Short and sweet, but packed with great content. Maybe because I’m a millennial too, but I really enjoyed this month’s newsletter. Gotta go listen to that song now…

Hi Dann, I've stumbled across your article today where you share your thoughts on starting a personal newsletter. I love the idea of creating a more meaningful connection with people we know but dont nurture those connections. I'm an introvert as you, once a month I could even host a party at home with 8-10 people, then I need to recover for weeks. :)

Being alone is time well spent.

Still, the feeling is getting stronger, to express myself to people who are somewhat part of my social circle.

So thank you for your words and thoughts, I'm happy I came across.

Thanks for your comment! I feel like human connection is important, especially as we get older, but *what* that connection looks like can vary widely person-to-person. Some people have that extrovert energy and need to be very active and in-person. Other people have that introvert energy, and need to find ways to maintain connection while also being true to themselves. You should definitely start your own newsletter if that speaks to you! For me, each one is a labor of love that I'm always happy that I did.

You gave me that encouragement that I needed! Thank you!

I'm setting up my account here, as we "speak" :)

In a few days I'm going live with my monthly NL too.

Loved the newsletter Dan. If you want to get more in depth into Kendrick’s songs there is a podcast called Dissect and the host Cole does a deep dive lyric by lyric of Kendrick’s “euphoria” definitely worth a listen.
