Hard Heart, Soft Heart
Thursday, January 9, 2025

I’m about to break my own rule and get a little too personal for a newsletter that gets read by this many people. Why? Not for personal comfort’s sake. After all, vulnerability opens a person up to being misunderstood. It can bring out the “fixer” in others and leave you feeling like a project....

Pitch Perfect Speech
Thursday, December 12, 2024

Signing up to learn a new language always brings some challenges with it.

An Open Door for the Mixtec
Thursday, October 1, 2020
