About this episode
"I think being sensitive can be a strength in many ways. It's OK to be sensitive. It's OK to be emotional. It's OK to have feelings. It's OK to care."
Welcome to Ask Ali, a twice-a-month series where I answer all of your questions. This time around, we've got listener questions about Center Stage (best movie ever), my ideal desserts, recent impulse purchases, finding a running coach, dealing with difficult people, and more. Thanks to everyone who called in for this one. Enjoy!
