Welcome to Our New Blog Series: Dear Me: A Letter to My Younger Self 

We’re all getting older and wiser, right? Or maybe we’re not wise so much as wised-up, able to recognize what wasn’t obvious to us when we were in our teens or in our 20s or 30s. Would you, like Nora Ephron, advise young women to “go, right this minute, put on a bikini, and don’t take it off until you’re 34”? Follow our contributors as they explore what they wished they’d known sooner in letters to their younger selves.
