Lucy! Just enjoying this post, when I came across myself being recommended! Which has absolutely turned my Monday around! (been one of those days and this evening I've eaten a whole halloumi cheese whilst feeling sad). (Had a depressing date last night, surprise surprise). Anyway! more to the point, big thank you for recommending me and I'm so pleased you're enjoying my newsletter - i don't tend to share it with people I know as I find it quite exposing, so it really is generous of you to pass on the word of my closing party.
I love this post and also I love Cheryl (she has a substack!) I first came across her years ago, in the days before podcasts, and I used to listen to Dear Sugar. Which I might try and find and listen back to actually, because they were so insightful.
“I don’t really like dogs,” I said, for the first time ever out loud. - this made me laugh out loud. Well done for outing yourself.
Aaah I too know those bad date, whole halloumi times very well! I think your newsletter is ace and I know what you mean about feeling exposed sometimes but I think vulnerability can help people have deeper relationships with their friends and others. I might look up Cheryl’s podcast again, and I’m glad my dog confession made you laugh! Lots of love xx

Love the “There is nothing more interesting than a curious mind.” insight!
Would love a whole letter on Cheryl’s workshop too! x
