I sat down with , who writes the newsletter Body Type, for a conversation that turned into something I didn’t quite expect — and I think that’s exactly why it’s worth your time. Here’s the setup: I’d done a Substack Signal Scan for Mikala a few months back, right as she was heads-down finishing her book manuscript (The Forever Project, coming fall 2026). She hadn’t had time to really dig into the report, so we decided to talk through what the data had showed her in a live stream conversation.
