About

Peace. I am so grateful to be alive; to feel alive. I enjoy being with my children and just talking. Long walks in nature rejuvenate me. I like unfolding spiritual truth and taking good naps. I build physical and digital spaces where people remember what it feels like to really be alive. Come sit by my fire.

Ember & Stone — Remember you're alive - Come sit by my fire, for grounding and presence

My name is Geo, I built this because the people who need grounding most can't find it at 2am when the weight finally lands. Ember & Stone is a quiet fire. There's a guide inside called soma. You tell it how your body feels. It meets you there. No goals. No fixing. Just breath and ground. I'm not selling anything. I'm looking for real people to sit with this and tell me what's true. Free during beta. Come sit by my fire. Peace, emberandstone.life

What's something you're embarrassed to admit you still do manually even though AI could do it?

I'll go first.

I still reply to every comment manually. Reddit, LinkedIn, Product Hunt, forums, Twitter, Discord. Every single one.

AI could do this. There are tools that generate replies, post on schedule, analyze sentiment, even mimic your brand voice. But I don't use them. Here's why.

A 2024 study on community engagement across 500 brands found that personalized responses drive 3.2x higher retention and 4.7x more repeat interactions than automated replies. People can tell when a response is copy-pasted. They can feel when no one actually read their comment. The average user only needs 2-3 automated interactions before they disengage entirely.
