Alyse Mason Brill Position / Job title?: Founder, Fit Approach Founder, SweatGuru 1) When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? So many things! I wanted to be a veterinarian until the first time I saw our vet take my cat’s temperature – that was a real deal breaker for me. After that, I wanted to be a teacher, a writer, and like every kid,
This is really only a question I suppose a 40 something can answer and after perusing this site and reading some of the posts I whole-heartedly agree with their advice. It’s all very sound and practical and wise. None of which I usually am, and I especially wasn’t in my 20’s. I had a great career, made good money, had a couple a great boyfriends. Then, I lost the good money and broke up with Yes, this is another “Dear Diary” type post. Yes, I have become a typical gen-y female whining constantly about her love life (or lack there of). Yes, I know it is extremely annoying. Yes, I know, I am probably the reason I am still single. Okay, I have to do a blog post about my date, so I can get it off my chest, and move on with my day. After taking a major break from online dating, I decided to re-activate my OkCupid profile a few weeks ago. So last night, I met up with a fellow that I
Full name?: Kelly Holt Position / Job title?: Founder and Editor-in-Chief of The Austin Phoenix 1. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? Wait, which part of my childhood does this refer to exactly? Could it be the time when I wanted to be the founder of an environmental advocacy organization (to save the neighborhood trees), or the time when I don’t know if you are like me, but when it is actually time to eat, I can never think of anywhere to go. I like to post these restaurant reviews on Friday…just in case you need somewhere new to try this weekend. A few weeks ago, we tried Xian Sushi and Noodle, after reading a review in the local newspaper. I love noodles of any kind, and this place claims to be Austin’s “first hand pulled noodle bar”, so I definitely wanted to check it out. ADDRESS: 1801 E 51 St Bldg C 370 Austin, TX 78723
Full name?: Ashley Lauretta Position / Job title?: Assistant Publicist at PR by the Book; Freelance writer 1. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? Back in 1999, it was decided that I would become a copy editor at the Chicago Sun-Times – I have Josie Geller from Never Been Kissed to thank for that dream. Up until that point, I had not yet realized that I have always been a worrier; I can’t even remember how many times my dad has repeated this quote to me: “Worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do, but doesn’t get you anywhere.” I can’t help it! Worrying about things that never actually happen is just part of who I am. In some ways, I think worrying helps me to get things done: I worry about my clients’ deadlines, I worry about not having enough media placements, I worry about growing my business, etc. However, a lot of the time worrying is really just I wanted to do this post right before the weekend; in case, you were looking for a new place to try out. Let me start out by saying: I have this weird hatred of “cool” places that are located in malls. In my opinion, malls are made for shopping, and the only time you should be at a mall is when the stores are open. They are not made for living or hanging out. However, last weekend, I was meeting up with a friend, and we needed a place that was easy for both of us to get to. We I like to write about things that inspire me. This morning when I was listening to my favorite radio morning show, The Bobby Bones Show, I heard something that was actually incredible. Amy, one of the co-hosts, has periodically shared stories about her mom’s battle with cancer. It went away, came back, went away again, then came back again. I guess right before the holidays, they found out that the cancer had come back in a more aggressive form. Other than, experimental treatment there is nothing left to do. She just shared this last bit of devastating news
Full name?: Kristine & Stephanie Navas Position / Job title?: Co-Owners of Closet Deep 1. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? Kristine: We both kind of were on different tracks since we little. I knew I always wanted to be architect because it was something my dad liked and it was artistic. My sister was wanted to be a doctor. We didn’t exactly end up there, but we ended up where we were meant to be. 2. Fast-forward several years/decades. How |
