Okayyyy so you’re probably here like WTF, right?

Fair. I’ve been off the grid for about six months (I sawyyy), but I promise I wasn’t just out here doing nothing.. I’ve been building two of the biggest projects of my life—what I truly believe are my life projects.

Aurora + Permission to Heal.

Aurora is an AI-powered bot I’ve been developing, and I’ll be releasing it right here on terra-gotta.com. The bot’s logic will be fully open source (yep, free to explore and expand), and I’ll be offering a full course to walk you through setup—from basic installation to customizing her personality. I’ll also be hosting conversations around open source culture, AI ethics, and the future of responsible tech. You’ll find those discussions live on Twitch and in my Discord community.

My second project is something a little more personal.

Permission to Heal is a book I’ve been writing—an experimental piece that weaves together trauma, healing, and growth. It plays with style and structure, breaks the fourth wall, and invites you into something real. It’s the kind of book I’ve always wanted to write—so I am.

It’ll be released chapter by chapter right here on the site and on Kindle (in four volumes). Each chapter is paired with a video, a song, or audiobook-style narration to enhance the experience. On the website, it’ll follow a tiered “pay-what-you-can” model. On Kindle, it’ll be priced by volume (because Kindle doesn’t allow free books—boo).

Here’s the thing:

I don’t believe knowledge or growth should be stuck behind a paywall. Ever. It limits our potential as a collective. So every digital resource I release will be available for free, with optional contributions for those who want to support. No pressure—just possibility.

I can’t wait to share what’s next.
