Hey there! It's time for Thanksgiving! I'm thankful for a lot. Harry Styles. Tree. A warm coat . Wonderful clients. Fantastic team members. Loving family. Books. Books. Books. Chocolate peanut butter ice cream. I mean really, I could go on forever. I'm a lucky …
Who’s Your Caddy?
"When your golfer asks if he should use a 3 iron or a 4 iron, you'd better have the right answer." You'd really only enjoy the movie, "Loopers," about the history of golf and golf caddies if you have a) played golf, b) are into sports documentaries, or c) like to go deep on …
Something Smells
Mold was the first thing that came to mind. My living room smelled like a wet towel left on the bathroom floor. So I started to determine the cause of the smell and what to do about it. "This is not normal," I thought. I did one test and the results came back within acceptable …
Earworm Inside
You could feel the collective intake of breath as the music swelled. From the very back of the Disneyland Hyperion theater to the front row, the audience prepared to belt out the words along with the cast. Let it gooooooooooooo! Let it gooooooooooooooo... Obviously the song …

If soccer practice is Saturday where will you buy fish food on Monday? When you were a kid, did you ever do those logic puzzles? There would be a whole grid with boxes and you had to decide which task happened when and by whom with what supplies or some variation. Then there were the math …

I could not breathe the entire time I was watching the movie. I was in the Imax theater where my friends' parents and I watched Dunkirk (because Harry Styles was in the movie). Apparently Imax worthy movies require viewers to bring extra oxygen. I mean, there we were, clinging to …
Why Does This Always Happen?
I have my best business thoughts while drying my hair in the morning. Obviously I don't plan that. Who wants to think about email segments or product descriptions at 7:30 in the morning before breakfast? Not me. It happens all. the. time. though. Recently I found out why. …
Back That Thing Up
I looked at my to-do list and immediately had a panic attack. No really. I did. Just ask Steph. Then I got on the phone. Luckily I was home and not sitting across from a client thinking I had the flu. (I didn't and I don't think she knew that while I was smiling, I was internally freaking …
