So thereโs this book I really like called โsorry Iโm late, I didnโt want to comeโ by Jessica Pan. She wrote that when she initiated greetings, 100% of the people responded but when she didnโt, most people just kept to themselves. For context, I think she was in London and this was part of an experiment. I wonder what results youโd get if you said hello to people (outside of LA). Iโm curious about this myself!

Loooove this vibe, I often *think* my complements but don't verbalise them in case I scare/embarrass/annoy the person I want to give them to. But I am not responsible for how someone reacts to what I do - I can only serve myself and my truths. I want to take up some of your initiative here and try it out in this coming week!! โค๏ธโจ๐๐ป

I am so behind in my newsletter reading, but Iโm so glad I caught this post! It made my heart swell with joy just reading it as I sit in my home in LA. โค๏ธ
And the next time youโre in town, letโs grab a coffee!
LA must really give you something incredible. Even your newsletter feels different this week. ๐

Loved reading this...so much! The part about the woman who you thought was thinking you were 'too much' was particularly poignant!
What a great time you had in LA. Keep that close.
