Coach Thom @spark.fit · 1hEnding my evening with a cup of chamomile and a bit more journaling feels good. Writing group was a beautiful reminder to have fun with crafting a story. The voices that hold me back are just echoes of a critic that holds no real power. Tonight’s sleep will be deep. G’night 3260
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 4hChecking my Fire Watch app, now that fire season has wound down a lot, means getting some amazing images from the variety of cameras that are out there. 0150
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 06/10/2026My simple, beautiful birthday adventure reminded me that I live here because it’s a place where I can be me - all of me - without fear. Awkward, bumbling, goofy, sparkly, intense, curious me, without fear or shame. That realization was the keystone piece I hadn’t realized over my first year back. 2341
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 06/10/2026What I kept running into, over the last year, as I tried to make local connections, meet new faces, and resume my old life here, was a definite feeling/signal of “not yet.” I wasn’t actually here-here. I wasn’t actually available, or held capacity for relationship-building like I do now. 1130
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 06/10/2026I spent the last year resettling myself after the sojourn to the desert. It has, in fact, taken me the entire year to fully settle, and expand my sense of the word ‘home.’ I think I set expectations that I’d hit the ground running, that I’d just pick up where I left off, that it would be easy… 2790
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 06/10/2026Cozy beanie hoodie blanket mornings are my fave. Good morning from me and my beard! ✨🦍💗 71120
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 06/10/2026I may be pushing myself a bit too hard and am really going to lean into a rest day ASAP. I do like tracking my training load, and getting this bird’s eye view of effort. It is a metric I’ve come to need in order to make wiser choices. 090
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 05/10/2026Our first proper autumn foggy morning has arrived! And I found a gorilla in the mist 🦍 1960
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 05/10/2026Because I definitely need to be reading three different books at once, each to match the vibes I feel throughout the day. 😅 — This is a practice I am familiar with through my recovery work, and I want to understand it better, and share what I learn along the way 🪷 0170
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 05/10/2026In this house, we keep the Tension Tamed 🫖 In this house, there’s always a spot on the couch for you. In this house, showing up, as you are, is celebrated. In this house, you are welcomed. ✨ 1502
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 05/10/2026These are an amazing bit of plant evolution. AGGRESSIVELY sticky/pokey grass seed pods got caught on my beach blanket and they need pliers to remove them 4260
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 04/10/2026Freshly-shorn noggin & throat, lunch in my belly, bag packed with all the things. Waiting on a friend and then we are off! 1501

Coach Thom @spark.fit · 03/10/2026Enchantment isnt about magical thinking; it is about being fully present in the world. 0150
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 03/10/2026I started this day with an extraordinary client session. I ended this day with an extraordinary client session. It’s been about .07 seconds since I last said this, but my life is… extraordinary. So thankful. SOOO thankful. 🥰 1520
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 02/10/2026I touched Zone 5 cardio and started to consider who my designee should be in case of a mortal cardiac event. And then I let that shit go and enjoyed the challenge. 1370
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 02/10/2026Those limiting beliefs? The stories you tell yourself - and share with others that hedge you in, dim your light, that mask as “humility” but are actually trained silence? Yeah. Let that shit go. Be your true self. 3251
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 02/10/2026Good morning! Coffee’s on and Coach is ready for this day :) Let’s show up with some openness, curiosity, and a sprinkle of mischief, shall we? ✨🍂🧙♂️ 41765
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 02/10/2026There. Home. Absolutely *saturated* with generosity, warm and kind words, thoughts, feelings, and so many beautiful photos and moments from this entire day. Best birthday so far? YES. THANK YOU. 171303
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 01/10/2026Stop 4: Sagebrush Obtained. This scent brings me uncanny calm. It grows in my favorite biomes and always reminds me to find bigger, open spaces. 1711
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 01/10/2026I can’t explain it, but this is what healing looks like for me. 2721
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 01/10/2026You know what rabbit hole I feel like I’m gonna fall down next? These. It’s a Masonic lodge from 1906 in Dufur, OR, but these are ***everywhere*** and I literally know nothing about them other than it was a fraternal (men’s) social club - and even that I’m not sure about. BUT I AM CURIOUS. 0231
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 01/10/2026Holy moly have I located a *gem* Dufur, OR. Dufur Market. Absolutely adorable spot, full of things that I’ve also enjoyed getting through Azure Standard (an alternative way to get really great grocery products, based out here) azurestandard.com 0291
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 01/10/2026Stop 3: Rowena Crest I haven’t seen this view since 2024, and it absolutely welcomed me back. Bonus Mt Adams sighting over the horizon 0271
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 01/10/2026Stop 2: Artifacts Books, Hood River — Picking up two amazing little treasures and meeting an agnostic queer person behind the counter was precisely why I stopped. Hood River always makes me feel like I belong here. Today feels absolutely the same feels. 🥰 1300
Coach Thom @spark.fit · 01/10/2026Stop 1: Bonneville Fish Hatchery to say hello to the sturgeon and trout. 3341
