    I find that in my work role, I'm in a continuous state of leaning forward. The only way that I don't fall on my face is by continuously adjusting and readjusting and compensating. This what leadership feels like to me. It's not a bad thing, but if I stay still, I will faceplant.

    I think my main tip for writing educational comics is to first explain the concept out loud to a real person a few times and make sure you can actually explain it in a way they understand in 5 minutes

    Just taking a moment to reflect on the past few weeks of coaching calls, in which my clients are doing phenomenal, challenging (goopy!) work. It feels like such an honor to support them. My clients are always great, but it's been especially over-the-top *incredible* recently.

    Hey, fellow north-folks: I don't mean to get in your business but it's October. If you use a light box to get through winter, you could start using it today instead of hauling it out of the attic in two weeks when you're already feeling miserable. Good luck. You've got this.♥️

    Keep seeing phrases like “diverse-owned” or “diverse-managed” and I wonder why these are gaining in popularity and what we are really trying to say here
