There is a close link between the way we see the world, the language we use to speak about it and the people with whom we resonate on the basis of our use of language.  In this episode, inspired by the 2016 science fiction film Arrival directed by Denis Villeneuve, which was, in turn, based on the short story, "Story of Your Life" by Ted Chiang, I talk about my fascination with the power of language to influence life perspectives and gift new insight.  In Chiang's story, a linguist learns an alien language and [SPOILER ALERT] acquires the ability to travel through time... Touching on my own terrestrial experiences of language  as a  "portal", I explain why I think it's so important to be authentic about what we choose to say and not say.
