One day last week, I promised myself that at the end of a very long workday, I would roll out my yoga mat and practice online with one of my favorite teachers from afar. The class started at 6pm. At 6:12pm, I was still writing emails. Did I mention the thing about the workday? Yeah, a doozy. I […]
I read an article last week that took about 5 minutes to zip through. A week later, I’m thinking about those 5 minutes. Also, in my typical style, I’ve told everyone I know – including you – about it.
I’ve been having a lot of conversations lately. They’re on Zoom of course, because where else do people talk? I’ve forgotten any other way.
