Happiness is @ridermccoy and I checking in on our annual and perennial community garden plots at @codmancommunityfarms in Lincoln. Forgot to take a photo of the perennial plot. š¤
Year two for the garlic. š§

Happiness is reuniting with a coworking membership at @Workbar in Arlington. Added bonus: @getbevi in the second photo. Happy to see thatās still here.
Iāve had a membership several times over the years. I checked my email and it looks like I first worked out of their original South Station location back in 2009.
Now @flashandmidnight get the apartment to themselves more often. š¹
I was in Vegas this past week with my @redharpunion colleagues working with our clients at CES.
On Tuesday night, @lavatechbrands + @realhypecreative (@erica.y.y@adrianquihuis ) hosted a party with special guests including @akon . This is a photo of Allen (Red Harp Unionās CEO) and I with him. š
There were a group of social media influencers there as special guests, too, including @estheranaya@stephh@olyveramusic@nathantsuji . I had a fun conversation with one of them when I told her I was part of a small group of bloggers in the first āpaid to blogā program back in the early 2000s. She asked me what platform I wrote on for it. A thing called my personal website at Sooz.com. Back in the pre-social media days. šš¤
On the turntable on the last day of 2025ā¦

First record on the turntable on the last day of 2025, itās Letters to Cleo from Boston, Massachusettsā¦
@letters_to_cleo - āCanāt Sayā on their album āBack To Nebraskaā
#ontheturntable #nowplaying #boston #massachusetts #backtonebraska
And on a related note, I will be back to Nebraska in February.
@uturnaudio sent me a motor replacement for my turntable many months ago and I finally opened it up and swapped the old motor for the new one. It was very easy to do and I probably didnāt need to wait so long. š¹
#NowPlaying: @willdaileyofficial - āMake Another Meā
These days, the meals I cook for myself are healthy and tasty, but they donāt always look good in photos.
š¹š¹š¹
Hereās one that actually looks good in a photo. āØš§āš³āØ
In the bowl:
Kale and lots of fresh garlic cooked in avocado oil, chicken breast cooked with smoked Spanish-style paprika with a tablespoon of homemade (avocado oil) mayo mixed in.
Not pictured: peppermint tea with two scoops multi-collagen peptides powder.
Despite being on LinkedIn for A Very Long Time, today is the first time I have ever posted something āself-promotionalā. Curious times require extending beyond oneās usual comfort zone. Perhaps!

And hereās the post, tooā¦

Everyone says āright-hand support.ā
But Iām left-handed, so that was never going to work out. š¹š¹š¹
Instead, I show up as the left-hand. The calm one. The steady one. The one who builds the dashboards, remembers the deadline, and gently nudges you when your plan is still in six Google Docs and a napkin sketch.
Itās not glamorous. Itās not loud.
But itās the kind of support that helps founders and teams breathe easier, make clearer decisions, and actually ship the thing.
No magic wand. Just systems, structure, and solid follow-through.
(And yes, sometimes color-coded spreadsheets. I contain multitudes.)
+++++
Oh, hello. Iām Sooz. Need a left-hand in your corner?
Letās talk about whatās not getting done, and how to change that.
