A field guide to growing up without growing apart
Does anyone else hate starting a new job? I do, big time. In addition to figuring out how to perform your role, you have to meet a million new people and try to remember their names, figure out where the bathroom, the break room, and […]
I am in a bit of a strange place in my life right now. Old things are ending but new things have yet to begin. A week ago was officially my last week of my last quarter as a student in Oxford. I have […]
Speaking of work, because that is all I have to talk about apparently, I asked for equity today. When I started working here in February of 2015 there were no employees, just a CEO with an idea and some sales and two of his […]
A month or two ago we hired a new person at the company I work for and since we are small and haven’t hired anyone new in a while, it has been a bit of an adjustment. Because we’re so tight knit, we’re pretty flexible […]

This month we decided to talk about what, well, everyone is talking about. The US presidential election! All the princesses weigh in on what this election means to them and how they are managing to stay sane in an insane world. Well hi there, […]
It’s been over five months since I last posted here. If you asked me what I’ve been up to in that time I could tell you a lot of things. I took a Mediterranean cruise and got to show my favorite travel destination, Italy, to […]
