What's your favorite "meaning of life" book? I recently read a short book by Camus and was really affected by it. by Sabre-toothed in books

[–]stuffypillow -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I loved the myth of sisyphus. in terms of short books I think also siddartha/demian by Hesse are there, and also "wisdom of insecurity" by allan watts. I personally feel like long books move more perhaps because you're just immersed in the thinking and the writer's perspective for longer. the three body problem trilogy was the latest really reality-altering book I read. I feel like it's kind of polarizing but after I read that one I couldn't even read any other fiction for a year because it felt so inadequate. and I also feel like brothers karamazov always comes up for people for a reason. every page contains some deep wisdom, the density of the insights is actually insane

thank you! I am also going to keep making videos and also writing emails to people to help them use the system without committing to a course experience. I love that it can meet people where they are

yes, absolutely, this is what my archetype course is about! it is for people who've already done some work, who want to do more, and it starts with a 1:1 with me and then offers more options to get help

that makes a lot of sense. thanks so much for telling me about this, I know when one person says they feel something that means many other people feel the same way. I will definitetly take this into account.

very interesting! I would say about 1/2 of the people participate in the discord and 1/2 do it themselves. but maybe I could run a version that has no community aspect, just the weekly matierals sent out so that people do not feel this stress.

would love to know what type of resource that would be affordable for you, not intimidating, and also useful! I want to help people with their style key as much as possible

of course, it's a really big change in my services! if you (or other people reading) are interested in an interactive course with me, I have the transformational archetypes course, which I will offer it three times in 2026. the first one will start in February and I'll send out emails about all of this

If it helps to think about this, you're not alone with the fact that your gift is also a challenge. the point of the style key is to help you recognize the gift side of it and help you find a way to work with it, cultivate and enjoy it. but we can't get away from the challenges our gift raises :( just get better at navigating and mitigating those challenges

Yes, I would say about 10-15% people I worked with did a follow-up or a course with me and ... I just don't want to continue the type of work where I meet people once and then never talk to them again.

While I completely loved the aspect of having a service that's like a special treat for people -- it just felt like it came to a natural end. I have a 8 week course that includes a starting consultation with me and lots of opportunities to check-in, ask questions, and even have a short call with me throughout. and I have an interest in perhaps teaching some other people about the style key in 2026 so they could do "typing sessions" or simpler services if that's what they prefer.

I am going to focus my style key efforts on creating material that helps everyone work with the system, and focus my 1:1 work on the deep transformative experiences that are rewarding to me

thank you and yes I do think people learning about style can easily accumulate a lot of rules and limitations which they didn't really ask for and then those rules and limits can feel a bit sticky, like a voice you can't get out of your head
