Different ways of showing up.

Built-up energy: found 🤪

So... what do we do with all of this energy?

Many of us are carrying a lot right now.
Fear, grief, anger, uncertainty, often without a clear place to put it.

Letting it move matters. Finding outlets through joy, play, and movement isn’t a way of ignoring what’s happening. It’s a way of surviving it. These moments help our bodies release stress, stay connected, and remember that we’re still here.

In hard times, allowing joy is not irresponsible or naïve. It can be grounding. It can be protective. And sometimes, choosing joy (especially when things feel heavy) is an act of resistance.

When was the last time you let yourself use joy or play as an act of resistance?

If you’re afraid you or someone you love may encounter ICE, support exists, and you deserve it.
This system continues to cause harm in our communities, and we refuse to stay silent about it.

Save this. Share this. Send it to someone who may need it.
We protect each other by staying informed and by speaking up.

It’s not “just an animal.” It’s the one who greeted you at the door.
Who followed you from room to room.
Who somehow knew when you were sad, and stayed.

Pet loss grief can feel complicated.
You might feel silly for how much it hurts, or guilty for wondering if it’s too much.
But the truth is, losing them is losing unconditional love.
It changes your routines, your nervous system, your sense of safety.

There’s no “right” timeline for that kind of healing.
And you don’t have to carry it alone.

If you’ve lost a pet recently, or even years ago, and the grief still catches in your throat sometimes, therapy can help you hold it with more gentleness.

💛 Our therapists at Kindman & Co. are here to help you process loss in all its forms.
Book a free discovery session today, you deserve support that honors the love you still feel.

Learning how to talk about your feelings isn’t intuitive, and for many people, communicating your feelings can feel uncomfortable, overwhelming, or even unsafe.

In this blog, Kaitlin Kindman, co-founder of Kindman & Co., disabled, activist, and feminist; shares how to talk about your feelings in a way that’s paced, supportive, and grounded in nervous-system awareness.

She explores why expressing emotions can feel so difficult, how your body responds when you try to speak honestly, and what can help when you want to communicate your feelings without shutting down or over-explaining.

If you’ve been searching for guidance on how to talk about your feelings, (especially within relationships or while navigating identity, safety, and self-trust) this blog offers a thoughtful place to start.

If vulnerability makes you freeze, overshare, or immediately want to change the subject...
you’re not alone.

Your nervous system learned that openness wasn’t always safe, so now it hesitates. That’s not weakness. That’s protection.

We go deeper into why vulnerability feels so scary and how to approach it with more safety and self-trust in our blog "How Vulnerability Is Terrifying—Here’s Why You Should Try It Anyway."

We are angry.
And we are not letting this fade.

We are sick of watching systems, federal enforcement actions that continue to harm our communities, families, and bodies, operate without accountability or care.

This isn’t an isolated incident. It is part of a pattern of aggressive, violent tactics used in immigration enforcement that have sparked nationwide protest and fear, including multiple shootings during operations in recent months and weeks.

We will not pretend this is normal.
We will not stay silent while structures of power generate fear instead of safety.
We will not smooth this over.
We will not call this “unfortunate” and move on.

There is nothing acceptable about systems that terrorize, dehumanize, and kill, then expect silence in return.

There is nothing therapeutic about fear.
There is nothing just about violence enacted by institutions meant to protect.

We hold the anger.
We refuse to let this go.

Sometimes healing looks like journaling or therapy or long talks that leave you teary-eyed.
And sometimes it looks like laughter, mint chip ice cream, and remembering that joy counts too.

These Soft Serve Reminders are little scoops of gentleness.
Invitations to hold space for beauty even when life feels heavy. Because joy isn’t denial or distraction.

For many communities, joy is resistance: a way of refusing to let suffering have the final word and a way of staying connected, alive, and human in the face of hardship. 

Joy doesn’t cancel the hard stuff. It sits beside it. It reminds us we’re not alone, that connection and shared laughter matter, and that sometimes growth looks sweet, slow, and sprinkled with joy. 🍦🫶

Black History Month isn’t a marketing moment.
It’s a reminder that history lives in the present — in bodies, relationships, and systems.

We believe therapy must name the world people are actually living in.
Always.

If you’ve been carrying a lot quietly, this is for you.

Maybe you’re showing up to work, relationships, and responsibilities, but underneath, there’s stress, frustration, numbness, or that constant feeling of holding it all together. Maybe you’ve thought about therapy, but sitting one-on-one and trying to explain everything feels overwhelming.

Guys Night: A Hangout for Men is a space to take the pressure off.

This is a therapist-led, structured, and confidential group designed to feel supportive, not clinical or intimidating. A place to talk honestly, listen, connect, and better understand what’s actually going on inside, without being judged, rushed, or “fixed.”

This group is LGBTQ+ affirming and inclusive of trans, nonbinary, and masc-identifying folks. You don’t need to fit a mold to belong here.

You don’t need the perfect words.
You don’t need a crisis.
You just need to show up.

There is still limited space available for Guys Night: A Hangout for Men in Los Angeles.

If this resonates, trust that.
