Why the 'High Vibe Only' approach is holding us back

Boldly & Gently

I wrote you a reflection that became an essay and then I wanted to read it to you, and then it became an audio episode, and so my new audio newsletter was born!

I wasn't sure what to call it, and then I remembered when I published the first edition of The Self Adventure Guide in 2022 I wrote this dedication in the opening pages, it said:

You are home here.

For curious, open-hearted humans who want to live courageously and creatively.

For the folks who want to know themselves deeply and do their own thing boldly.

For the souls who want to burn shit down one day and go gently the next.

Those words struck a chord with my community and since then I’ve been signing off essays with this line:

Here, we go boldly and gently, together.

Because I believe both things can be true.

And the name, Boldly & Gently, came to be.

It is my rebellion, my revolution, my call to action and my love letter to you. I am so glad you’re here.

This audio series will be spontaneous, eclectic and a little bit wild, it will live here in podcast land and on Substack, so you can read more about each episode here.

Boldly & gently, is a choose your own adventure guide for playing in the messy middle.

With creative, small businesses and full lives. This is for the courageous, ambitious, and thoughtful ones who wanna create meaningful work, take care of themselves and their people. Here we question everything. We build big visions and still make time for naps and trips to the park.

And if you're new to my work, hi, I'm Sarah Haney. I'm an entrepreneur, a creative business consultant, a coach, and an audio producer. I offer coaching, consulting, and publishing services that support small business owners like you probably to create and build with curiosity, courage, and self-kindness. I am your creative director, your action partner, and your biggest cheerleader.

I offer radical permission to do things your way. I'm your self adventure guide for when you want someone to hold your hand and heart and reignite your spark. I'm also a toddler mum, writer, a maker, and a proud ADHD-er living on the beautiful Kaurna country.

I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the Kaurna people as the Traditional Custodians of this land that I am so privileged to live, create, and play on.

This land was never ceded and always was, and always will be Aboriginal land. I honour First Nations peoples as the original storytellers and acknowledge any First Nations people that may be reading or listening today.

I am so glad you're here! If you like it, please tell a friend. And come say hello on Insta @sarahharney_
