Alyssa--Thanks for sharing this. I think what's really observant is the title: "the joys and terror of being seen." I know may people who have put off doing work because of the potential terror (which rightfully so, can be absolutely scary and debilitating). But the wonderful thing about time is that it shows certain things that are constant: that when light and darkness meets---light always wins. :)

Aww I love that! I agree that light always wins when you're being your most vulnerable, authentic self. Thanks for commenting :)

I love this so much, and can absolutely relate! So helpful to read as I'm a few weeks out from launching the podcast and riding a similar roller coaster. Excited to read the book!

Launching a podcast has its own joy & terror since it opens a whole other can of worms: do I sound okay? Am I asking the right questions, and being an engaging host? Are people tuning in and staying for the whole episode? Major props for all the hard work that goes into that! I can't wait for our convo :)

Asking to be seen and heard is definitely a practice, and I'm proud of your vulnerability in sharing your journey with us. (And it is a darn tragedy you haven't featured Aaron Tveit on Thirsty Thursday.)
