From Portland to Chicago: Jody's New Adventure

In this episode of Heavy Conversation, Jody shares some big news—he’s leaving Portland and moving to Chicago to start a new chapter of his life. We dive into the challenges of building meaningful friendships, what he’ll miss most about the city, and the excitement (and nerves) that come with a fresh start. Jody talks about his plans to be proactive in meeting people and exploring his new surroundings in Chicago. Plus, we reassure listeners that Heavy Conversation isn’t going anywhere—we’ll keep the conversations going remotely.

Beer:

We shared Killer Green (Fresh Hop IPA), by Double Mountain Brewery, Hood River
