Today is special.
For the first time in years, I get to spend Mother’s Day with my mom — fully present, without flights to catch or deadlines hanging over me. After so many years of constant travel and screen time, it feels like a quiet retreat to simply be together.
No phones. No scrolling. Just the two of us.
I scheduled this email in advance because we’re spending the day walking through her garden, cooking from scratch, and thumbing through old photo albums. The kind of slow, grounding moments that don’t show up on your feed, but leave a lasting impression on your heart.
At Analog Social, this is what we’re about.
A new kind of wellness — one rooted in real relationships, deep work, and time well spent.
If you're craving more moments like this — more presence, more purpose, more community — you're not alone.
We're building something different:
A private, high-trust community for first-time founders, creatives, and ambitious people building something meaningful.
A digital home for real connection, not just consumption.
A network designed for those who want to thrive in the real world, not just perform in the digital one.
If that sounds like you, I’m accepting a limited number of applications for our founding membership.

And while you’re here...
I just launched our YouTube channel! I’ll be sharing the vision behind Analog Social and taking you behind the scenes as we build the future of connection.

A day like this can solicit a lot of different emotions, so I hope you find to be present with the people that matter the most to you.
Happy Mother’s Day,
Shae
Founder, Analog Social
