I created this account as a side project in early 2020 before the year devolved into chaos. Throughout the first half of the year, I've realized I/we need this channel more than ever to promote diveristy & inclusion, educate, listen, share successes, struggles, and tips. Welcome!

Next up @HofGAZ we have Middle Finger Mantras and Ryan Tomita discussing personal sovereignty and being the best version of themselves. #HofGAZ #yesphx

I can’t believe it’s the final @HofGAZ of 2023! Up first tonight is Outside Meditation who helps people connect with nature and destress. #yesphx #hofgaz

Don’t feel qualified? Nobody does. You can only be qualified to do that which you have already accomplished or trained for. Anything new is accomplished by unqualified people.

Just because improvements aren’t visible doesn’t mean they aren’t happening. You’re not going to see the number change each time you step on the scale. You’re not going to finish a chapter each time you sit down to write. Early wins come easy. Lasting wins require a lifestyle.

How to build a career in 7 steps: 1. Do great work. 2. Share it publicly. 3. Cold email people 2 steps ahead of you. 4. Talk about your work and trade ideas. 5. Host events and meet in-person. 6. Become friends. 7. Rise together.

@JoeNocera_PwC @NotreDame Go Irish! ☘️

You will forgive me while I post some personal news. On Thursday night my daughter was admitted to @NotreDame - we couldn't be more proud of her and are so excited for her to get the Notre Dame experience.

Balance rarely comes from increasing efficiency. It usually involves reducing responsibilities. The more priorities we have, the harder they are to juggle. It's better to do a few things well than be overwhelmed by many. A key to avoiding burnout is deciding what doesn't matter.
