By regularly making and breaking habits, life becomes more fulfilling and satisfying. I’m drafting a book called Omit to Commit, and in 2024, I’m posting research/your ideas/themes on…

Systems Review: Virtual Safe Space for Coffee Talks?
Virtual coffee talks are my jam: The shared space, often over caffeine and conversation, fosters connections. Something about the buzz of both the cup of joe and life talk just changes the dynamic. The convos often lead to bigger goals beyond catching up. Sometimes, they’re strategically just for that: Life-talking over coffee. While I (virtually)…

Systems Review: March 2024
How does a shared space become a home? Living with friends has been an incredible entry into Colorado, leading to mutual experiences and empathy. My roomies and I spend time together and apart. This week, we spring-cleaned. Amazingly, we all had time for a movie night, too, watching the sweeping, opera-satire-martial arts film Shadow. It’s…

Experiment: Express and Play
March brings month 3 of my foray into “experiment“, my word for 2024. Continuing with the theme of choice and acting on them (empowering confidence and fueling passion), I have 2 verbs today. February’s focus on “express” led to: Expressing my sunshiny self through wearing yellow every day Posting about it on my personal social…
Systems Review: February 2024
Most of life is grad school and work right now, so today’s monthly systems post is a simple, unordered list.

Experiment: Engage and Express
Welcome (back) to my word for the year posts! In case you missed last month’s post, “experiment” is my word for 2024. On the 10th of every month, I plan to set small challenges for myself. Focused on fun, feeling, and actually doing things, “experiment” merits play, trying, and failing. Previous words of the year…
Systems Review: January 2024
Where did January go? It’s been a whirlwind, going back to school for quarter 2 of grad school. I’m learning so much about what I want, now and in the future! Even this week involved 2 interviews, 1 tour of an archives, and even a handful of social activities. No drinking, no animals products this…
