“My ultimate joy comes from seeing others happy. It’s a high like no other.”
It started with a deck
I made just for me.
I grew up in a house with hardly any deep or open conversations. It was truly only surface-level stuff. Emotions simply weren’t spoken about, and when I tried to express myself, I was told I was “being overly emotional.” So I kept everything inside.
I had to reteach myself that it’s not a bad thing to have feelings, and that it takes massive courage to be vulnerable. Along the way, I made a deck of questions just for myself, because I craved more depth in my life. Turning it into a game took the pressure off having to start those conversations all on my own.
Then more and more friends wanted a deck, too. From Milford, Massachusetts to New York City, Barcelona, Israel and now California, I’m still blown away by the connections these questions create between people. Using them changed my life profoundly, and made me confident I can have an interesting conversation with almost anyone.
“My mission now is to help others fall in love with vulnerability, just as I have.”
