“I don’t hold typical ideas on self-improvement. If you think I am wrong about something, or you think I could be doing more good with my life than my current life-trajectory, I don’t just want you to be brutally honest with me, I need you to be. Please reach out with any concerns, criticisms or advice (you can do so anonymously here).”
