Communication

Zero isn’t just a number. It’s a story we race to fill in: Was it any good? Did it matter? Am I just… invisible?

You can’t fix what you don’t understand. So learn the business — then make it better.

We say we’ll keep in touch. But most don’t. I try to be one of the ones who does. In fact, I’ve built a system for it.

Don’t impress the room. Invite the room. Say it simply. Say it clearly. Say it like you would to a five-year-old. Then watch the work move forward.

You can’t control how people respond to your work. But with AI, you can practice hearing feedback — at the pace you’re ready for. That’s what this experiment is all about.

I used AI to generate a podcast where two hosts talked about me and my writing. Not just summarized — talked. Awkward. Humbling. The feedback wasn’t real, but the self-reflection was.

Expression isn’t about being loud. It’s about making what’s inside you clearer, so you can see what matters — and shape your voice along the way.

The bigger and scarier something sounds, the more important it is to cut through the jargon—and “stuff” is my favorite way to do it.
