Friends, Physical Health, Co-Founder
Breath of fresh air away from unhealthy the toll of quarantining
đ What went well: Friends Friends Friends
Iâve had the privilege of being in the presence of my Wes+Pinoy friend Carlo Medina, visiting the Bay Area for a few weeks! (Hi Carlo!) We had lunch at a farmerâs market, people-watched at Dolores Park, visited a friendâs house (Hi Marianna!), & grilled meat & pineapples at a Sunday cookout.
Seeing faces of close friends, beyond the pixels of a Zoom screen, was so refreshing. Hoping for more refreshing moments like this!
đ What could be better: Physical Health
Couple not so gr8 things that happened / I realized this week:
Lost 10 pounds since COVID started, not in a healthy way (minimal exercise, forgetting to eat meals)
Worked all the way up until 11PM on Thurs because of a launch with metrics that didnât go as expected
Told Nick that I was going to have a hard time sleeping that Thurs night, thinking about work, & it came true with my tossing & turning from 2-4AM
On Sunday, felt super sleepy the entire day!
Extremely dehydrated during Sundayâs heat wave & had a difficult time at an outdoor dance practice
Getting harder to see things & needing to use my glasses more and more
Not good. I need to be better.
đ Whatâs up next: The Search for the Co-Founder
Iâll [attempt to more fervently] âinterviewâ & work on mini projects with potential co-founders and work on projects with folks. If you know anyone whoâs on the same journey, let me know!
đ Nudges of the Week
Tool: I recently migrated my website and used Notion + Super.so (also in the powerful #NoCode repertoire.) If youâre looking to setup a website in <30 minutes (seriously), use my Super.so referral code ;)
Read: Through ODF, I discovered the beautiful mind of Jomayra Herrera, an investor in Cowboy Ventures. Read some of her work discussing a new definition and more human perspective on the âfuture of workâ trend.
