Hi Reader, 🌪️ This Week’s Current Is Anything But GentleLet’s be real: healing isn’t a spa day—it’s a battle for your own damn alignment. It’s messy, brave, sometimes lonely, but always worth it. And it doesn’t come from approval, permission, or following the rules. It comes from choosing YOU—over and over again. This week on Flying Upstream, we’re breaking open what freedom really looks like when you’ve been told to sit down, shut up, or stay small. Through poetry, skiing, van life, and rewriting your own damn story, our guests prove: 🔥 You don’t need to be understood to be free. You just need to be aligned.

Hi Reader, What if your voice was the story? This week, we’re exploring how creativity becomes a lifeline—from melodies that heal to words that wake us up. Our guests took wildly different paths, but both show how storytelling—through music, writing, or just showing up—can change everything.
