Lessons & Letters

Hey there! My name is Avery, and I am the host of Lessons & Letters. I am a firm believer that vulnerability is a gift. I side with positivity and believe that this world can benefit from any added optimism- big or small. And, it is never too late to hop on the personal growth train. Lastly, my life does not make sense without God in it- so we will be talking all things faith.

    28 - 10 things we WISH we knew in high school

    Today’s episode is inspired by a special event I attended at St. Andrew’s in Columbus—a beautiful, candlelit dinner for 8th graders and their parents, where I had the privilege of sharing a message of faith. Reflecting on that night, Tanner and I decided to each write down 5 things we wish we’d known in high school. So, in this episode, we’re bringing you our combined list of 10 life lessons, hoping that one or more might speak to you. Let’s dive in!
