About

Hi, I'm Chelsea.

Big Life, Soft Experience. That's the whole idea, and this page is the longer version of it.

My story

I've always wanted a lot. For a long time I assumed that meant it had to feel hard.

Big dreams, big goals, a big, full life. I assumed ambition always cost you your rest, your joy, or a little bit of yourself.

I don't believe that anymore. I still have a full career that asks a lot of me, and I'm building all of this alongside it. What I keep coming back to is this: you can go after the big life and let it feel soft to live. Both, at the same time.

That's what this space is. The podcast, the writing, the videos, the journal I'm making — it's me building my big life out loud, and hopefully making a little more room for yours.

You can want a big life and still let it feel soft to live.

What I'm building right now

Four things, all at once

The podcast

A few random things about me
I'm a Human Design Projector, which explains a lot.
Virgo, Taurus, Capricorn. Probably why I'm so grounded and so ambitious at the same time.
Fall is when I come alive.
I have ten books going at once and one of them is always a romance.
I journal every morning and take long walks, just like my Pride and Prejudice girl Lizzie.
I cry easily, and not only at sad things.
I drink my coffee slowly, even when I'm in a hurry.
Clean sheets fix my whole mood.

Pull up a chair.
