About these thoughts I’ve brewed…
This a culmination of more than a decade of experience (aka learnings from successes and failures) in design, startups, remote work, leadership, and life in general.
What I’ll cover
About 1-2x per month, I’ll answer reader (this includes you!) questions based on a variety of topics like:
Designing quality driven products
Leadership / Being a CEO
Processes / Automation / Workflows
Accessibility / Compliance
Remote Work / Building a remote team
SaaS
Startups
Fundraising
Data and AI
Parenting / Life / Health
So be sure to AMA!
What you can expect from each email
Thoughts I’ve Brewed Along the Way is an experiment in itself, and together weaves the story told if you were to sit me down and ask me every question humanly possible. It’s not a one-time deal. It’s a living document of my learnings (if the experiment succeeds). Filled with opinion, research, learnings, raw honest truth, and as with most things of mine on the internet, without filter (read: my humor is dark and my language is colorful).
If you ask me a question, and I don’t know the answer, we’ll be deep diving. Regardless, it’s the place where I pick my own brain apart—debunking my thoughts until I validate the right approach to anything. Including how to build the newsletter itself.
It’s all a science really.
You should know something though…
I dislike the fluff on the internet. It’s easy to find noise. So if you’re looking for quick patch solutions instead of sustainable solutions?
This ain’t it.
You won’t find answers from me if I’ve never experienced it, but I will point you to someone who has. I don’t have every solution, but in anything I share, I’ll remove a lot of the bullshit you’ll typically find around the world wide web. Know that’ll sometimes manifest itself as incomplete answers, which is great, because you’ll get to benefit from the journey as I learn, too. And given this is an experiment, I’ll tend to pick and write about topics that are top of mind for me at the time—peeling them apart, debunking
Life is hard, painful, and beautiful. I’ve met and worked with phenomenal people. I’ve learned from some of the best, and often I’ve struggled. These are the thoughts I’ve brewed along the way…
And as always, thanks for reading.
Cat.
