Stuff that made me feel alive:

  • karaoke sesh

  • audiobooks

  • fire dancer sol client on testnet

  • calls w/ my sister

  • long runs

Notes:

Being ‘ready’ is a myth. You have to do the thing anyway. Playing the long game is realizing discomfort is a by-product of everything that is truly powerful, generative, and free.

Stuff that made me feel alive:

  • snow day

  • remarkable pad—I love this thing!

  • tyler the creator—his interview w Rick Rubin is magical

  • shopping for bachelorette theme night outfits

Notes:

“don’t dim your light for anyone, talk your shit but back it up, articulate and be a sponge, your opinions on things can change, and do your shit with careeeeeee” - Tyler The Creator

Stuff that made me feel alive:

  • costa rica!!! went surfing, zip-lining, dancing, hot springs, good food, danced.. fire time

  • made silly tiktoks w friends

  • miami work off-site - super productive learned a lot

Notes:

“Don’t force relationships.”  — What’s forced eventually falls apart. Forcing only delays the inevitable.

Stuff that made me feel alive:

  • HS bestie’s wedding in Charleston

  • face masks

  • being a bridesmaid at two of my best friends’ weddings

  • learning about quantum physics

  • running

  • nft NYC

  • solana NFTs—the Mad Lads mint was epic!

  • celebrating my birthday with my mom in Houston ( we have the same bday april 19th)

  • launching our institutional wallet product at consensus

Notes:

“New things scare us. Do it anyway.”  — By acknowledging fear, we are better able to move past it.

Stuff that made me feel alive:

  • learning about how video games are made

  • playing pickleball

  • lizzy and dans wedding

  • chance channel perfume: I love that scent

Notes:

“Do high-energy tasks early in the day.”  Do creative work when you have the most energy.
