The New Year Tea
Session on January 1, 2026 with Tyler
Hey bud!
What a delightful way to start 2026 with you!
I am pretty content with my social life as a "tea medium", and it's guests like you – curious, kind-hearted, and open-minded, that I most enjoy sharing tea with.
I wish you well in your journey, and hope to see you again!
