Join the Healthy in Heart Community
Some people read a thing. Others notice what it is made of.
If you’re the kind of reader who spots the detail placed too carefully, the word repeated one time too many, or the pattern hiding beneath the plain surface—you’ll feel right at home here.
The Healthy in Heart Friday Update is more than a newsletter. It’s a weekly gathering for people who care about whole-being wellness, thoughtful living, and learning to look a little deeper.
When you subscribe, you’ll receive every new article as it’s published, plus a personal Friday letter filled with reflections, encouragement, recipes, behind-the-scenes updates, and two opportunities to receive something extra each month.
Exclusive to subscribers: Enjoy a first look at every new release with an advance chapter or curated sample before publication.
What Lands in Your Inbox
When I publish a new article, you’ll get a notification right away so you never miss it.
Every Friday you’ll also receive the Healthy in Heart Friday Update, a personal letter that includes:
- The recipe of the week
- A Sabbath meditation
- Reflections from my heart
- Behind-the-scenes updates
- Whatever YHVH has been teaching me
- A hidden Pattern Detective clue
There’s No clutter.
No spam.
No sales emails.
As a welcome gift, new subscribers receive a 15% off coupon plus an exclusive forever-discount that never expires — just my way of saying I’m glad you’re here.
Two Gifts, Every Month
Subscribing doesn’t just get you a letter. It gets you into both of these.
It automatically includes you in two different monthly gifts.
🎁 The Monthly Subscriber Appreciation Gift
One gift, drawn at random, every single month.
This one is simple.
Every active subscriber who has been opening the newsletter and clicking through to articles during the past 30 days is automatically entered.
- No forms.
- No points.
- No extra work.
Just show up.
One reader is chosen every month to receive a surprise gift.
Because sometimes it’s nice to simply say thank you.
This one is for showing up. That’s the ONLY requirement.
🔍 The Pattern Detective Challenge
One gift, earned, every single month.
This one is different.
Every Friday, a small puzzle is tucked inside the newsletter.
Sometimes it’s a clue.
…or a cipher.
…or something that doesn’t quite belong.
Sometimes it points somewhere else on this website.
Sometimes it points back at itself.
Gather the clues throughout the month.
Put them together.
When the final Friday newsletter arrives, submissions open.
Be the first Pattern Detective to correctly solve the month’s puzzle, and a surprise gift is yours.
The clues live only inside the Friday newsletter.
- They are never posted on social media.
- They are never published elsewhere on this website.
If you aren’t subscribed, you simply can’t play. This isn’t a marketing trick. It’s just how the game is built.
This one is for paying attention.
You’re entered in the first one automatically. The second one is there whenever you feel like looking twice.
If You’re Looking for More Community?
The Healthy in Heart Friday Update is just one way we stay connected.
If you’re looking for deeper conversation and ongoing encouragement, there are two additional newsletters connected to our online communities:
RISE Wellness Community
A weekly newsletter and meeting for those seeking whole-being wellness through intentional habits, honest conversation, and encouragement as we grow together.
Sabbath Community
A weekly newsletter and invitation to slow down, gather around Scripture, and experience the beauty of Sabbath with others who desire to walk more closely with YHVH.
Each community has its own purpose, rhythm, and newsletter. If one (or both) speaks to where you are in this season, I’d love to welcome you there as well.
My Promise to You
- Your email is private and will never be sold or shared
- You can unsubscribe anytime with one click
- I only show up in your inbox when I have something worth saying
Keep My Emails Finding You
To make sure my letters land in your inbox and not your spam or promotions folder:
- Add [email protected] to your contacts
- If an email lands in your promotions tab, move it to your inbox and select “always deliver to inbox”
- Opening emails and replying now and then helps your provider learn you want to hear from me
This matters more than it sounds. If the Friday letter lands in spam, you miss the puzzle — and you miss your entry into the monthly gift.
And if you ever need to unsubscribe, just click the link at the bottom of any email. No hard feelings. I’m glad you were here.
