Seasonal snail mail that helps you put down the never done list and go off duty.

The Off Duty life Club

You’ve become so good at being useful that fun now feels like a waste of time.

Take Me Off Duty — $10

Founding member price with code ODC26 · First season closes Sept 9.

You remember the appointments, figure out dinner, make the plans, solve the problems, and know where everyone's shit is. You're damn good at it.

You're not bad at relaxing. You've just been waiting for a list that never ends to be finished.

But that bitch regenerates.

The list always comes back. Cross something off, and it grows another arm. That bitch regenerates faster than you can keep up. So stop waiting for it to tell you you’re done.
It won’t.

“I was mad when you told me to focus on sleep. I really thought you were going to give me more to do. But setting a bedtime was one of the best things you could have given me. Now that I’m sleeping more, I have more patience with the kids at school and with my own kids. It wasn’t what I thought I wanted, but it was exactly what I needed..”

Betty J.

You don't need to get better at relaxing. You need to
stop waiting until everything is done.

For the love of God, you and I both know you don’t need another scented candle or someone telling you to take a bubble bath.

That's why I created The Off Duty Life Club: a seasonal snail-mail club for women 40+.

What's in the mail

Three real things
you can hold.
No screens involved.

Every season, an envelope shows up with your name on it. Inside is everything you need to put down the damn list and try something different.

01 · The Letter

A personal letter

A real letter from me introducing the season's room, like a note from the friend who always tells you
the truth.

02 · The Recipe

A seasonal
Life Recipe

Three to five small things to try: drink your coffee somewhere different, leave one chore unfinished on purpose, walk into that little shop you've walked based 100 times.

03 · The Key

A collectible
Room Key

Mark what you tried:
Felt good.
Felt like too much.
Absolutely not.
No app, password, or notifications. Just put your feet up and collect proof that you actually had
some fun.

Take what you want, leave the rest. You're not going for extra credit.

“I have now been walking everyday since you sent me info!
I wasn’t walking. I would come home from school exhausted.
I would set the goal for 30 minute walk. And then decide I was too tired and it seemed too much. I love your idea of setting the goal at 10 minutes. I set a timer. It goes off. I know I made my goal and then want to keep walking. Walked for a half hour last night!
Def can keep it going when school starts. ”

The four rooms

One room at a time, you don't need to renovate your
whole life.

01

The Exhale Room

Now open · This season

Learning to stop without earning it first.

02

The Playroom

Next season

Remembering what you actually like doing for fun.

03

The Gathering Room

Coming

Real connection, not just being surrounded by people.

04

The Someday Room

Coming

Trying the class, restaurant, or weird little shop you keep meaning to.

We're starting in the Exhale Room.

Is this you?

You'll recognize yourself in about four seconds.

  • "You're the one everyone asks: What's for dinner? What time are we leaving? What are we doing this weekend?"
  • "You sit down, remember you're short on steps, and get right back up."
  • "'Practice self-care' makes you want to throw your phone."

You don't need to become less responsible. You just need a reason to put the list down once in a while.

Why I built this

I spent 20+ years helping women with health and fitness. Eventually our conversations stopped being about grams of carbs in oatmeal.

Women didn't need a stricter plan, they needed room for an actual life between all the things they were doing to improve it.

Honestly, so did I.

Health should be part of your life. It shouldn't have your life in a chokehold.
