HearthFire
There is a warmth that steadies beneath the rush.
Not loud, not fleeting. A steady ember, alive beneath the ash.
This fall, HearthFire is shifting from spark to coal.
The first flames of summer were bright and new — but what endures is the
slower burn, the steady glow that carries us through the night.
To “gather the coals” is to deepen.
To take what was lit and tend it carefully.
To sit closer, listen longer,
and let belonging grow roots.
Around the fire, there is no need to perform.
No need to fix or impress.
Here, silence and story carry equal weight.
Here, each woman’s truth is welcome,
and each ember adds to the warmth of the whole.
This is the season of endurance, of memory, of quiet strength.
If you feel the ember glow within you,
the fire is waiting.
Here, the ember steadies.
The body remembers.
What was sparked in summer
now settles into a deeper glow.
An Invitation to Gather the Coals
We will meet outdoors, around real fire, beneath the Idaho sky — in small, intentional circles rooted in presence.
Each evening begins in silence, unfolds in stories and reflections, and closes in the glow of the hearth.
A minimum contribution of $30 supports these gatherings and includes access to the private HearthFire Substack tier — a space to deepen rhythm and reflection between circles.
After your RSVP is confirmed, I’ll send Venmo details. You may contribute ahead of time or bring it with you — whichever feels easiest.
The fire is never gated by money.

Thank you for stepping closer to the fire.
A few short questions will help me prepare the hearth with care.
