"Meeting someone new can be scary. We often rely on established social cues to communicate with those around us, and we tend to build our most intimate relationships within familiar environments — school, extracurricular activities, or a place of worship. But social cues can’t cover everything."
If we’ve learned anything, it’s that not all trails are the same — and neither are the shoes. Our editors love REI Co-op for trail-running shoes that make it easy to say yes to a new route, a little more mileage, and that trail we hadn’t planned on taking.
Our editor recently made these leeks and she is eating them for every meal — breakfast, lunch, and dinner with an egg on top, or with crackers as a snack.
🤝 Becoming a confident communicator: This conversation is reshaping the way we think about human interactions
💼 For job seekers: Brightland, one of our favorite olive oil companies, is seeking a remote Brand Designer.
📝 A good question: When was the last time you met someone new? Was it as scary as you imagined, or are you grateful for the interaction?
Our next virtual meet-up is on Wednesday, September 23rd at 10 a.m. PT — We’ll be chatting with our editor Kate, whose article about doing a low-spend month inspired many rich reader conversations we can’t wait to dive into. Join us for a guided meditation and community discussion, plus a financial roundtable where we share our tips on making the most of our budgets. We can’t wait to see you!

A reader comment we love:
"I love Regina’s articles. And good on you The Good Trade, for offering the voices of women of a range of ages! There’s so much we can learn from one another, younger and older — I could spend days here! I’m just a tad younger than Regina and really appreciate her perspective, and loved this article."
