It’s okay. We’re all a bit burned out.

I’m mostly held together by tea, cat toes, and curiosity.

I make thoughtful, slightly odd, and wonderful things that help us make sense of being human and learn how to lead from the soul.

Grab a mug, pull up a chair.

I made a thing. Kinda magical. A bit quirky. Totally charming. I created an interactive digital oracle experience for you here.

If you talk to your tea, or suspect your kettle has opinions, you might love this little thing I made.

I created this experience for those who crave a little whimsy in their personal development journey, a companion for a journal prompt, and an always-waiting ear for your curious heart.

For those who want to reflect on their thoughts and know themselves better. You want depth, a bit of joy, and a bit of curiosity along with it.

Esby is a story-rich, forest-dwelling crone with no patience for judgment and a fondness for the little things and messy truths. She will pull a card for you and describe the story it tells.

So, grab your journal, bring a question or a feeling, and pull a card to see what Esby's wisdom has in store for you today.

A magical little house where Esby the Oracle from mysoulbasedlife.com might live, with a round blue door, brick walls, and a green earth-covered roof, surrounded by colourful potted flowers and plants.

Why I Make These Things

Meaning-making is our oldest survival skill —> but it’s easy to lose it in the noise.
So I make things that slow us down: creative mirrors, poetic astrology, language for the in-between.
I am definitely not here to fix anything or imply we even need fixing (ick).

They’re reminders that you’re already whole, just occasionally scrambled.
