I’m a writer, interviewer and producer who cares about the ideas and tools that help people foster creativity, connection and meaning in our everyday lives.
My first book, I Didn’t Do The Thing Today, is the culmination of wisdom from hundreds of interviews featured in my popular project Extraordinary Routines and podcast Routines & Ruts.
To help people find the time, space and quiet for their creative work, for two years I ran the multi-city event series Side Project Sessions.
Most recently, I launched a brand new podcast, A social life, with friends to explore the pleasures and pitfalls of the various relationships in our lives.
I regularly contribute editorial columns, appear on podcasts, and share new writing in my bestselling newsletter On Things.
Right now, I’m available for a variety of commissions and collaborations with interesting people and places.
