UNCRUMPLED

A weekly healing letter from Ivan James

You’re not broken. You’re becoming.

There was a moment in my life when I felt like a crumpled piece of paper—torn, bent, tossed aside.

I had hurt people.

I had lost myself.

I was hiding behind performance, addiction, and shame. But one day, in the middle of my healing journey, I found myself holding a wrinkled sheet of paper during an exercise.

And the prompt was simple:

“What would you say to the version of you you’ve tried to forget?”

That paper became my mirror. And I realized…

Healing isn’t about pretending the wrinkles never happened.

It’s about uncrumpling — slowly, gently, layer by layer — until you can see yourself clearly again.

Uncrumpled is my weekly letter to people who are ready to begin that process.

Every Monday, I send out a grounded, soul-centered email filled with:

  • Reflections on healing, identity, relationships, and faith

  • A weekly practice or prompt to help you reconnect with your true self

  • Masculine/Feminine polarity insights for balanced inner and relational work

  • Curated wisdom from trusted voices in the healing space

  • A soft space to begin or deepen your transformation

Subscribe below to receive Uncrumpled every week — and start healing the parts of you that were never broken, only buried.

I'M READY
