David Chen’s wife IS so smart and so perceptive. Well said, David Cho.

I have a lot of similar anxieties as David Chen but I can’t afford therapy so I’d like to thank David Cho for these. 😝 Joking aside, I seriously do pick up tidbits that help combat my own self doubt and these always make me laugh, so thank you. 🙏

The word “transparency” has become over-used and cliched, but it’s so apt for the quality that comes across in these conversations. Having enjoyed your work for a long time, Dave, these “coaching sessions” about your process and your goals (and just about LIFE) are compelling, inspiring, and a lot of fun. I commend you for making these available to your subscribers, because there is a degree of vulnerability that you reveal here…and making artistic things (poems, plays, stories, podcasts, films) does require taking risks. I’m reminded of a quote from poet William Stafford: “I must be willingly fallible in order to deserve a place in the realm where miracles happen.” I appreciate the risk-taking here, and I always enjoy your writing, talking, and making things. Thank you.

I’m so glad someone else besides ME recognizes this!!
