Hi, I’m Debby Meadows: Musician, artist, teacher, professor, recovering prodigy. Walking back from 15 years creative exile.

Tell Me Something True: The Perry Parallax: My burnout + religious trauma + exile, mirrored through Steve Perry’s arc. Not biography. Archetypal framework for creatives healing cages, exiles, and shadows.

For: Burned-out creatives, ex‑evangelicals, anyone else who walked away from a creative talent/literary work/research/etc. they felt was no longer their own.

Weekly Chapter Drops and:

- Memoir chapters from *Tell Me Something True*

- Jung‑ish reflections on shadow, somatic integration, creative return

No guru wisdom. Real, raw work in real time—light + dark.

Start here: (pinned):

1. [Interlude: The Perry Parallax]

2. [Chapter 1: The Algorithm]

3. [Chapter 2: Built for Containment]

I love hearing from you! Out of all the places on the internet you could be, I’m so grateful you are here. Comment and share - help a Kentucky girl out!
