1/ I’ve been on a pretty strong work self-help kick lately. Reading the HBR Emotional Intelligence series, listening to Dorie Clark’s the Long Game and consuming tons of podcasts and articles about bettering myself at work.
One of those podcasts is 3 Takeaways. It’s a conversational podcast with business leaders, writers, newsmakers and more talking about key takeaways that have been learned over their careers. There are lots of good gems in the interviews. Here’s a recap episode that highlights ten. “Learn solitude” being my favorite.
2/ Can you imagine this work environment? Yikes.
3/ Tegan & Sara have a new substack and it’s great! Lots of audio and music clips, lots of conversational content between the two. It’s all about creativity and art and making music. Also some great bits about the music industry. It’s a fun one.
Lastly, want to share some sad, personal news. The Schoolman’s dog Theo passed away this week and it was an emotional farewell. He was a lovely dog with a knack for getting food no matter the barrier and a very adventurous spirit. I’ll remember fondly the long walks, the big hugs and the joy he brought Susannah and family. Lots of love Theo, you were wonderful.
Thanks for reading and see you all next week with some fresh recs. Don’t forget, I really appreciate when you share this with folks that may find it interesting.
