Newsletter 3.3

I have a whiteboard in my kitchen.

I bought it when I was living in Tahoe.

Sometimes I feel like I think too fast. It’s my thinking board so I can take notes — kind of like I’m having a conversation with myself. lots of scribbles.

ANYWAYS.

In June I put up a list of the 10 people I admired most.

Since June,

• I have talked, emailed or called 6 of them and enjoyed a conversation.

• 2 of which have worn Athru gear (my first start up).

• 2 are on this newsletter, (Hey Seb & Chevy!!) — they have become great mentors and friends.

And this week:

I pitched a new idea to one. The women I was able to chat with today I have been following for years. I cannot express enough my sheer admiration for her.

What’s crazier- She liked my idea. She validated my analysis and helped me build stepping stones to keep moving.

I tell you this because

1. I can’t believe it.

But!

2. Next week I will be sending you all a “pitch deck” here. I’d love to see what you think and if you can help, then even better. I’ll give you a hint: This article.

P.S. Run club last week… OMG. Unreal. Here is a whole article about it because it was just — WOW. I mean, sponsored by Hoka, Joggy, Spoonful, Aina and GNGR labs!? What more can you ask for!

I hope to see some of you tomorrow! Hasta la pasta.

Last Saturday WAS A DREAM.
