020323: is losing your voice always a metaphor for … losing your voice? Did writing about being even a tiny bit intimidated bring this on? Did I silence MYSELF?

Feel Good Saturday Morning 012823
Day to day, it’s relatively easy to be an executive, at least a new one in the environment I am in. I am decisive and opinionated; my ideas about how we should be doing things are fresh and generally well-received, especially when I communicate them well (read: POWERPOINTS FOR DAYS). And still! I’m younger, more…
oh well it’s sunday again | Feel Good Friday 012023/12223
Bob, Zimbobwae, Byobi … the weird lil corgi army crawler guy continues to be simultaneously a complete and utter dickhead (to strangers, people walking by, and everyone who has to hear him on my conference calls) and a source of endless joy, love, and humor (especially at night, when it’s dark, and he can’t see…
2 0 2 3 : L O V E
The most important. More than water, food, shelter, we humans need love. AND I HAVE IT. And I want to keep it. And grow it. I want to love bigger and harder and more and more openly! Last year was incredibly BRIGHT. 2022 was challenging but somehow not, as it opened my heart to SO…
Bulldog Karen Bob | Feel Good Friday 121622
This week I have been called both a bulldog and a karen, with basically the same meaning but obviously very different connotations.

My family is so effing awesome. There are 21 of us, plus my Handsome Humanitarian Warrior’s 3, in Austin for this holiday and I couldn’t be happier. I am so grateful for my cousins. They are all incredible humans. It turns out I haven’t seen some of them in over three years and while we’ve…

why the duck | feel good Finally 101822
I left my beloved job at HGS, where I had the incredible fortune of working for the absolute best boss I’ve ever had and working with the most incredible team I’ve ever built. We made big impact: big strides forward in brand consistency and social media, launched an awesome podcast, packaged our first product, built…
