INTRODUCTION

By Lis Nagy

Savoring Substack: What Matters Most

When I first stumbled upon Substack, it felt as though I had wandered into a children’s sandbox where everyone had already learned to “play nice”—a place where kindness, compassion, and respect ruled the realm.

After months of exploration, the depth of wisdom, soul-filling stories, and the ever-present longing to connect in profoundly meaningful ways rose like beacons of light, sprinkling joy into daily scrolls.

Tiny tendrils of hope began spreading outward. I wondered: How can I lift these voices and send them soaring across Substack—and beyond? Another link in the ever-present quest for community and connection.

At the same time, I felt a deep desire to share what other creators were experiencing—their inspiring sparks, interactions, and friendships that breathed meaning into daily rhythms.

And so, this project was born of a methodical ache, an incessant yearning to honor the inspiring voices who share themselves fully, wholly, completely. To capture the heart and soul of what truly matters most on Substack—and what keeps creators showing up with compassion, grace, and reverence for the creative process.

The project has blossomed into a soul-filling journey of savored friendships and awe-inspiring stories. I send chasm-deep gratitude to every. Single. Creator. Who took precious time, light, and love to reflect on what matters most to them on this platform.

In total, there are 29 submissions—each one arriving on the gifted wings of inspiration in its unique form: reflections, stories, poetry, even a personal letter.

May Savoring Substack: What Matters Most bring you deep pleasure in the reading, and soul-filling inspiration around the infinite possibilities of connection, community, and honoring the artist’s journey.

Thank you—one and all—for believing in this project, for lifting your voices upward and outward, and for sharing your gifts with such grace and compassion.

May your passions soar on wings of beauty and joy.
And may peace, light, and love be close companions—today, tomorrow, always.

With deep love and gratitude,
Lis 💖
