Loved this especially points #3 and 5!!! The profile makes Callard easy to dunk on, but (cold take incoming) I read Aspiration a few years ago and found it so genuinely amazing and encouraging in how it talked about the work of living, of articulating one's own desires and earnestly/clumsily moving towards them. It was a really useful read for me, and I basically hadn't read any philosophy before Aspiration.
So for that alone I am fascinated by Callard's work and how entangled it is with her life
