Sometimes I need to talk things out, be imperfect, and talk honestly about the reality of life. Join me as I talk about what’s going on and figure things out (or not) in real time. There’s no obligation for this to be anything other than “Hey, it’s Monday and my kids are shouting in the background and they want to know, what happens when we die? Okay, the end.” Let’s talk.

On Wednesday this past week, my husband and I started feeling sick. The boys were both snotty, and we’d been watching the news—way too much, but you know. It’s hard to peel your eyes away. On Thursday we decided to keep everyone home, out of the abundance of caution. Here’s everything we are doing to prepare for coronavirus.

Let’s Talk 02: Quarantined in NYC

As Seth Godin would say, “This might not work.” I can make zero promises about whether this podcast will last, if it will work, and whether or not I’ll wake my children up while trying to record. I’m currently making this from a corner of my apartment while in quarantine with two children and a husband in New York City. Here’s a look at what life looks like right now.

Let’s Talk 01: Hey Friends

I have a microphone, a computer, and an urge to talk to all of you. If you hear small children in the background, it’s because… there are small children in the background. But first, let me introduce you to a new podcast that I’m working on.

Why I Started A Podcast

by | Oct 19, 2017 | , ,

Almost two years ago, the idea for Startup Pregnant came to me. But when the idea first arrived, it was to be a book of my own experience. A story of what it was like to work in the tech startup scene in Manhattan while navigating my pregnancy. Over time, however, the idea morphed from a book (still in progress) to grow in shape and size. I started interviewing women and hearing incredible stories. And I knew these interviews need to be conversations that people could listen to. So I ended up starting a podcast. Here’s the backstory, and a sneak peek into where we’re headed.

Let’s Talk 13: If More Discipline Isn’t Working

Does self-discipline work? Sometimes yes, but lately for me, and especially during the pandemic, it’s not cutting it. Hustle culture, burnout, and heaping more “discipline” on top of me like an overactive bootcamp coach isn’t getting me to do any of the things I want to do. Here’s what’s working for me instead.

Who Is Imagining The Future?

One of the questions we’re all asking about—begging for, really—is what the future might look like. Where are we going, and what does the next year look like? I find myself searching for writers who have thought about this—people who have imagined it, who are dreaming about it, or have studied it. It turns out, there are definitely a few people who have written things like this, from winding forays into five-year futures, to epidemiologists and pandemic researchers thinking through so many of the layered consequences of viral diseases. Here are the people talking about what the future looks like, and a few ways to begin thinking about what’s next.

Let’s Talk 10: Saying Good Morning

Lately the strangest thing has been happening: I’m finding myself drawn towards social media, and wanting to connect more. So every morning, I’ve been sharing a small snippet of my morning routine on my Facebook page, and it’s turned into my virtual coffee shop. Listen in for how it all works, and why it’s helping me so much right now.
