My paper 'The Value of Risk in Transformative Experience' is now out in Episteme!! I've presented this paper a lot, and it enabled me to have a lot of awesome conversations with people I admire. Proud of this one. Check it out here: cambridge.org/core/journals/…

I had an awful dream on Wednesday night that Episteme sent me major revisions (again) and then rejected my paper as soon as I responded to them. Fortunately, my dreams didn't come true and my paper was accepted yesterday!!
