Reset Button: Recent Episodes
Dylan Tweney
Mindfulness, creativity, technology, and more with writer and Silicon Valley communicator Dylan Tweney
When I first started to swim in the ocean, it was in a shallow, protected cove halfway up the southern reach of San Francisco Bay. Still, when I first contemplated getting into that water, it seemed as wild and daunting as the English Channel.
Welcome to a new season of the Reset Button. Over the next few months, I'll be sharing the story of how I became an open-water swimmer and the effect it’s had on my life over the past decade. There will be some stories about actual swims, some of the lore and science of the ocean, and some meditations on swimming. Along the way, I will share some secrets of storytelling, writing, and journalism.
