Whatup Reader!

We blinked and July sprinted by, but at least we’ve still got August! (And for those of you in southern California, cheers to the very beginning of local’s summer.)

If you’re new here, I send these recap emails out on the last day of each month as a way to share the things that this awesome community has told me they’ve found helpful, and also to let you in on things that are coming your way in the next few months. I know you’re busy and I realize I put out a lot of content in a bunch of different places, so if you’re ever worried about missing anything, rest assured that the monthly recap will have all the important stuff in it.

​From the ‘Gram:​

Made some noise on the ‘Gram last month and ping ponged between some static images and Reels. As always, links are live. Click on any of the images to be taken to the full post.

​From the online biz podcast, Maestro on the Mic:​

New episodes of Maestro on the Mic drop every Monday. Tune in wherever you listen to your pods. Tap the links below to listen to any of last month’s episodes or click the thumbnails to watch on YouTube and see just how animated I am when I speak ;-)

Thank you to everyone who has left a rating or review, and thank you in advance to anyone who was just guilted into leaving one ;-)

​From the podcast all about AI, Prompting Curiosity:​

New episode drops every Thursday. Tune in wherever you listen to your pods. Tap the links below to listen to any of last month’s episodes.

For those of you who ain’t bout that podcast life, check out the blog, The Curious Companion:

​From the Business:​

  • The Crew 52 launch was a HUGE success and I’m big stoked to kick things off next week with this inaugural cohort. Thank you to
  • Summer is still summering, but for those of you who like to plan ahead, I’ll be running round 4 of Press Publish, my 8-week super small group coaching program that comes with a 100% guarantee that you will launch your podcast, at the end of Q4, beginning of Q3. If you’ve been thinking about launching a podcast and are finally ready to make moves, add your name to the interest list and make sure you don’t miss out when doors open.

From our TV:

Y’all, I love watching tv and I’m zero percent ashamed to admit it. Lex and I binged Hacks, we’re devouring The Bear, Silo is back and is slow AF, we sit down every week to watch House of the Dragon but I don’t really have any idea what’s going on, and we’re big stoked that Ted Lasso is coming back next week. What y’all got on the tube?

From the Community:

As much as I love IG, it can be a bit of a ragebait shitshow. I think we can use that whackness as a reminder to get off of our phones for just a little bit, and get into our communities. If you’re looking for ways to help out in your community, one of the easiest things to do is call your local foodbank and see what they need donated and/or need help with. The only way out is through, and the only way through is together.

Puhlease feel free to hit me back and let me know if you have any podcast episode requests, IG post ideas, or suggestions for new workshops/courses/services. I promise I read every single response.

Alrighty, that’s it for July. Bring on August!

Maestro out.

Read time: 1 min 57 sec Whatup Reader! I am zero percent ashamed to admit that stay scrolling IG, and that’s largely because I’ve curated a feed that makes me want to be on there. For those wondering, my for you search page thing is basically home renovation DIY accounts, volleyball, and golf accounts. No, I don’t play golf but I find the content that some folks create about it really fun to watch. Anyway, as is the case with Instagram, the majority of the content on my feed is recommended...

Read time: 2 min 41 sec Whatup Reader! I’m writing this email from a hotel in Geneva as we wrap up the end of our trip to Gstaad, Switzerland to watch all the beach volleyball. Yes, you read that correctly, beach volleyball in Switzerland. The alps make for one hell of a backdrop. If you happened to catch yesterday’s Maestro on the Mic podcast episode, I discussed my feelings about working vacation and the fact that I very much take a hybrid approach, choosing to batch some things beforehand,...

Read time: 2 min 41 sec Whatup Reader! Did you know that in Gstaad, Switzerland for just $2.50 you can get the most delicious protein drink that has only 4 ingredients (skim milk, milk protein, cream, fat-reduced cocoa powder) AND 40 grams of protein?!?! The US could never. Let’s chat. If you’ve been around these parts for a bit you know I’m quite fond of the moniker, Last Minute Lucy. I use it endearingly to try and encourage the folks who like to drag their feet to pick ‘em up and do the...
