We're doing another live workshop, and this time I want you to shape it. 👨‍🦰👩 No preset topics from me. Just tell me what you want to dig into. Whatever is on your mind about tinnitus right now, comment below and I'll build the workshop around what you need most. Here's what I love about these live sessions: the real magic often happens in the conversation. When you show up with a real question, and someone else nods because they've felt the exact same thing, that's when things start to shift. You realize you're not figuring this out alone. Timing will be the usual, around 9am Pacific (noon Eastern). If that time doesn't work for you, let me know and we can look at moving it. ⌚ And as always, once we cover the main topic we'll open the floor for general questions and discussion, so you can connect and ask anything else on your mind. 🤔 So tell me: - Will you join us? - What do you want to cover this Saturday?

Instead, ask yourself: ✨ "How fully did I live today?" Tinnitus recovery isn't just about quieter days. It's about laughing with your family. Finishing a work project. Going for a walk. Watching your favorite show. Meeting a friend for coffee. Doing the things you thought tinnitus had taken away. The more your life becomes the focus, the less tinnitus has to be. Your brain learns from where you place your attention not just from the volume of the sound. Today, don't measure your progress by your tinnitus. Measure it by the life you lived despite it. What's one thing you did today that made you feel like you again?

I've been having difficulty waking up during the nigh because of T. Last night I decided/told myself I was going to have a good night's sleep. Surprisingly I did! I slept for 8.75 hours which I haven't done in a longgggg time. I did not wake up until 5am but went quickly back to sleep. I'll take it!

Hey awesome people! Are you ready for my normal level of content again? 😄 I’m now beginning week 2 here in Peru for our gap year overseas, and we’re finally starting to settle down a little. That means my content generation should gradually start increasing again, videos too, and I want to begin with a topic that keeps coming up everywhere: In live workshops. In coaching sessions. In online tinnitus discussions. And in the private messages I receive from people who are trying very hard to make progress. The topic is: tinnitus fluctuation. The good day / bad day cycle. This is one of the most frustrating parts of tinnitus recovery. Because a good day gives you hope. The sound may still be there, but you feel more in control. You focus better. You feel calmer. You sleep a little easier. You start thinking: “Maybe I’m finally turning a corner.” Then the next day, the sound is louder again. Or your nervous system feels more reactive. Or you wake up tired. Or you start checking the sound before your feet even touch the floor. And suddenly, it feels like all your progress disappeared. This is where so many people get pulled back into the tinnitus loop. They start asking: “Why is it louder today?” “What did I do wrong?” “Did I lose my progress?” “Am I back to square one?” “What if this never settles?” But here is the important part: A bad tinnitus day is not a reset. Fluctuation does NOT mean failure. Tinnitus progress is rarely a straight line. It often looks more like this: Good day. Hard day. Better day. Spike day. Calmer day. Frustrating day. Another good day. Before habituation becomes more stable, that back-and-forth can feel emotionally exhausting. But the fluctuation itself is not usually what destroys progress. 👉 What creates the setback is how we RESPOND to the fluctuation. When the sound changes, the brain often wants to react immediately. Monitor it. Compare it to yesterday. Search for the reason. Look for reassurance. Test it in different rooms.

Well, it happened again: non-lasting relief yesterday. Awoke very early am to silent T. Always a shock. It’s like I’m inhabiting someone else’s body at first. As the hours of the day passed, I remained silent. Once again the simple pleasure of sitting in a quiet garage cannot be underestimated. Anyway, bedtime came and still silent. What a wonderful experience - until it wasn’t. The 24-26 hours of no T symptoms now replaced by the usual this morning, albeit slowly and subtly at the outset. So, there was a little “mercy” involved.🙂
