About HARMONEY

Welcome to HARMONEY - a space where harmony begins by embracing your authentic self, not society’s script.

A few years ago, I had what some might call a "mid-life crisis," but I think of it more as the beginning of a journey. I was living a life that wasn’t mine: chasing titles and things, following career paths that didn’t align with who I am, and playing roles that felt like I was stuck on a loop in someone else’s playlist.

And then it hit me - why was I playing someone else’s songs when I could write my own? That realization sent me on a journey to discover who I truly am, what brings true Joy, and how to live a life that feels like me (this is an ongoing journey, not one that has an end).

Through blending my background in Western medicine, my love of philosophy and psychology, and a pinch of “holistic hippie” vibes, I stumbled upon something: harmony. Not the surface-level kind, but the deep, soul-tingling harmony that happens when you stop pretending to be someone you’re not and start living as the person you are.

HARMONEY was born from this journey, and I created it to share the treasures I uncover along the way. Here, you’ll find tools, stories, and perspectives to help you find yourself, be yourself, and harmonize yourself. Whether it’s through the blog (lovingly named “Harmonious Shit”), the poetry corner (“Poet Tree”), or the shop where you can snag some Harmoney-inspired goodies, this space is for anyone ready to explore their own path to harmony.

Why HARMONEY?

Because life gets so much better when you stop fighting who you are. When I started living authentically, everything changed. Each day became a chance to discover something new—about myself, nature, the universe, and even why chores are more fun when you’re dancing through them. Every revelation felt like finding another piece of life’s puzzle.

And here’s the thing: this isn’t just my journey. It’s universal. We’ve all had those 3 AM moments of doubt, wondering if we’re stuck or lost. But you’re not. You just need permission to embrace who you are—and that permission was always yours to give.

Harmony isn’t about chasing money or living for someone else’s expectations. It’s about finding your groove, your truth, your spark. And HARMONEY is a place for fellow explorers to connect, share, and grow together.

I don’t have all the answers—far from it. But I’ve learned that even in moments when life feels heavy and happiness seems out of reach, there’s always something within our grasp to turn things around. Through small shifts in perspective and self-discovery, I realized that we all have the power within ourselves to write our story.

Life gets better when we stop pretending to have it all figured out and start enjoying the messy, beautiful process of figuring it out—because every step forward, no matter how small, feels pretty great.

So come as you are. Explore the site, share your poetry, browse the shop, or just hang out and soak in some ideas. Let’s harmonize life, one “aha moment” at a time.

P.S. HARMONEY wouldn’t be what it is without my other half. He’s the big-picture thinker to my task-oriented doer—the fuel to the fire I tend (though he actually may be better at actual fire tending). Together, we create a balance that makes true harmony possible. This balance inspired HARMONEY, and this space is as much his vision as it is mine.
