7 days from now my cats and I will be on a plane to Newark. We are going to Marilyn’s to chill for a couple days before our trek to Stockholm on the following Monday (11/6). The truth is…this is the crunchy hard part of this experience for me. It’s where the number of things […]
Below is the goodbye letter I wrote the team at Providence Digital Innovation Group today. I’m sharing it here because I want the world (or at least my little audience) to know what they’ve meant to me. In the aftermath of Expedia, DIG did the healing work on my heart and confidence. If Klarna wasn’t […]
Yes, I am getting excited. But the truth is, while everyone else is adjusting to the idea of my moving to Stockholm, my closest family, a few friends, and I have been adjusting since about mid-August…and we knew it was on the table since late June.

It meant we had to be super diligent in how we thought about communication, scale, and the way the technology […]
I cannot delegate kindness. I will not abdicate compassion. I shall never abandon my responsibility to humanity. I look around the world and wonder why some people think that the above rules do no apply to them. I am stunned at the people who stand at the edges and behave as though the rest of […]
Lately I’ve been having a lot of conversations about my skills, talents, abilities, hopes, and goals. As a rule the thing that these conversations have in common is some indication of my value.

Every now and then I ask The Universe for exactly what I want. I light the candle. I close my eyes. I hope. I dream. I decide. This time as I set my intention, I know that I want one thing. What is that one thing you ask? I want to be seen. Because in […]
