I vaguely recall an article or study describing that by the time women resign from their positions, they’ve been thinking about it for 6 months or more and are likely no longer retainable. Does anyone know a source for this?.

I had a meeting today with 2 other women. Just us. We had a couple mins chat about something kinda feminine (our hair) to start. It was delightful, the whole vibe 💗 And rare 💔.

I realized I’ve had career-y chats with 3 (!) former bosses recently. Feeling particularly grateful to have that kind of support ☺️ Thank you @kdaigle, @tbmcmullen, and @chadfowler 💪🏻❤️.

I read “OFC” as “of fucking course”. Every time I’m like, “jeez okay” 😬.

My advice includes:.* let ppl know the question(s) in advance: decouple thinking of an answer & delivering it to an unfamiliar group.* don’t use questions that could alienate or confuse anyone .* don’t make ppl be funny.

Our dog Scout's name is proving tricky with my northern Irish accent. The doggy daycare staff were copying my pronunciation and calling him: "Scoot" 😳 I finally corrected that with, "like boy scouts" 🎉.

We're safe & sound with the Boulder fires. Smaller fires caused evacuation and power outages for our area this afternoon but were handled by the fire service. We’re watching from afar the big fire raging to the south of the city 😨.
