I’m pretty much always “working on myself” but I love the way my dear/completely badass friend frames the quest in this article: Work on yourself now before it comes back to bite you in the ass. And then! Completely digging my Co-Star reading for yesterday: You are learning how to come to terms with your…
Long but clear articulation of why the term girlboss has always bothered me as a leader. Entertainment Obsessed with Fast & Furious currently. Dove deep this weekend on how to watch the Fast and Furious movies in order—did you know they are not actually numbered in chronological order?! wtf!—and am now currently seeking a binge…
I feel like I learn this lesson at least once a day: when I am confident in my decisions, my plans, my action, I am always right. The thing goes well, I make the right choice, good outcomes occur. But when I start to doubt myself, things go awry: people can’t agree on what we…
Celebrating my dad, the best dad, at Treaty Oak was a perfect Sunday! Sushi happy hour… Getting to know friends better. Letting people love me for who I am. For my dichotomies. As my champions. Embracing too much rejection. Playing Level 3 volleyball. Vanushing. Biking. Nali has sarcoma. It’s old lady cancer and there’s nothing…

Happy Father’s Day to the greatest dad of all time. Buy his latest book here. All of last weekend was great, from volleyball and yoga to south Austin bars to climbing and swimming at the Greenbelt to Austin Winery and family dinner, plus floating in my cowboy pool and reading in my hammock. It was…
Powerful article on self-silencing. I am so incredibly careful before I publish anything on this blog or social media, and while it’s good practice as a journalist, it’s frustrating as a citizen with an opinion. Food for thought—should I be more candid on this blog? Would it harm me professionally? This clip is incomprehensible… NO…
This is a ridiculous new post series of business advice I’m learning and relearning and relearning and relearning every day. I led a meeting today that I was very, very prepared for—great deck, great ideas, great contributions from my team. And it gave me this badass “don’t give a fuck” attitude about the team that…
So last night, stone cold sober, I shredded some cheese for my steak nachos and I remember thinking it wasn’t as much cheese as I thought it would be, but I cooked them, turned off the kitchen light, ate my nachos and watched my shows… This morning I walk into the kitchen following a TRAIL…
It was but a short week, yet this week has brought me so. many. many. opportunities to practice grace. Yes, you can laugh. But it has! Grace for others, for a situation, for a frustration point … all of which translate back to me, obviously. Grace to myself for how I’m handling something, what it’s…
