Hello!
Super short and sweet, because who’s on vacation? We are! But not for much longer …
Actually—
we’re already working on notes to begin recording our upcoming season, so summer vacation is pretty much over! Look for new episodes to begin dropping July 15. As always, you’ll find our new episodes here, or wherever you listen to podcasts.
Everything that waits is also preparing itself to move.

Season 10 will focus on navigating change and transition, and in preparation we’ve been thinking a lot about the diversity of age and experience in this community. We’d love to know how the journey you’re on (or whatever words you might use to describe it) began. Was there a precipitating event? Was it a long slow build over time? Has it been a lifetime? We hope to share as many vocal snapshots of where you’ve been and where you are as we can get in our upcoming season. If you want to contribute, please send us a voicemail (recordings are 90 seconds) telling us a little about how it started and how it’s going. To record, you can click here.
Thanks to all of you who are still reaching out to let us know you’re enjoying (or enjoyed!) our book. It’s been a memorable summer for us. If you still want to get your copy signed, or just want to say hello, Cynthia will be at the Signature Books table at the Gather Conference at the Utah Valley Convention Center in Provo this Friday and Saturday, June 27-28.
Then Susan and Cynthia will be with Signature again at the Sunstone Symposium August 1-2 at the University of Utah in SLC.
While at Sunstone, we’re also participating in a panel discussion featuring the authors of 50 Years of Exponent II, Saturday morning, August 2, at 9:00 am in the Saltair room. We hope to see you there!
Meanwhile …
We have one Live Chat left for June, and it’s tomorrow on Substack!
