The truth is, we’ve entered a new...

Marketing Yourself While Maintaining Authenticity

I had an interesting realization while on a brunch date with my oldest daughter, Emily (15). Over some delicious Indian food, we talked about our purpose, what feels meaningful, and what we enjoy working on. And some questions she asked brought up some revelatory insights that I’ve been pondering. Mainly, I realized that I don’t necessarily want to be the spokesperson for the brands I’m...

Raising Entrepreneurs

It’s exciting to see my kids learning important life skills at a much younger age than I did, and actually earning money with these skills!

Two Weeks in Kerala, India

With the dozens of countries we’ve visited over the past decade, we kept putting off traveling to India with our kids mostly because we heard it can be a bit intense, and a place where it’s easy to get sick. We’ve always wanted to go, but with young children regularly putting fingers in their mouths, we thought it would be best to wait until they...
