I would love your thought on BF, right now it feels like people are either BF is a queen we must worship or BF should blink twice for help and honestly, I don't think either are cutting it. My guess is your thoughts would be more nuanced.

Yes to the Ballerina Farm piece! It's true that I'm reaching the end of my appetite for commentary on it, but I don't think the author of the original article or many of the commentators have adequately grappled with the Mormon context that saturates all of it.

We have been in Paris for the summer (arrived one month pre-Olympics) and it’s been an absolute delight!! Hasn’t felt crowded or overwhelming at all!

I would LOVE to hear what you have to say about Ballerina farms. I'll read anything you write about the LDS church, but also, the financial aspects of that family are so baffling too- have you heard/read about how she did a gofundme for her father's end of life costs and then the whole family did a huge Hawaii trip right after? And why was her billionaire heir husband missing the birth of a child because it was like, packing day for their hobby farm? Would love your take

Have really been enjoying your Olympics coverage on Instagram - thanks for sharing the BTS look at something so many of us are largely watching through official channels. Also, I remember you writing that the last time your whole family was together (over the holidays?) you were suffering from depression so I hope this visit has been filled with joy and connection (it sounds like it has!).

I’m uncomfortable with the ballerina farm article. But I also feel everyone should live as they see fit. I would love your take on this so yes, let us know. I also often wonder about you and your sister Jordan and even the others in the adult equation of your extended family. Where did the liberal come from?

Way back I was a medical sales rep and had to go to some training in SLC and CA. I remember a few of the Morman men. All great fellows with wives at home, everyone looked the same and were fashionably dressed. But my intuition was questioning it all. I had forgotten all this until seeing this article. But then I still think, let us all do our thing and be who we are…

There are quite a few diverse women I would love to chat with, ( on a sofa, in sweatpants) most well known but I would love to go deep. I’m a profound observer of life.
