as the Pirouettes put it in one of their songs " Je prends le pli, je m'adapte aux péripéties." ("getting used to it, i'm adapting to the adventures"). Your writing's force and warmth is heightened by its beautiful conciseness, please keep up your inspiring work.

Everything about this *Chef’s kiss*

Indeed, the pivots create the friction we need to be able to enjoy both the highs and lows. A monotonous life is a very flat world. Thank you for your beautiful writing.

Your words are some of my favorite I read in the week. This is another perfect example of simple excellence!!

PS I haven't stopped listening to 'Ça va le faire' since you recommended it a little while back, I love that you have a French song of the week section

Love that section about pivots as adaptation rather than failure. <3 <3

This resonated deeply with me. I've recently learned that knowing when to quit something that doesn't serve you isn't giving up, it's moving forward. I think one of the worst pieces of advice is to 'never quit' - knowing when to quit or pivot is a true marker of success.
