“So I heard this thing on a podcast…”
How many times have you heard someone say this in 2019? I find myself dropping this line all the time. It’s cliché, but I can’t help it! My brain is constantly being filled with new ideas, unique perspectives and interesting conversations. Give me a chance to share something I heard on a podcast recently, and I’ll take it.
This week I am starting a bi-monthly newsletter (100% copying the idea from investor and social entrepreneur @timferriss) called Five Bullet Friday. No BS, no fluff, and no wasted words, Five Bullet Friday will be my avenue to share the most interesting observations, powerful stories, and inspirational insights I come across throughout the week.

Boom! That’s it for now. See you in two weeks. I’ll continue to try to write a blogs once and a while but without a structure to it, other activities quickly become a priority. Would love to hear your feedback. Which of the five point was most interesting to you?
