Share How many tears have I shed in the last week, the last month, the last three years? Tears of suffering from the harsh lies of the bitch in the corner. Tears of hopelessness, tears of trapped, tears of working, pushing, forcing, trying to make it happen so hard, for so long, so many times [...]

The Terrible Secrets of the Uncomfortables.
Share You had The Moment. And now that horrid, sickening feeling is coursing through your body. Your mind, your gut, your very cells, the genes passed down to you from your caveperson ancestors who needed them to flee saber-toothed tigers and various impending dooms are all screaming at you: STOP! IMMINENT DANGER! YOU WILL MAKE [...]
There Is No Done.
Share I’m pacing the streets of the San Francisco financial district, carrying my Peet’s non-fat no-whip mocha & my Noah’s everything bagel, toasted, with all-the-fat cream cheese. Right-thumb typing this blog post in the Notes of my iPhone as I blindly cross intersections, following the suits. Until I look up & realize I’ve arrived at [...]
How to Decide if You Should Buy Build Your Tribe
Share If buy Build Your Tribe, magical fairies will plant money trees in your backyard, you will make millions of dollars while you sleep and have hot sex with beautiful people, and you will fly first class on your neverending world tour, never needing to work again. #notatruestory No, I’m not going to talk you [...]
How to Be a Curious Monkey
Share Guest post by Wendy Maynard. I’m a tryer on of things. Perhaps it comes from being born in the Year of the Monkey, but I’m driven by curiosity.

The Big, the Scary, and the COO
Share A few weeks ago I woke up and realized that the only way for me to grow big was to get help. And if I didn’t … everything (including me) was going to collapse. But the hard part of hiring Ken Moorhead as my amazing new COO was not finding him. The hard part [...]
What Does It Mean to "Live Your Truth?"
Share I talk about Live Your Truth all the time (it’s even tattooed on the inside of my wrist!), and every so often someone actually asks me straight out, “what do you mean by live your truth?” As I’ve said many times, I can’t tell you what it means to live your truth. Because it’s [...]
EPW's Tattoo Adventure in Florida
Share In February 2010 I packed up my kid & flew to Boca Raton, Florida to hang w/ my BFF Allison Nazarian and her two kids … and while I was in town, we drove to Orlando to hang out with our friend Jason Rubacky & get my tattoo! The tattoo is not because “Live [...]
Sake & Ziplines, Couches & Swords: What I Learned on #austinadventures w/ @CouchSurfingOri
Share I sat down to write this blog post about my adventures in Austin 4+ hours ago. But I did not even opened up a blank text document to get started until this moment. Instead, I futzed around on twitter. Facebook. Skype. Checked my Google Analytics. Researched when Lilith Fair will be touring this summer. [...]
