Everything In Conversation: The Cost Of Community

Everything In Conversation: The Cost Of Community

Hello EIC heads, happy Wednesday, happy September, and happy Everything In Conversation day...


Earlier this month Niamh Duffy wrote a Substack titled, ‘I’ve protected my peace so much, I’ve accidentally made myself boring.’


She writes, ‘I’ve been so busy safeguarding my mental health and pruning my life of stress that I seem to have pruned myself of… fun. I’m not even sure I remember how to have it anymore. Not the kind of fun that comes with bubble baths and to-do lists and reading about attachment styles, but the messy, impulsive, human sort that happens at 2am over chips and existential conversations with someone you met that evening.’


In it she details how in the pursuit of self care, boundaries and rest, she has lost a vital part of herself, her sense of spontaneity, community and perhaps, humanity?


We seem to value right now, above all else, performance, productivity and ‘health’, but at what cost?


Thank you so much for all of your thoughts and takes on this topic, we love being in conversation with you all! O,R,B xxx


I’ve protected my peace so much, I’ve accidentally made myself boring.
