From my Substack: Liminade. This edition is a meditation on the liminal theme of: waiting.

How do you imagine your best life? Fake it til you make it, goes the classic aphorism — the idea that “acting as if” you are the person you want to be can help make it be so, make it be true.

These first days and weeks are about getting my sea legs as a nomad —acclimating, soaking up environments and beauty, and getting some holiday rest after a busy few transitional months moving and such prior to leaving for the trip.

Macro and micro reflections on how powerful the forces of "home" are on human beings — what and where we call home, where we find home, and the homes that we carry in our hearts.

How often do we tell and retell stories of our lives — in the same ways, again and again?

Really good ways to go about it — and some really wrong ways to do it.

Reinventing yourself? Pivoting? Finding your footing in your career? Maybe these principles will resonate with you, too — or inspire you to craft your own.

Let’s turn a business document into a design tool! Use it in your own toolkit — or to help build a design-as-partner culture at your company.

Of design jobs being sales jobs and leading with curiosity.

Why did you start doing what you’re doing? Is that still true?

It’s now 3 years after the sabbatical and re-entry to workforce, and it continues to be vocationally the best thing I’ve ever done.

This is one of the best things I’ve ever done in life, spiritually and professionally.

So how do we know what is… “cool” or “creepy”, “seamless”, “intuitive”… or even “magical”?

Last summer I did one of the scariest things I’ve ever done: I quit my job to restore my health, live my dreams, and find my way to my next professional life.
