I wrote this Friday: I have Hand Foot and Mouth Disease (which is a virus not a disease). Most adults do not get this. Most daycare children do. Sanne and I flip-flopped that: I got it, she did not. It feels like you are walking on hot glass, you can barely drink and certainly not…

the mini pod ep in which i talk to myself
Does it count as Feel Good Friday if I recorded it on Friday and talked exactly zero minutes about how grateful I am because while I am indeed grateful for some stuff, shit’s been crazy over here? I am your celebrity and my celebrity because I am funny and have a unique perspective and way…
Meet my celebrity: Pedro! [minipod ep drop]
Pedro is one of my og Austin football friends, and I love this episode where we bop all around topics and get deep too. Drop in!
Funny | 061226
It’s a bold move to title a post Funny. I’m in a funny mood. I’m amped—it feels like there’s more motion and activity in my job search/work search than ever. It feels like there’s motion in podcasting and h.e.n.r.y. and emceeing and all sorts of Brand Lyssa things (barf). I’m happy—I got to attend the…
Some recs and Sanne squats | Feel Good Friday 060526
Sanne is standing and bobbing and it is the cutest thing in the whole world. When she gets scared or tired, she squats down sooooo slowly pilates instructors everywhere are jealous, and it’s hilarious. She’s cruising and loves laps around our (leather pouf) coffee table. She is the most wonderful baby in the whole world…
Making Things | Checklist 105
Lalalala let’s dive in. It’s Monday, it’s hot, I’m not spending money, I don’t like window shopping. If I’m shopping, I’m buying*. WERK I’m not a Martha Stewart stan by any stretch, but I’m not not a fan. I love the idea of her latest company, Hint, an AI-powered home maintenance predictor (with the obvious…
Good Happy Energy | Feel Good Friday 042426
A great conversation: posted it on LinkedIn. It happened on Friday, and I was stoked. Posting though felt risky. Did it anyway. A week later, can confirm it wasn’t. Energy, y’all. Good energy begets good energy. Vibez. Frequency. Manifestation. Belief. Whatever we’re calling it, we, I, need more of the good stuff: the faith, the…
Happy Hour | Feel Good Friday 041026
I mean the spread was really GOOD. I made two whipped cheeses (brie and feta) from this book: I’ll Bring the Apps, and did a signature blackberry bramble cocktail alongside wine, beer, and hopwater. Friends, networking people, and new people all came. It was a perfect mix, and the right number of people, and I…
Has LinkedIn become my new blog? | Feel Good Friday 032726
I don’t feel good this freakin’ Friday. I am grateful for a lot of things but in the season I am in right now, when I wrote “good” in that headline I had a visceral reaction, a shuddering like “what a lie.” Here is what I just cannot conjure up any gratitude for: a seemingly…
Hey Peggy | Feel Good Friday 031326
HeyPeggy.ai launched today!! She’s the first in what will be a suite of small business marketing agents. We’ve been crunch-timing her all week and it’s super fun to be building. I can’t wait to keep talking about her while bopping around to all the free events in the city. I started my SXSW journey, here’s…
