Need to talk to someone?

🛑 🌟 Listener Status 🛑 Thank you for visiting my profile! At this time, I am not accepting new member chats unless I initiate the request myself. This helps me maintain balance, stay grounded and offer the most thoughtful intentional support when I’m able to be fully present.   *This does not apply to listeners who are seeking mentorship, resources, peer support or any related 7 Cups matters*  💬 Looking for a Listener? If you’re seeking someone to talk to right now, you can browse available listeners using this link:    https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/ I appreciate your understanding as I focus on intentional outreach, mentorship, leadership and other related aspects of where my 7 Cups journey has landed me. *Always eager to gain more knowledge, growth, wisdom, experience... Your feedback is incredibly valuable, as it helps me improve as a listener and ensures that I can provide the best support to others in the 7 Cups community. If you have a moment, I’d greatly appreciate it if you could leave a review or share any feedback you think would be helpful.*

Hi :) I hope to listen to you and help in any possible way whether it's through working together to find ways and resources to help you out of whatever situation you're in, or simply being a non-judgemental listening ear when you need one. Send me a message if you'd like to talk, I'll reply as soon as I can. 

Fluent in anxiety, panic, and finding the funny moments hidden inside life’s most chaotic chapters. Surviving plenty of personal twists and turns over the years has left a premium supply of genuine kindness and deep consideration to share. Need a safe space to vent, slow down, and breathe? Step right up. Whether navigating overwhelming stress or just having a wild day, offering a deeply empathetic, considerate, and calming anchor is the top priority here. Safe space, deep empathy, and absolute zero judgment. Whenever you're ready to unpack the noise, let's take a breath and figure it out together.

Hey there and welcome! Glad you found me on 7 Cups. I would love to assist in any way that I can, however, there are a few things to address:  - If what you wish to discuss is an issue related to sex or pleasure (or trying to RP in any capacity), I will reject your request. I am ace (asexual), and even more than that, I have personal boundaries that will not be crossed. Do not reach out just to tell me that my sexuality, or other people's sexualities, are not valid. However, if you want to talk to me about sexuality, I am more than happy to have a conversation! Be respectful to others!  -  The subjects listed as those I cover, I have personal experience and/or am comfortable helping you with; however, there are also those I don't have the knowledge base to aid with or am uncomfortable speaking with (again, sexual topics, self-harm, abuse, etc.). Please consider that if you send me a personal request.  - If at any time you feel as though a different listener would be better, let me know, and we can either end the chat or I will help you find someone else. I will not be offended, as not everyone connects with the first person they try to talk to. Understand that I will do the same if I feel I am not qualified or a situation arises that brings me discomfort. My comfort as a listener matters, too. Do not abuse my kindness or the kindness of others here.  About me!  - I work in the natural resource sphere in the US, and believe there is quite a bit of value in open communication and taking care of your mental health. Those affected by current administration, don't hesitate to reach out, I'm angry, too.  - As mentioned before, I'm Ace! Specifically, demisexual. Hit me up if you want to discuss sexuality! I also discuss topics on gender, transitioning, dysmorphia, etc. Those in this space who are also being affected by the current administration, I hear and see you.  - I have an anxiety disorder! Fun stuff, to be sure. So, if you want to learn more about anxiety and how to potientally manage yours or look into resources, reach out. Thanks for the read! And, I hope we can help you out here!

Here to support you through the hardships you're facing. You're not alone!

I’m someone who cares deeply about making people feel heard and understood. I try to bring empathy, patience, and honesty into every conversation, and I’m always working on becoming a better communicator. I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed or stuck, and that’s why I’m passionate about creating a safe, calm space for others to open up. I’m thoughtful, supportive, and genuinely interested in helping people feel less alone.

How you feel is perfectly okay. 🌞 Please be aware that I will not be offering advice, as it could be very harmful to both you and your situation, and could cause offence. 🌞 You will suffer no judgement from me. 🌞 Our chat will be as supportive and comforting as possible. 🌞 Finally, I will make sure that you are heard. Your voice deserves to be listened to. -------------------------  🌻 My Involvements 🌻   🌻 Quality 🌻  o Verified Adult-Teen Listener: I completed an interview and a mock chat with a highly experienced listener to show that I'm suitable to chat with teens, and a listener of high quality.  🌻 o Listener Verifier Team: I verify listeners through the Verified Listener project!  🌻 o [Teen] Quality Mentoring: I mentor adult and teen listener quality!  🌻 o Quality Mentor Leading: I lead the Safety Team.

***Please note: I am not currently available for 1-on-1 support chats. With my roles as a community mentor leader, group support mentor, and chatroom moderator I will be focusing my efforts primarily on community teams, forums and group support activities.*** It's not a community without 'u'! About me: Others have described me as an empathetic individual who strives to be objective, motivational, and empowering. I do firmly believe that if you challenge yourself to look at a situation from a different angle you will see options you have overlooked, and that sometimes even unpalatable solutions need to be seen for what they are, possible solutions. I aim to offer a respectful and non-judgmental ear, keeping in mind that my personal values and beliefs are just that: Mine and need only apply to me/my life.  I am a member of the LGBTQ+ community, some of the labels I use, or have used, to describe(not define) myself include but are not limited to, lesbian, homoromantic asexual and demiromantic. While I am open to and accepting of all members of the LGBTQ+ community, I feel my personal experience makes me most suited to supporting those who relate to or don similar labels. Now entering my 40's I have had experiences with a variety of issues from early childhood to present. I have found this can enhance my natural ability to empathize while still offering alternate perspectives. I primarily provide support for and am most comfortable with topics I have indicated in my profile. There are certain topics that I do not take chats involving, namely drugs, alcohol, detailed discussion of sexual topics, or any which contravene the rules of 7 Cups. "No matter what we have come through, or how many perils we have safely passed, or how imperfect and jagged our life has been, we cannot in our heart of hearts imagine how it could have been different. As we look back on it, it slips in behind us in orderly disarray, and, with all its mistakes, acquires a sort of eternal fitness, and even, at times, a poetic glamour." – Randolph Silliman Bourne

***** Not taking any 1-1 chats right now please use https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/ to find a Listener. ***** Will not take any chats with sex of any nature  I am sorry ***** ***** Current Roles *****  Adult and Teen Listener Forum and Room Supporter - for Mindfulness and 50+ Community Mentor - 50+ Needs reply Charoom Supporter - Listener support room 24/7 Mentor for new Listeners Peer supporter  I joined in December of 2017, to help those who have nowhere  to turn. I am here for new listeners also to mentor because beginning a role like a Listener can be scary and want to give back to them. to help guide them and supply the appropriate tolls ( forms, links ) to help them succeed in their role. I help also with any concerns a new listener may have. I have real fun making forum posts for topics that help in my groups Mindfulness and 50+. I think of topics and write a forum post either to educare us more or just to update on a topic of choice. I enjoy writing the post and hearing feedback from others on how a person feels about the topics . My experience on 7 cups makes me love the roles I have and new roles I may apply for. I have grown so much with 7 cups and use certain chat strategies in my friendships offline.
