How much is too much? You think you’ll know it when you see it, and yet people keep smoking after their second heart attack, get stuck in jobs they hate, or stay in abusive relationships for their entire lives. It's incredible what we can endure when there’s no sign to tell us “you’ve gone too far.”

Felice, I had the same experience when I tried to write a newsletter everyday. Only I didn't last 228 days; I lasted about 100. I became emotionally exhausted and anxious. I have not yet picked my newsletters back up, but when I do, I will define "unsustainable" first.
There are sooooo many newsletters out there. But, for whatever reason, I’m always happy when yours lands. I never regret a moment spent on it - and am just thankful for the way your brain works.
It feels like you scratching at something each day, and being so free in bringing us along. I don’t feel preached at, more like a moment of exploration or discovery.
Looking forward to the adventure ahead. Happy New Year! And thanks.

Maybe describing what "unsustainable" means to you is a great opportunity to pick up writing your newsletter again. Where do I sign up?
