What a wealth is held in your archives, Tara! I had been printing some of your essays to keep in a reference binder in my kitchen (all the more as we aim to move away from being a device-saturated home), and this reminds me to return to that project. Your sharing of wisdom gleaned through life experience and much consideration makes you a most treasured mentor to me.

Oh, printing these is such a wonderful idea! Gotta build that home library, afterall. ☺️ I wish Substack had a better way to organize posts. So appreciate you doing this for us, Tara.

I'm 16 weeks pregnant and read that baby is just now able to start hearing my voice and the outside world. I've been trying to collect things - podcasts and what not - to listen to while I'm in the kitchen or knitting or whatever that are uplifting, educational, and inspirational. For my spirit and for baby's. None of that true crime or anything doomsday-esque. Anyway - your content is always at the top of my list, Tara. There's so much wisdom and love in what you share. My hope is that I can lean on creators like you to help teach and shape my children. Just by listening, relistening, and reading your content myself. I think they'll glean a lot by passive diffusion even (and maybe especially) in the early years.

Plus it's one way to save both myself and them from me lecturing all day. 😜

This work that you're putting out there makes a difference in the lives of real people, Tara. Thank you. 💚💚💚
