She consulted with an expert in Deaf culture/sign language to make sure this is an ok use of a language, so as to avoid appropriating another culture.

If you have ideas about how to make this website useful for getting back in touch after a while of not responding, please let me know at masha@boldadulting.com [masha@boldadulting.com] * This is inspired by Reply All [https://gimletmedia.com/shows/reply-all] podcast’s Email Debt Forgiveness Day [https://emaildebtforgiveness.me/] * Note #2: In the episode, Masha mentions that referencing a website that normalizes the experience of taking a long time to respond to a message means that you can reply with 'no guilt'. To be clear, it's not that a late response/lack of a response is something that never does harm. It is sometimes appropriate to apologize for harm that may have been caused by email etiquette issues. Certainly, if not responding means that another person missed a deadline or that you didn't follow through on a commitment, it is best to take responsibility. However, too often, people feel guilt even if a) it hasn't actually been a long time, b) there was no real negative consequence, and/or c) your circumstances mean that it is understandable that some things would have fallen through the cracks. Even if you feel bad, the most important thing is to get back in touch rather than never reach out again because of your bad feels. * Tip: To feel better, play music. If you aren’t in a situation where you can play music, podcaster and Maximum Fun [http://maximumfun.org] founder Jesse Thorn [https://www.maximumfun.org/jessethorn] shares that he “whips out a power jam with his mind” (think of music in your head) * Confidence Cat Zine [http://www.boldadulting.com/free] - coloring worksheets for confidence, career success, and problem-solving * Everything Is Awful and I’m Not Ok [http://iamarockstar.me/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/selfcare_printable.pdf]: Questions to ask before giving up Courage the Confidence reminds us to sleep: ———————————————————————— Discuss this episode or learn about hiring Masha for workshop (about making progress on goals that matter to you using antiperfectionism and authenticity) at BoldAdulting.com [http://www.boldadulting.com/]!
