Thank you Flavinha for sharing such a personal essay of a season of your life. What doesn't break you, makes you stronger. I was hoping, towards the end, that I will read that now you were packing your bags and coming back to NYC. We miss you! <3 Excited to what Contraforma is bringing next. Now is time for us to amplify your voice. Much love, Lau/

Maybe that ending belongs in the next recap: 2025–2030! I miss NY’s energy (and all of you) immensely. Thanks for being such a champ 💕

You inspire me, girl! "...you can only win when your mind is stronger than your emotions." That's not a small feat, especially for us Brazilians ;) Keep keeping!

Que nossos caminhos se cruzem em breve novamente!

“Só perde quem desiste”, difícil explicar o quanto esse seu conselho me ajudou (e ajuda) a segurar as pontas. Obrigado demais!

Animado com as boas notícias Flavinha, você merece!

This newsletter landed in my inbox at the right moment - what a beautiful reminder that to be generous in your practice is not to be "on" and social all the time, but also to have moments/months of focus so that the work you share is as thoughtful and nourishing as it can be. Thank you for sharing Flavia!

So glad it resonated, Sara. Quiet seasons are hard to protect, but definitely worth it.
