Whoops

you've escaped

Hi everyone,

So you might have noticed that there was...no You've Escaped yesterday. I'm ok, truly, but also... imagine the upside down smiley face emoji right here.

I found out I was a part of company layoffs yesterday which I have many feelings about but that's also pretty much all I can say right now.

Once again, I'm ok and I will be ok. As always, Samuel Beckett resounds in my head like a mantra:

You must go on. I can't go on. I'll go on.

New You've Escaped next week if not a little sooner. Please be gentle with each other, it's rough out there. If you have the means and would like to support your local therapist-in-training, I'd be extremely grateful and you can do so here.

I want to leave you with some words from the late Michael Brooks that have been tattooed on my brain:

Be kind to people and ruthless to systems.

Love you even if I don't know you.

A.
