7 December 2017: "That's right: I said, 'We need to be whales.'" --Julia, one of my former students, reminiscing with Katie, another former student, about how she used to get them to feel confident in stressful situations.
Apparently, when Katie would get nervous, she would shake a bit and Julia called her a Pekingese. Instead, she said, be like a whale--just float and don't be afraid of anything.
I caught up with these two delightful young women at a dinner at another former student's house. Wonderful company, wonderful conversation. And I especially loved hearing about how they playfully supported each other through rough patches.
