These days, you can find me in two places:
I’m writing about DFW-are restaurants for The Infatuation.
And I’m on Substack (like everyone else you know). My friend Molly and I are editors of The Learning Curve, a bi-weekly, Wednesday-morning newsletter featuring women’s voices and stories.
Our stories are important.
This is a place to share our understandings, joys, and learnings through story.
We understand, as women, that strength is in knowing not only ourselves but also our community. On our journeys, while riding our own learning curves, be them steep or gentle, we come to understand that through sharing our honest truth, comes beauty.
Each letter will differ, but our stories will be similar.
Here we share about womanhood, curiosities, passions, and awareness, among other themes. Each of these letters contributes to a larger conversation. This is a place of mindful consumption and intellectual stimulation; we hope, in our own ways, that by reading about others’ journeys, we may feel empowered toward action in our own.
The Learning Curve letters span a variety of tales—some of heartbreak and pain, some of the art that we can’t shake, and others about truths we uncovered in others. We will also share our very favorite things that get us through each day. The little joys in life that are actually quite great.
We’d love for you to join us. Subscribe to get full access to the newsletter and Substack and you’ll never miss an update.
