Women in leadership positions have a real opportunity to influence the culture in their organization. By this I mean choosing to show up as their "whole human self" and taking the risk of showing real vulnerability.

When working with people, assume good intentions.
When listening to people, interpret their words in a generous way.
You will occasionally get burned and mistreated by always assuming the best in others, but it is a far better way to live than the opposite.

Those who claim that nothing can be done just prove they don’t have the creativity or empathy to lead.
First time at an in person conference in a couple years and it feels right. #leadingdesign

That time of the day with a fresh cup of coffee when I declare tab bankruptcy to trick myself into thinking it is a shiny new day ☀️

Hiring for my team at @Guru_HQ is the most important design problem I am working on at the moment. This thread has great nuggets...
We've hired 54 designers & researchers in the last 4 months at Kraken. I know companies are finding it hard to hire great designers right now, so here are some tips that may help. Let’s get more designers and researchers into the best jobs we can. (Thread 🧵)

Love Rubirosa 🍕 Everyone has their favorite pizza joint. This is mine. This is the hill of tomato and mozzarella I am willing to die on. And with my 🇨🇴 fam ❤️
I drove through a rainbow yesterday 🌈

Everything we say at funerals should be said at birthday parties instead.
We leave so much love unspoken.
