Share On Monday, June 14, 2010, my 5 year old daughter started camp. This freaking amazing, kid-directed camp where she can play soccer and learn how to knit and play video games and make HD movies, all on her own time, all in the same day. This camp that’s all day, five days a week, [...]

My Many Affairs, Far From Home
Share It’s true, I do have an apartment in San Francisco. My first grown-up private space where I make all the decisions, full of white walls and serenity and only those things with which I have fallen in love. But that is not the only place where my soul is at peace. Where I explore [...]
Do You Deserve to Live your Truth?
Share Guest Post by Lisa Robbin Young Sitting still is a rarity for me. Even when writing, I’m usually still for about 5 minutes between entrepreneurial distractions, kidstractions, and other demands. Today, though, I was in the middle of some planned reading. @chipconley‘s “Peak” has been in my hands for about 4 weeks – and [...]
Sorry, I Don't Have Any Angst Tonight.
Share I’m lying here on the floor of my new bedroom, in the outline of where my to-be-ordered queen size bed will be placed, drinking a somewhat boring 88-point chardonney out of a red plastic cup. Writing a blog post. I thought tonight’s post would be one of my to-be-written angst filled manifestos about all [...]
Are You Coming to the Live Your Truth Twitterchat? #lytchat
Share Living your truth is an adventure. It’s a challenge. It feels uncomfortable. Living your truth is not an absolute. I can’t teach you what your truth is … that is your own personal exploration.

I Am a Writer. So What.
Share I’ve written 22,000+ tweets. Hundreds of blog posts. Published a book. There are 24 entries in my “blog post ideas” text file. A few one-liners, a few with a couple bullet points, and two that are brain dumps of half-formed paragraphs and unconnected ideas. I spend a fair amount of my life in the [...]

The EPW Bucket List: Who Wants to Join Me?
Share What’s a bucket list? A “bucket list” is everything you want to do before you “kick the bucket” — everything you want to do before you die. The first time I made a bucket list was in my freshman year of high school. It was 1989. Sitting in the back of an auditorium filled [...]
How to Incorporate Adventure into Ordinary Life
Share The top question I got from my adventure/crazy posts: Sake & Ziplines, Couches & Swords: What I Learned on #austinadventures w/ @CouchSurfingOri, The Real Reason I’m Moving to San Francisco (video), and Making the Commitment to Signposts & Sh*t Piles was … yes, I love the idea of adventure, but I have kids, I [...]
