Welcome to The Daily Feed
A quiet corner of the internet. No likes. No scroll traps. Just presence. This is my version of social media—slowed down and stripped back.
Here, I share small moments: handwritten tokens, fragments of poetry, stories from everyday life. Some tender. Some raw. All real. You’ll find microblogs updated regularly, sometimes multiple times in one day. I write to connect, to make meaning, and to notice what often goes unseen.
Thanks for being here.
Six months later…
I feel unbound, not just to an algorithm, but to a way of living that encourages and celebrates the constant hustle.
Thoughtfully thoughtless
Do I "use" this time appropriately, wisely, as I must, as I should? Or do I, under the pretext of writing about it, while it away?

What We’ve Built
A Mother’s Day reflection on healing generational wounds, raising a daughter with presence, and building the kind of love that once felt out of reach.
The Courage to Begin
A reflection on the courage to create imperfectly, the joy of trying something new, and the quiet bravery of sharing what makes us uncomfortable.
Release: a poem
A visit with an osteopath that reopened old wounds, felt scary but safe, and helped me release a lot—of sadness, rage, anguish and blame.
Do You Know Your Type? And Does It Matter?
A thoughtful reflection on Human Design, astrology, and the Enneagram—exploring how we seek meaning through labels, and find connection beyond them.
Finding Joy in the Margins
Here is why I walked away from selling and created The Ripple Room: a space for creative exploration, presence, and shared joy.
The Alchemy of Offering
When I place this token in the hands of a grocery clerk, crossing guard, or barista who wasn't expecting to be seen today, their eyes widen slightly, time suspends, connection crystallizes.
An Ode to Lucknow Wrapped in Deliciousness
A heartfelt collaboration blending art, poetry, and allergy-friendly Indian sweets. Taste Lucknow’s flavors in Sweet Diplomacy’s limited-edition box.
Kindness is a Necessity
I'm so deeply moved by the way Kel has captured not just what I do, but the why beneath it, weaving it so beautifully into her powerful narrative of chronic pain, loneliness, and radical hope.
