  1. Tribute to a Wandering Path

    24 MAY

    Tribute to a Wandering Path

    When it comes to navigating the demands of work and our personal lives, an abundance of wisdom lies in saying no. Give yourself permission to say no; have the courage to say no; no is a complete sentence. The adages go on, but what happens when we open ourselves to new things (when appropriate) by saying yes? In this episode, I read aloud a blog post from 2023 in which I reflect on the wandering path that led me to creating Dearist. You'll hear about a time circa 2015-2017 when I said yes to a series of opportunities, sometimes silly, that took me out from behind my desk and into the streets of New York City.

  2. A "New" Way to Communicate

    24 ABR

    A "New" Way to Communicate

    Did you learn cursive in elementary school? What grade were you in when you began to type? Chances are, you'd be surprised by the expectations for lesson plans these days. In our first episode, we’re taking a pulse on the state of writing in elementary classrooms today. We’ll speak with a group of 2nd and 3rd grade teachers, based in Southern California, to learn about the shifts they've seen in how school work is done and hear why they jumped on an opportunity to start a pen pal letter writing program. We’ll also hear from a pair of students who became pen pals to get their take on this “new” way of communicating. They’ll even let us in on the letters they wrote to each other. To learn more about how you can support letter writing in classrooms, please visit hellodearist.com.
