Orientation Memo: Welcome to the Department

Date: 16 July 2025
From: Director of Self Love
To: New Joiners, Returning Staff, and Curious Visitors
Subject: Orientation Memo

Welcome to the Department of Self Love – a slow, spacious, and lightly structured space I’ve created to explore what it really means to take care of myself.

This isn’t a place for polished answers.
It’s a living archive – of quiet shifts, internal check-ins, nourishing routines, gentle ambition, and reminders that progress doesn’t have to be loud to be real.

Here, I file:

• Internal Memos when I reflect on small but meaningful insights
• Reports when I notice how my body or emotions respond to life
• Field Notes when something ordinary suddenly feels important

Each post is assigned to an “Office” – like Emotional Wellbeing or Body Relations – because while life doesn’t come with departments, it helps to name the parts we’re working on.

If you’re finding your way, too – through burnout, rebuilding, or simply slowing down – then this place is also for you.

There’s no application form.
You’re already in.

Signed,
Director of Self Love
(settling in for the long term)
