After I attended an author's panel last year I introduced myself to Laura Tremaine. It was a super nerdy moment for me because I love her books and podcasts. I love her storytelling. 

I am super intrigued by her. Our backgrounds are very different—she grew up in very conservative Oklahoma, and I grew up in the liberal San Francisco Bay Area. But she moved to Los Angeles in her 20s and has talked about how that has impacted her.

Because I wanted to learn more about her, I asked her to be a guest on my podcast; she said yes! 

Then I made it weird. I didn’t reach out to schedule for almost a year. 🫣

Let this be a lesson to us all: people are lovely even when you leave them hanging for months.
