Come On In To The Bean Patch

Some things grow best together.

The Bean Patch is the heart of the Human Beans garden; a little corner of warmth, connection, and steady encouragement for people who are still growing through it.
It’s part newsletter, part community, and part greenhouse for new ideas'; a place where the stories go a little deeper, the conversations get a little cozier, and the quiet moments matter just as much as the big ones.

☕ Why We Need a Patch

In a world that never stops talking, The Bean Patch is an intentional pause; a soft, human space for reflection, laughter, and gentle honesty. It’s built for anyone who’s tired of the noise and just wants to hear something real again.

Because here’s the truth: growth doesn’t happen in isolation. We heal and learn and re-root best when we’re surrounded by other humans doing the same. The Bean Patch isn’t about perfect people or polished success stories. It’s about shared soil; about the common ground we all grow from.

🌾 What You’ll Find Here

Each Bean Patch newsletter is hand-written and heart-grown. You’ll get:

  • 🌿 Personal reflections and stories from me: honest, sometimes funny, sometimes tender, always real.

  • ☕ Behind-the-scenes notes from Human Beans Radio Publications: what we’re working on, what’s blooming next, and where the ideas come from.

  • 🪴 Gentle reminders & printable reflections: small, shareable things to post, gift, or keep close on the harder days.

  • 💌 Early looks at new books, merch, and projects: from mugs and candles to new releases under the Human Beans imprint.

  • 🌻 Community updates: highlights from our Facebook group and other social spaces, where real Beans are connecting, creating, and supporting each other.

Each issue is designed to feel like sitting down for a slow conversation; a letter from the garden, landing right in your inbox when you need it most.

🌼 Community & Connection

The Bean Patch extends beyond the newsletter. You’ll find us growing and gathering here, too:

  • 💬 Facebook Group – “Beans Talking to Beans”
    A kind, welcoming space to share stories, questions, progress, and encouragement. No competition, no judgment; just people remembering how to be human together.

  • 📸 Instagram & TikTok – @humanbeansradio
    Daily snippets, quotes, and behind-the-scenes glimpses from the studio and the garden.

  • 🎧 Spotify, YouTube, and Ottu Media
    Where the stories keep unfolding in the Human Beans Radio podcast.

Everything connects here; each medium, each moment, each human — like roots beneath the soil.

🌤 Join the Patch

Whether you sign up for the newsletter (just there below in the footer), join the Facebook group, or just stop by once in a while to listen, you’re part of it.
There’s no cost, no expectation, no pressure to “engage.” Just an open invitation to keep showing up for your own growth, however it looks today.

Because some days you bloom. Some days you just hold the soil together.
And both belong here.

Welcome to the Bean Patch, Bean. 🌱
