All About It —
What’s fascinating me right now
We are wildly blessed these days, with 24/7 access to the best people & ideas from all over the world(s). It’s never been a better time to be a geek and I revel in an array scan followed by a deep dive. It’s what nourishes me and I love sharing. Some things that are making me smile...
#1 It Just Resonates
Podcasts are one of my greatest loves. They’re someone reading to you while you work. A wise friend that’s always on call and a safe place for supported learning with people you trust. I make them because I adore them.
My absolute favourite is Malcolm Gladwell’s Revisionist Histories. Back for a new season and better than ever.
Listen for: Malcolm’s voice, perspective and ability to bring humanity and a sense of mischief to every subject. Brilliant.
#2 Pastel & Prince
It’s winter in Melbourne and adding a little colour is helping to help keep the pep in my step. This pop of violet is a perfect antidote on a grey day.
I can’t see it without thinking of the beloved ruler of all things purple... Perfect for bopping round town listening to the new album of unreleased tracks ✨💜✨
#3 Brain Boosting Plant Babies
”Being near indoor potted plants helps us to de-stress and restock our stores of mental processing power after we’ve depleted them doing knowledge work. We do thoughtful work better when we are around indoor plants.” Psychology Today, 2018
Couldn’t agree more... Bunnings here I come.
