Joel
Dear Joel,
This isn’t just any old thing reconceived. This is You reconceived. Because you’re graduating.
It’s been a hot minute since we’ve touched this podcast. I hope it’s not costing you too much to host…I recorded this with my laptop microphone (yikes!) but I hope it gets the point across. Graduation may be exciting or terrifying, a big change or a small one, but it is a change, and I wanted to give one small piece of encouragement.
Best,
Ben -
