A Bit of a Wilder Take

2 min read · 2026 · A Hospital Somewhere

Picture being in a hospital. It's late at night; you're all alone. Lady Wisdom comes walking through the room you're in, all for entertainment, and she's wearing mystical clothes from a different land.

You've nestled in to whip up the interview best-selling piece for global in Toronto. A weird exchange ensues. There are cards splayed out on the table where you've set your trusty work behemoth, gently, down. You make eye contact, then flip a card as she stands, looking over from the other side. It's a Jack of Clubs. She points to one already face-up — it's the King of Hearts, or maybe Diamonds. She leaves, and you do a mystical pull:

Armed with a bit of confidence and some well-founded dread, you cut the deck and pull a 5 of Hearts. This one stands for emotional conflict, a restless heart, or a difficult crossroads in relationships. Slightly concerned for your composure, you pull one more just for fun. It's all in with the Queen of Clubs — a confident, intelligent, and charismatic achiever who uses intuition, sharp wit, and clear communication to manifest her goals.

Picture:

A friendly intermission ensues, and a friend tells you it's a different time. You question no further and listen to some background music as the newly emerged Queen of Clubs — armed with nothing but industry-leading practices and standing on the forefront of dipping face-first into a new field — a wannabe lawyer turned writer sets out on a new journey with everything to offer. I've added a normal article for a taste of the work we could end up doing together.

An email alert chimes in, and I'm adamantly looking forward to hearing from you.
