Stories, (Un)Marketing experiments, inspiring conversations and spiritual business
The Business Without Social Media Movement
Ideas come to me often, like magical seeds sprinkled onto the fertile soil of my mind. Many drift away. A few of those seeds POP and begin to grow, insistent and alive. One such seed landed last week. It crackled with life and I thought: Am I actually going to do...
The Sociopathic CEO Experiment
Yesterday in the IMPACT membership, we became Sociopathic CEOs. (Or Benevolent Dictators, if you prefer.) We sat with this delicious question inspired by A Smart Bear: If you could do anything your business – and didn’t care what anyone thought – what would you...

Dancing On the Edge of Now
I'm in the back of an Uber on my way to my first time back in the pole dance studio in six weeks. Six agonizing weeks! My driver is a boisterous man with beautifully articulated Portuguese that would be easy for me to understand…if my Portuguese was better. We have...
How to Change Your Relationship With Fear Without Pushing Through It
A lot of things scare me. (Sometimes.) Walking along cliffs and rooftops with a long drop below. Speaking Portuguese to a local and freezing up when I can’t understand the reply. Swimming in the wild, open ocean where my feet can’t touch the bottom. And then there are...
Let’s have a Wild Creation chat!
Tell me what lights you up, where you’re flummoxed, and how I can help. We’ll set off for a conversation that surprises and delights us both.
