Read time: 2 min 13 sec Whatup Reader! First off, apologies for the extra email I sent ya’ll yesterday that was intended for my Mafiosos. At least once a year I mess up on the email segmenting and give my entire list a little bonus email. It be like that sometimes. Much appreciate your understanding, and shoutout to those of you who kindly hit me up to let me know about the SNAFU. Whenever I sit down to write these emails, part of me wants to start them by saying some Maestrofied version of...

Read time: 1 min 11 sec Whatup Reader! I’m using today’s email to share the most recent post from my paid blog, Maestro Musings. More than as an advertisement (though, clearly, I’d love to have you subscribe), I’m sharing the post because the sentiment has really been ringing true for me lately, and it felt too helpful to keep behind a paywall. If you’re a Maestro Musings subscriber, I promise an extra entry in this Saturday’s Slow Drip. Without further ado, last Thursday’s entry: Don't Make...

Read time: 3 min 9 sec Whatup Reader! Summer is flying by and has me out here feeling like Rose from Titanic: Jack totally could have fit on that piece of wood, btw. 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...

Read time: 2 min 29 sec Whatup Reader! Twice in the past week I stayed up until 3 am. Picture proof taken along the journey. I’ve always been a night owl, and the deepest hours of the night are often when I get my best work done. Living on the west coast, later hours means complete and total silence as the rest of the country is typically fast asleep. But I’ve always been like this. Even though I spent the first 31 years of my life on the east coast. High school. College. My preference has...

Read time: 3 min 54 sec Whatup Reader! So right off the bat, I built a new website for my newest baby, ChatGPT Curious, a podcast for folks who are, well, curious about ChatGPT 🤷🏽♂️. CHECK OUT THE WEBSITE I stay telling my clients that if they’re promoting something they should say it with their whole chest and not bury it in a PS section, so here’ s me saying it with my whole chest. The podcast officially launches on Thursday, August 7th, but the teaser is available on all players right now,...

Read time: 1 min 48 sec Whatup Reader! “There are lots of friends around the world that you haven’t met yet.” – Claudia Liebmann Well that’s an absolute banger of a quote. If you followed my Stories last week then you saw that Lex and I were in Gstaad, Switzerland to watch a volleyball tournament. Fortunately for my jet-lagged brain I didn’t need to worry about keeping my eyes open to find a lesson in the experience to share with ya’ll. Instead, Lex and I were fortunate to meet up with...

Read time: 2 min 6 sec Whatup Reader! Don’t assume they know. Don’t assume that who knows what? Don’t assume that anyone knows anything. I’m still over here hanging out with my new bestie, ChatGPT, and the more I use it, the more I value what it can teach us about communicating with each other: Don’t assume that anyone knows anything. Ya’ll know that when I’m into something I go all in, which for this looks like podcasts, newsletters, long ass YouTube videos, and subreddits. Real talk, the...

Read time: 4 min 32 sec Whatup Reader! I wrote the email below this past Sunday while cleaning the house with Lex and listening to a podcast about ChatGPT. It be like that sometimes. When the Muse hits, I listen, and what we created is perhaps a bit…sharper than some of my other emails, but it’s my whole truth, so I’m sharing it. As always, take what serves you and leave the rest. Real quick before we get into it, as promised, I put together a list of the charitable organizations that you...
