Do I know anyone at Intercom or a CRM tool developer who would talk to me about how customers manage call-lists of customers? Am working on this in the context of primary care patient management and could use advice.

I'm loving using "DO-ITS" notes by.@cameronmoll. They're simple, Post-It notes that you fill out each morning to focus on your key daily tasks. Very effective.

Good advice to start the year. Obviously it's easy to say "don't care what others think" but it's worth pushing through to get your early and imperfect work into the wild.

in 2025 i’d encourage young designers to. - share more unfiltered work, publicly, consistently.- don’t care what others think.- build that idea of yours that you’ve already designed. it’s easier than you think.
