Such a powerful story, Lyle. And Sharron is right -- you're an inspiration to me as a parent. Thank you for the shout out too!

No problem, Russell! Thanks for sharing so vulnerably. I’ll ping you about doing a coaching session. At the very least, we should catch up soon!

I enjoy reading your updates, Lyle. They remind me very much of the era of personal blogging. They also remind me that personal stories are powerful and offer a way to connect with people on a deeper level. It’s an encouragement to perhaps start sharing some less edited pieces from my own life, too.

Glad I started reading your newsletter. 🙂

Thanks so much, Sam! Like I said on our call yesterday, I miss the old blogging days. I wish I was a more active writer back then. It’s good to see Substack kind of bringing those vibes back.

I agree. I wish I hadn't been in my moody teenager/early 20s phase in those days, lol. I spewed way too much out into the LiveJournal-verse. And wrote far too much fanfiction. 😅
