The way of the bootcamp
Are you in charge of your work or some shrinking violet? Meaning are you walking into your office with Robert de Niro confidence or are you a lamb asking for permission to breathe? Because if you are (a shrinking violet, a lamb, etc.), it’s alright. We’ve all been...
Curving back onto my nature, I create again and again
I started this blankly staring into the computer screen, determined not to budge until something came out of it. And frankly, when I started out on my own, four years ago, I had no idea where I was going. I’d love to make up a story about how I always knew I’d be a...
Say what you do in one line
I dare you. That’s your UVP. I call it your DNA. Because it replicates again and again and becomes your work. (Turn it on its head for clients, and it becomes a tagline.) It’s the hardest thing. I did a short documentary once, about my aikido friends. Do you know what...

When I don’t write, I love to read or listen to some of these amazing creators:

Here’s the thing with Alec Baldwin
A smart hangout with brainy creatives. (Plus he’s how I discovered Krista.)
A podcast on excellence and the habits that take you there. And the unsung revolutionary behind my new morning routine.
Crisp videos on filmmaking and culture. Am a Patron. Je like.

The Alpha and Omega. A cool way to get up to date with Aristoteles without reading 47 volumes.
Because I go gaga over creams, and blush, and lipstick.
