CHECK ME OUT ON MEDIUM! 

There's just something about standing up for piece of content because you believe in it—even if the editors of umpteen pubs didn't. 

I get it. The piece tries to do a lot. It's not just the personal narrative of how I started coworking with a group of moms back in the autumn of 2016—or how we've since used these functional playdates to prop up all sorts of goals over the years (career, personal, vocational, creative, and otherwise). It's also an article that provides takeaways, as well as some historical context, and of course, some COVID-level framing....

Meaning, sometimes you have a lot to say. Thankfully, Medium lets you say whatever, however you want. Having gone through a gajillion questionable headlines before picking this questionable headline (because if I still worked at Yahoo, it's the one they'd insist I use), so I'd just like to see you even TRY to resist clicking on:

"A Generations-old Trick for Staying Productive — 
Yes, Even with Kids Around" 

But if not, then at least sit back and enjoy this archival photo of the most 70's of all ladies, enjoying a little sewing bee in Central Park, from back when the fashion was hot, the hair was long, and the sisterhood was STRONG. Enjoy!

COVID-19 Response: TeleMedicine Clients

Telemedicine client Doctor.com had a surge of business and content needs for physicians and hospitals eager to keep up with patient demand during quarantine. Here's a few content marketing titles from the weeks and months after the pandemic hit the east coast:

BUT. That was a few months ago. Now that we're deep into September, I've been back out by the firepit, wrapped in a hoodie and sock hat in honor of this crispy fall weather. I think — thank goodness — all the doctors have their telemedicine platforms figured out for now. The weather's creeping colder so I'm just gonna be here, fireside, in the little pause before winter's storm, getting warm.  

(That is, until my next project update...an exciting one...coming soon!) Stay tuned...
