I really appreciate that I've built up enough trust with people who have been listening to the podcast for a long time. Sometimes it hasn't happened much but occasionally someone reach out and say that my language that I might have used on an episode isn't aligning with my values That's so nice to have been in community. Hopefully we're going to continue to be learning and shaping our values, wanting those values to align with our behaviors and how we go about in this world.
