👩‍👧 "We tie a lot of morality to these ideals about parenting — who is a 'good parent,' a 'worthy parent,' is deeply wrapped up in how we see ourselves & our value," says @CaitlynMCollins (@WUSTL) on child-focused #parenting. @jaypugz, @BusinessInsider: buff.ly/4drpCiy

I’m writing about the resurgence of slurs (e.g. r-word) among liberal circles. If you identify as liberal/progressive and have 1. heard these used among friends or 2. felt more comfortable using them yourself, I’d love to speak to you. You can DM or reach me via my email (in bio)

Density Inform Laws: "When you think about the fact that these 39 state laws were fought for by sick women, it is quite something that these women and their families have paid the price for this," @JoAnnPushkin. Great article! @jaypugz @BusinessInsider: businessinsider.com/woman-cancer-m…

It takes one person to start a company, but it takes a village to keep it alive and growing. @syedahmedz and I spoke to @jaypugz at @BusinessInsider about the highs and lows of building. It's been a roller coaster of emotions, and I've had peaks of triumph and lows of failure and loss. Through it all, I've learned to recognize that I'm only human, and doing the "inner work" is just as important as the strategy and tactics of building @taradotai. ------- Article excerpt: After moving to San Francisco from Dubai, Ahmed had booked a few sessions with a therapist on his own. "We really had to get up to speed very, very quickly," Masood said, likening the early days of their new startup to a "marathon" and "rollercoaster." While she thought it was cool that her husband went to therapy, Masood was "vehemently opposed" to going herself. That shifted when she attended Leaders in Tech (LIT), a four-day, invite-only retreat for tech founders in California. It was the brainchild of professor, author, and executive coach Carole Robin, who taught a famous Stanford course on interpersonal dynamics called "Touchy-Feely." The retreat, Masood told BI, was all about being vulnerable about the challenges of being tech founders in the past few years: dealing with the pandemic, fluctuating valuations, and mass layoffs.

I was laid off yesterday after 7 incredible years at Business Insider (or 8 years if you count my time at BI’s London office). I don’t know what comes next. But I see this as an opportunity to take a breath, think, and learn what else is out there. I’m excited to find out.

Leah was one of the best bosses I've ever had. Razor-sharp, unflinchingly honest, passionate about her work, and truly invested in my growth here. What a devastating loss for us — and a huge gain for whoever is lucky enough to snatch her up!

i have no words, just immeasurable grief and respect for all my colleagues laid off today, especially those on my own team. i love this job and i want to believe in the future of media but it's so hard on days like this

After almost 9 years at Business Insider, I was laid off today. I loved every minute working with and learning from so many helpful, intelligent, talented, and wonderful colleagues! It was an honor to help build BI into what it is today. Eager to see what's next 😊
