This article is awesome! As someone who is oftenfrightened of trying new things pushing myslef out of that comfort zone can be so challenging. I love that you made it about little thing. Small goals and accomplishments we can tackle one at a time. I've always been a crazy picky eater but my boyfriend and brother are helping me branch out. Last February I finally got my septum pierced after hemming and hawing for 7 years. It took my bestfriend forcing my and an hour meltdown but I finally did it and I'm in love with it! This is a great mentality to take into your daily life! Wonderful job!!
Explaining your topic through a story was well done and helped me really connect with what was being said. I'm always wanting to try new things, but am often too scared to do it. Reading your newsletter reinvigorated me to go out and try something new. Your tone was spot on throughout, and I felt like I understood you more as a person as I read. That is a sign of quality writing.
Your style of writing, and the aesthetic of your article are so professional it feels like you've been writing on Substack for years. I appreciated your honest approach to trying new things, and your realistic story about getting overwhelmed at the food bank. Trying new things isn't always pretty and perfect and Pinterest-ready.
Starting this with a story immediately had me hooked! I think the way you explain the story of Jack and your father was super immersive and did a great job at being entertaining!! This literally motivated me to do something I never have before (maybe I'll learn a new language again, who knows, not me, but I am Inspired). I think this is an amazing idea for a Substack and can't wait to read more! P.S. I hear waxing your nose hairs is really damaging to your nostril region, maybe start with a small trim first :D
Great story! Sounds like it was a great experience. I liked the idea of “experience the euphoria of new things.” It's a great concept. The Lu Ann Cahn video was funny and enlightening. Good luck with future stories and your list.
This was really fun to read! I like how you tell this like a story and continue to use Jack throughout your article. I love that you included your own list of things you have never done before. It made me start to think about the different things I haven't done. I thought your article was compelling and very fluid.

Atlanta- haha! There's no way I would ever actually wax my nose hairs haha. The very idea of it...
