Work for Reuters and Bloomberg taught me that professional news journalists should keep their opinions out of their stories (erosion of the division between news and opinion).
That requirement in my previous professional work and my at times debilitating perfectionism meant I neglected personal writing for a long time. The advice of friends and mentors has slowly given me the confidence to practice writing (=thinking!) more and sharing my ideas with audiences.
Won’t you write and tell me what you’re thinking about?
