One question.
Real people.
No script.
Solicited Advice is an interview series built on the belief that humans are made for connection. We just have to ask the right questions. Find me on the yellow dot.
“What’s one of the hardest things you’ve been through, and what advice can you give because of it?”
No script. No casting. No catch. Just real connection.
Why this matters to me
After 100 days in and out of hospitals (emergency brain surgery, kidney surgery, and a cancer diagnosis), I wanted to double down on human connection.
That experience reminded me of something: the stranger next to you has been through something too, and they’ve got advice worth hearing.
More in common
We’re bold with strangers online, but there’s something different about being real with each other in person. We may not agree on everything, but I believe there are at least twice as many things we do agree on.
Solicited Advice taps into that, one question at a time.
