I’ve wasted my time on a few boring, unhelpful webinars recently. Even before COVID-19, I attended (and hosted!) lots of webinars. Clients, stakeholders, and colleagues were all over the country, and it was the best way to disseminate information in an interactive way. If you’re hosting webinars these days, know…
I mostly use Pinterest to save recipes. I have three boards related to them: “For my belly” (recipes I want to try), “For my belly – dranks” (dedicated to cocktails and extravagant coffee drinks that require instruction), and “For my belly – tried & true” (recipes that I’ve tried with…

This image was making the rounds on social media last week (at least in my circles), and I had to share. What makes you productive?
