EPISODE HIGHLIGHT
“There’s always a gathering inside of us. Sometimes what feels really delightful about being in solitude is that you get to reacquaint yourself with that gathering that’s inside of you.”
- Ross Gay

THE SANCTITY OF A JOURNAL ︎ LITERARY HUB
“Because, over the years, I’ve shared so much of myself online: my apartment, my clothes, and in the somewhat near future, my book. While not a diary by definition, it’s a vessel that contains stories I never thought would see the light of day. It’s hard work, and as someone who’s still getting used to the idea of having readers, ‘sharing’ is now a nuanced practice. But by putting pen to paper, I’ve noticed I’d rather share in the direction of genuine connection than pure aesthetic consumption.”
