Hey there, whoever you are! My name is Dan, and I'm a Listener here at 7 Cups of Tea. To share a bit about myself, I'm passionate about writing, singing, hiking, cooking, and helping others. My greatest dream is to one day become a professional author, and to that end, I've written a novel that I'm currently working towards getting published!

Of the many lessons I've learned thus far in my life, one that remains among the most resonant is that we are all, as I've heard it said, "guests" in each other's lives. It is therefore a precious gift to me whenever someone chooses to include me in their choices, be it on this site or anywhere. In those moments, I will honor that gift by making time for that person, and by putting forth every effort to be as helpful as I can be.

The shifts that I've assigned to myself on this site are on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 6:00PM to 8:00PM (Eastern Standard Time). If I don't contact you first, please know that you are ALWAYS welcome and encouraged to reach out to me, regardless of whether I'm on or offline, and I will respond to you the first chance I get. I thank you for reading all of this, whoever you are, and I'm sincerely looking forward to connecting with you for a chat!
