Thanks for the reminder that I can do something about it. This reminds me of our coffee together years ago discussing How to Raise and Adult as Real American was just coming out. You were dean of freshman so we had a memorable meeting as our son decided to take a year to recover from medical issues. My book project we discussed then was delayed due to my hospital work on Covid. Now I'm back and as always inspired by your perspectives, words, life, and writings. Thank you so much!! Pam

Julie, I am so sorry I missed this coffee chat. It sounds as though it was a wonderful time to share and learn and grow! And thank you for allowing me to learn even though I wasn't able to be present!

As always Julie, timely and relevant to my life! Where can we get the cool cards your friend Allie shared with the "Welcome the Wave" and "Soft Eyes" prompts? Is it a deck I can buy?

I have a yearly outing with a friend that I look forward to and am always left feeling tense and a bit hollow. It should be great fun. Your post helped me realize I am not alone in this and am looking for ways to make it better.

That's fabulous. I'm trying to take what I learned and have a direct convo with a family member. It requires guts. And the sense that I might actually feel better if I address this rather than let the discomfort live in my body.
