do you feel this way too

launching my advice column

hi!

thanks for subscribing to my newsletter :-) i started joyfull encounters because i love to write and think about the human condition. while it brings me joy to publish weekly, the conversation has been mostly one-sided. so in effort to create conversation, throw me your hardest dilemmas about life, love, etc. anonymously here.

examples:

• is it reasonable to expect sparks on a first date? i am actively online dating and haven't had much luck with immediate chemistry. do you feel this way too?

• i just graduated college and am trying to figure out what to do. i feel bored, etc. do you feel this way too?

• i have been working for a few years but still don’t feel like i know what i want to. do for the rest of my life. do you feel this way too?

i will try to answer in a form of a newsletter called do you feel this way too in addition to my sunday substacks. probably have to figure out the details but it will likely be a fun time :- )

you can find me on tiktok and instagram, or leave comments. i am always happy to hear what resonates with people. thanks for your support!

see you in your inbox,

joy
