I love reading your newsletter each week and wanted to share with you a podcast that I've been listening to. It's all about escaping the NXIVM cult and is worth a listen.
You can find it at: Search CBC.ca/uncover season/escaping NXIVM. For some reason the episodes aren't listed in order so you have to scroll through and, it's from a few years ago but I really believe the information in this podcast is still relevant today.
Thank you for sharing your cheery perspective on life, it makes my Monday mornings brighter. :)
What I love most about you deciding to make a change in order to add the word friendly to your personality word mash (a FANTASTIC mash btw) is that rather than making a great big plan you choose such a small, simple thing. Especially since I really think that’s all it takes to break through that overthinking pee-face shyness -- that and being willing to be the first to talk, the first to reach out (this is what I’m personally working on!)
In NYC, it may not be the best idea to have an open and inviting face all the time. Some of the mentally unstable people see this as easy prey. When you live here long enough, you can forget to bring down your protective facade.
