Really fun getting to share my journey building @Klickly on WHUP FM radio. Growing up in NC was idyllic and to see it exploding as the next big epicenter for tech is so fulfilling. (And not just Klickly is establishing a presence in #ResearchTriangle and #RTP, both Google and Apple are opening large campuses as well!). https://lnkd.in/e2D5VJXQ

Fun at @growla with @f808z @miaellax - you can’t see them behind us, but they have supplied us with puppies! #ecommerce #growla #dtla

Hanging @geekout_edu with M^2 MSquared playing later at the Stagecoach #Nashville #ecommerce #data #countrymusic (love you @sarapereda , thanks to these amazing artists 😂😂@tonydoesads @cyclingtolose )

If you follow me, you may notice I’ve been taking a bit of a social media hiatus. While social media can be a great tool to connect and share with others, we all know that it can be time-consuming. I’ve been using this newfound time to work on a secret, exciting new product under the Klickly umbrella 🤫. Keep an eye out for announcements later this month! I’ll be offering beta access for anyone who wants to acquire customers for the DTC brand using ML and data algorithms, so stay tuned!

Congrats to my beautiful friend, @cooperharris , her husband, #Xavier, and their new baby on the way! 👶🏼 🍼 #BabyShower . . #NC #NorthCarolina #Raleigh #Flowers #Gardens #Girlfriends #BabyBoy #Finn #Wilderose Necklaces: @alittlehappiness_nyc Matching Set: @francescas

When I started my high-tech business, I was told by more than a few investors that I should pivot my software platform to be a shoe marketplace. 😂 🤨 Needless to say, I did not take their advice. While I love sectors that are deemed “female-focused”— shoes, makeup, etc. — I would love to see more women enter high-tech industries with businesses that command high multiples, targeting unicorn status. I think women bring a different and extremely helpful perspective to problem-solving — a perspective that is often missing in the upper leadership at high-tech companies. Not to mention, more involvement in this arena would help bust the stereotype that women-founded companies are typically in lower multiple categories.

In honor of #WorldSocialJusticeDay, I’m sharing a story from the book “Right Here Right Now, Stories from America’s Death Row.” This piece is called “U Turn.” Thanks to @hiddenvoicesus for the honor to share these stories. #socialjustice #criminaljusticereform

My #valentine today was a BABY GOAT! 💝🐐💞Goats are so adorable. Cute little creatures that find joy and playfulness in everything (including simply walking around - they randomly bounce and jump) … Such a fun activity that made me giggle 🥰💗💞#happyvalentinesday #babygoatsofinstagram #myfurryvalentine

If you know me, you know I'm ALWAYS cold. You probably also know I take my healthy lifestyle very seriously. While I absolutely love winter ❄️, the arctic temperatures have made it hard to stay motivated. In business — like life — you can either stop ... or work to solve the problem. So I bought some cold-weather ninja running wear! Now, a little cold (well, a lot of cold) won't stop me from running towards my goals. If something isn't working out... get the appropriate gear, make the changes needed to push forward. And always do it in style. 👤

Around this time of year you'll often hear "new year, new me." You may have a lot of lofty goals you're hoping to achieve, but how do you make sure you're on the right track to complete them? This year, I did this on my "First Annual Planning Retreat" in St. Pete's! It might sound indulgent, but how many times have you been on company retreats / conferences? They throw these events because they're effective –– isolated retreats focused on a common goal work! So why wouldnt you implement the same in your own personal life? The beach, sun, and SPA (!!!) at @[Don Cedar Hotel] were the perfect setting to make sure that I'm keeping as up-to-date on my personal goals as my company's. Whether it's personal goals or business goals, the key to prioritizing for the new year is reviewing your long-term “North Star” goals. Then compare those goals against your current challenges and learnings What’s going well? What needs to be improved? Can you identify the “gaps” that need to be prioritized and the “wins” that can be leveraged for greater success in the new year?

What are your New Year's #resolutions? For me, in 2021 I learned a healthy work-life balance is a must. Part of my inspiration was this cute little fur baby — Donut the Pug. He recently said something I thought was quite profound: "Woof, woof, bark, ruff, woof, bark, snort snort." Which, I think, is roughly translated: "We need to do a better job of putting ourselves higher on our own ‘To Do’ list." (he may have actually pilfered that from @MichelleObama ) For Donut, that actually means a rigorous / consistent daily routine. He's bizarrely attuned to his schedule (impressive internal clock) whether it's his 7am breakfast, 8am meditation time, his 12pm lunch, his 3pm outside play-time, his 5pm dinner, or his 9pm bedtime cookie + story -- in every case, he measures his day with a unchanging routine... And he's about the most joyful, totally-carefree critter I know. For me, this translates in a slightly different way (fewer cookies, for one)🏃‍♀️ But daily exercise, eating healthily, and a daily "gratefulness practice" are key to what I think will be a balanced and joyful new year!! Whatever it is for you, make time for yourself in 2022!
