E17 In Translation: What the People Who Love Me See (That I Don’t)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What happens when you let the people who love you reflect you back to yourself?
In this first episode of a new solo series called In Translation, I celebrate turning 35 by reading handwritten notes from local friends and family answering two prompts:
What’s one thing I should try this year?
What’s one thing I do well — or could do better?
From skydiving and Bollywood dancing to learning a fourth language, hosting more French meetups, and continuing to make people feel heard — this episode becomes a live, vulnerable reflection on growth, identity, and the power of community.
As someone who spends the year asking others about their journeys on From Where to Here, this is me pausing to process my own.
If you care about:
- Personal growth through community
- Language learning and cultural curiosity
- Becoming a better listener
- Building meaningful connections
- Living intentionally in your 30s
This episode is for you.
Because growth doesn’t happen in big leaps.
It happens in translation.
