Hi reader,
This Labor Day marked my 24th year as a freelance writer. Time flies!
In 2000, I was fresh faced from Northwestern, in shock by the (dot-com bubble burst) job market, and trying to figure out how to make an impact with my writing.
I then remembered the pitching I did on the side, getting articles published here and there. What if I could put enough together to pay rent?
Then I just never stopped 💨

The freedom of being an independent writer gave me space to set my own hours, work from home well before the pandemic, and build a career around my beautiful kids years later.
It also allowed me room to create a private coaching practice, become a keynote speaker, and nurture my entrepreneurial path.
It is always there.
And it expands and contracts based on how it fits into my greater life 🌎

As you’ve seen in recent BringYourWorth.tv episodes, my office has been stacked with books lately! Shortform is one of my favorite companions for understanding books quickly and remembering the highlights from classics I may have forgotten. The service goes well beyond summaries, giving serious breakdowns, analysis, arguments, and even overarching themes connecting a book to other pieces of literature. It also showcases material related to your favorite book, like popular podcasts, articles and more. Shortform is a great way to sample new books you’re curious about or to go deeper on ones you already know super well.
