Pegs and Holes: Thoughts from the not so beaten path
I’ve been thinking quite a lot lately about systems. The systems we create, rely on, and get stuck within.

Looped Conversations
Do you ever find yourself having the same conversation, over and over again? Whether it’s with others- or inside your own head. It could be about your goals, the latest thing to happen to you, where you plan to go next, what so and so did last weekend and how hilarious that thing was. Or […]
