I’m getting caught up on posting — this is actually the Best of Both Worlds episode from last week (March 30th).
Sarah and I recorded this episode together in Vero Beach a few weeks ago. We open with a Q1 report. How did the first few months of 2026 go? In some ways good, and in some ways they were a bit more harried than expected. We also look forward to Q2 with the goal of making sure expectations match reality.
We then pivot to talking about “now and then.” Sarah found an artifact in her childhood home of a list of 41 goals she made in 1996 (roughly). So we talk about what our lives were like in 1996 and how much we think changed or didn’t. Sarah notes that she seems like in some ways she is the exact same person (although she’s learned to set more effective goals — “try harder” is hard to know if you have succeeded!). We ask — would we have been friends in 1996? (I hope so!)
In the Q&A we talk about energy levels, and managing energy so you can do fun things in your non-working hours. Please give the episode a listen! I’ll post about this week’s episode later this week.
