Bonus: The internet, deep listening, socials is fun again (?) & developing a point of view
Ciao!
As you’re listening to this, I am on the four-hour bus journey to my mother’s village in Greece - a gorgeous little seaside town in the Peloponnese. The idealist in me wanted all my work, deadlines and letters complete before I was off. But London’s heatwave had other plans…
Instead of leaving you high and dry this week, I’ve decided to release part 2 of my bonus audio letter for full Office Members for you all. As you’ll soon tell, these bonus letters for paid subscribers are more off the cuff than usual, so hopefully, you enjoy the ride! If you do, you can listen to part 1 here (https://open.substack.com/pub/rachaelakhidenor/p/bonus-spontaneity-midweek-fun-navigating?r=42zlol&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true).
In this letter, we dive straight back into the sweltering heatwave of London. I’m back on the mic, post-therapy, answering two curious questions on how to stay across culture without being chronically online & how to develop a point of view.
I had answered a third question on developing taste, but upon editing, it’s clear that the heat had turned my brain into mush and my answer was unpublishable. So I’ll answer that in my next ask rach audio letter coming out in a few weeks!
As always, DM (https://www.instagram.com/rachakhidenor) me with your thoughts, feelings, feedback, ideas. I love hearing from you.
With gratitude,
Rach x
