#ASU+GSV has the best conference bookstore. 5⭐️

It’s the 5 year anniversary of Covid. Is the beauty supply store in my neighborhood ever going to take down their huge banner that states, “Open Now with Social Distancing?”

A graphic from the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation that says, “When we see to discover the best in others, we somehow bring out the best in ourselves” by William Arthur Ward. It’s a black and white graphic with an image of a terrarium housing a succulent plant.

Happy Random Acts of Kindness Day! #Kindness #Leadership #HumanPotential #BeKind #Celebrate

Today I am booking a fully outfitted production studio in a public library - for free! How cool is that?

Monday morning shout-out to librarians for the important role they play in our well-being. Love the findings in this study! Don’t you feel more calm after visiting your local library? #EduSky #Books #Reading #Libraries #NYPL

These turned out so lovely!

The news is relentless and I needed a way to manage the barrage of notifications and breaking news. I set my ChatGPT tasks to give me a daily summary of the topics I care most about. It’s giving Google Reader, but it’s working. #Innovation #Wellness #CurrentEvents

A slide with the words: The Personal Brand Statement Formula: A value you stand for + A skill or strength you bring to the table + A behavior or result you consistently deliver.

I love teaching personal brand to leaders. Something most haven’t given any thought to, but can be a game-changer in helping them show up as their best, most authentic selves. We have folks from across our company learning personal brand, professional polish, and presentation skills right now!

Can’t wait! I live in San Diego, but I will travel to the community art space!

Spent yesterday with an inspiring group of nonprofit leaders who are building their skills for the journey. What a perfect antidote to the chaos. #LeadershipMatters #WinterInSanDiego #NonProfit #CreativeEncounters #FieldstoneLeadershipNetwork

Taking another class this Saturday!

Two small watercolor paintings of a landscape with blue sky and rolling green hills.

My 2025 project is to learn watercolor painting. Beginner class today with @caseformaking.bsky.social and I am hooked.

What did you do that was fun today? I met a friend for a scoop of mint chip ice cream after work. #FunFriday #EduSky

Perfect! I am creating a capsule library on innovation and leadership this year. Will certainly put these two titles on the list! Thanks!

Saturday afternoon prepping for the week ahead with my favorite tools for innovation- my trusty Gamestorming book, tea, and a Rice Krispie treat. #innovation #EduSky #DesignThinking #WorkingWeekend
