who cared about the same stuff and somehow get paid for it
🩵But hated the algorithmic pressure of social media, the SEO demands of blogging, and the performance culture of platforms like Substack
🩵 So she created a space where she can keep learning, keep exploring, and stay true to every single one of her interests while building something long lasting that she can call her own.
What do you write about?
Whatever I'm curious about that week. It might be creativity, books, business, internet culture, or something I noticed while standing in line for coffee.
If you're looking for a newsletter with a strict content calendar, this isn't it.
If you enjoy thoughtful writing from someone who's curious about a lot of things, you're in the right place.
Why don't you just start a Substack?
Because I'm intentionally building something different. I want the relationship to be between me and the reader, not me and a feed. Substack is a great platform. It's just not where I wanted to create.
Will you teach me how to build a brand as a multi-passionate/hyphenated person?
Nope. There are plenty of people doing that already. I'm simply here inviting the right woman to read, relate, and find her own permission in embracing being interested in multiple things without having to shrink herself down.
Do you sell stuff?
I do. I have a digital guided experience called Issue Zero for those who don't quite fit into a singular box and want to discover how their scattered thoughts is actually a collected moment.
But don't think this space will be a giant sales funnel disguised as a personality. The writing comes first. Always.
