Let’s Hang Out Tomorrow! (opens the original)
Read excerpt
My TEDx just crossed 59K views.Here's what I want to say about that: Okay well A) EEEEEEEK!!!!And B) I'm a pragmatist through and through. If you've seen the talk I hope it shifted something in you, an inner wiggle of up to something.

Read excerpt
One moment we’re innocently prepping a talk or a presentation or a video. We’re thinking about what we want to get across, how much we want to show up and shine.And suddenly what’s echoing in our head? “I just wanna nail it!” “Crush it.”“Kill it.”“Command the room.”“Own the stage.”Here we are yearning for matriarchy now — ehem, NOT JUST ME, CORRECT? — what with the heist of democracy, the Epstein revelations, the tangle of big tech traumatizing our kids on the internet, and war, so muc
