It’s a new year! In the Gregorian calendar! Let’s get organized.
For me (and I am sure, for you) it is a busy couple of months coming up. In hopes of adapting to the circumstances and producing work as gracefully as possible, I’ve decided to restructure Palate Cleanse and see what happens. The idea is more focused work, more levity, and more bang for your buck.
WHAT YOU GET FOR FREE
Consistent seasonal posts, as usual. Brain exfoliations, hit+not hits, and esoteric thoughts on very mundane things. On food, culture, wellness, and literally? The world.
WHAT YOU GET FOR PAID
A new feature: VIBE-BASED REVIEWS
When asked my dream job, I’ve often said: 1. chic psychoanalyst 2. high-paid businessman whose job mainly operates through socializing and dinners and 3. (and most impassioned one) FOOD CRITIC. But a little media secret? Those critic jobs are hard to get, often driven by Instagram metrics and PR. How many critics do you know that have actually done the work they’re writing about? I’ve long wondered what gets lost in that space between lived experience and the power to critique.
VIBE-BASED REVIEWS will be a monthly feature on Where to Go. Restaurants, bars, grocery stores, cafés, bath houses, and wellness-y places. More about what the experience feels like in the body and less about who owns the place. With an understanding of what the labor to present these experience actually involves, these vignettes will be both mindful and FUN! Is there any other way to be??
First access to video content! I recently realized that:
This is SO COOL! I think it also means that you deserve more content that feels immediate, engaging, and allows us to share a world together. This means little videos on the way! CHANNEL CLEANSE coming soon.
First access to IRL events + 15% off tickets.
Meditation meals, pop-ups, wine stuff — you will be VIP.
I’m really excited about this restructure! :) Lighter, cleaner, fresher. Lmk if you have any questions — I am here! Thank you for coming along this journey with me. xoxo
I can’t fuckin wait ❤️
