Welcome to Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore.

I was having dinner with a friend in LA, this was years ago now, and she asked me something

which I thought was really interesting. She said, you know, Susie I've observed you and you

approach and or talk to anyone, like it's so easy for you like you're not

nervous you feel comfortable around people and it just seems to happen so

organically and it's as if it's really simple. And I said, you know, like to be clear, because I find

this really interesting, I'm like, do you mean that other people don't seem to intimidate me or maybe it's possible for other

people to make us nervous and and perhaps it doesn't appear as if I'm that way is that

it and she said you know essentially And she said, you know, essentially, yeah,

she's like, you know, I wouldn't just speak to that woman or that guy,

like if I didn't know them and I've said you do it so many times.

And like, you know, essentially she was asking why like why and how it's possible and it's

not because I have any superpowers obviously I'm a human being we are all equal

here right which is precisely why other people don't really make me

nervous and look sure if there's someone who I love and admire who's maybe work I follow if I meet them.

I have this like excited energy that could be described as I guess some nerves,

but it would never prevent me, truly, would never prevent me from striking up a conversation,

saying hello, and making a connection

if that's what I really want.

And so as we were eating our pasta,

I was thinking about it more and more

because it hadn't been something that I'd consciously considered before.
