Obsession, you say?

Hadestown.

Specifically Donal Finn in the Live from London recording, singing Wait For Me -- but honestly the pro-shot was SO GOOD, so it's a general obsession.

I may or may not be making a Eurydice costume for Halloween this year

Omg! I was going to write Hadestown as well because ever since I watched the pro-shot, I have not listened to anything else but the original broadway cast recording. What a show. 😍

Please, please, please give yourself and your ears the treat of a lifetime and listen to the Live in London recording with Donal Finn haha

Omgosh, I love that the two of you posted about Hadestown!! My daughter and I have been season tickets holders to our local theater and saw Hadestown a few years ago. The pro shot that was just in the theater makes Broadway so much more accessible to people who can't afford tot get to NY and Broadway. Keep enjoying it!! And 100% dress up as Eurydice for Halloween!!

I don’t really know anything about it, but I’ll be seeing it in a few months when it rolls through town. Really excited.

You are in for such a treat!!!

Love the closing line!!!! Carrying that through the rest of my week.

So excited for tonight!!!!!

Current obsession: Sitting on my balcony. I do it every morning when I wake up and watch the sunrise. (while I read poetry) And I recently started doing it at night before bed too. I'll sit outside for a few minutes and look at stars because it's dark where I live and I can see them pretty well. These rituals really help ground me. They help me to really NOTICE. Also just being in nature seems to be a cure for everything.

Agreed about being outside- I call it porch therapy.

This was just the most lovely thing to watch and listen to. Your final thought was incredible and fits in so many ways right now. Thank you for showing up, for modeling the love and creativity that you both model. I love that you are a part of the community I live in!!

Current obsessions:

* Finishing watching Orphan Black before it leaves the platform at the end of August

* listening to EDM - I've always enjoyed the popular songs but lately I've really been deep diving into the whole subject

* Tyler + Sarah - I've said it before and I'll say it again, you two are just the cutest!!

* Embracing who I am and who I am becoming, at this age, in this moment of life with all it's challenges and celebrations

Looking forward to the live but I have an event already tonight so I'll catch the next one!

My latest obsession is Culture Pop soda in just about any flavor, but the turmeric ginger is my favorite. It's a probiotic soda made with real sugar and natural colors.

Been watching Widow's Bay. We have three more shows, and I really want to see how they resolve the season, but I also don't want it to end!

The weird thing was I buzzed my hair down with a number-two guide on the clippers. I didn't quite mean to do that all over, but I'm loving it. I've done it a couple of times in the past, but never with my silver hair, and not at 66 ;-)

So much yay!!

Yay for live Wednesdays! Yay for the FIRST fire keepers live hangout tonight -- I will likely be doing baby's bedtime when you start but if you haven't wrapped up by the time I'm done, I'll hop on! I hope lots of people join but just know if I'm not there, I DEFINITELY am, in spirit!!

"Fit the life around you around the strength that you have found" That is amazing. You know when you hear something and you feel this bone-deep "YES!"? Yep, that's the feeling.

:) I'm so glad this resonated. Truly.

I’m new to the paid membership but followed Tyler well before your beautiful wedding! Sorry I missed this first one but I am looking forward to these beautiful conversations with you two 💗

Tyler Knott Gregson's avatar

We will do more live gatherings! The first one was stunning and we got to laugh, cry, share, and bond! Cannot wait to do another! Thank you for joining us!

Donna Ghaderi's avatar

What I love about this is it’s a SHINING LIGHT OF JOY AND HUMANITY in a current world of shadows. Thanks!

Rachel Small's avatar

Can't wait to join a live gathering! Love the poem :)

Tyler Knott Gregson's avatar

Rachel! We need you there! First one was beautiful and I'll be posting a replay of it soon! Next one should be even better!

Heather Banks's avatar

I love the idea of a live gathering!! So fun!

Current obsessions : Noah Kahan’s music (and seemingly wonderful personality) and the return of Ted Lasso - just when we really needed that goodness the most.

I am also rewatching This is Us with my daughter who is going into her senior year and experiencing the incredible writing snd acting again through her eyes for the first time has been magical right before we dive into the rollercoaster of graduation year.

I truly wish we were close enough that you both could capture her senior photos. You would love her beautiful spirit and the way the sunshine through her red hair at golden hour looks like fire.

Tyler Knott Gregson's avatar

Heather we just had our first one and it was SO MUCH FUN. A dozen or so people showed up, we supported each other, we laughed, we cried, we bonded. It was beautiful and I cannot wait for the next one! I'll post a replay of it soon! And You're so right on needing more goodness. Thank you for these!

I love the idea of embracing the empty nest and falling more in love in more ways with each other.

I’m currently weirdly obsessed with my junk journal, my baby cat Maisie Blaze, and Dandies vegan marshmallows!

Tyler Knott Gregson's avatar

I think that's what life is, take the punches and try to make them poetry. Junk journal sounds amazing and fun. And what the heck is IN a vegan marshmallow?!

Kit Williams's avatar

It’s more about what’s NOT in a vegan marshmallow… (gelatine)

Circling back to this post because I have to say how much this poem means to me. After hearing you read it, I went and pulled Chasers of the Light off my shelf and have been re-reading it. Still one of the greatest books of all time. And this poem feels significant to me in this exact moment of life I'm in. Especially because I've been sitting on my balcony looking at the stars every night before bed.

Tyler Knott Gregson's avatar

I am so so glad that it does. Truly. Here's to the stars, but more, here's to you lookin up at them.

Ooof- a roller coaster it’s been the past few weeks. It’s a deep breath to sit on the porch before sunrise and catch up on all the Signal Fire emails. “Adjust your sails” and the last minute of this just resonates like you wouldn’t believe. So bummed I missed the second live. When is tomorrow’s?(9/2) Sure hope I can join as there’s some big news in the Haddock house to share! How I so enjoyed the first live event- it’s good to meet more of like minded, creative, peace seeker people.

Current obsessions- sitting on the porch and watching the crazy increase of hummingbirds population - the migration is on.

Recess raspberry lemonade bevs

Somatic healing- contemplating getting my certification to be a somatic experiencing practitioner

Re- evaluation of what keeps me sane. Because of menopause, injuries and my job as a personal trainer- I can’t go as hard in to the paint as I used to and loved to with working out. Kind of pisses me off, but it’s reality.

Thank you for the answered questions, you two. Now I’m off to locate me some B&B products! :)

I think we're goin 3pm again today! :) I cannot wait to hear the news! And reminder: The Fuster Cluck lives are just me and Sarah on cam, as they only allow 2. The BIG gathering where we're ALL live is the 24th! But either way, cannot wait to hear the big news! And here is Sarah's go-to oil, I keep forgetting: https://www.bumbleandbumble.com/product/19055/31247/style/pre-stylers/hairdressers-invisible-oil-heatuv-protective-primer-for-dry-frizzy-hair#/sku/56305
