Hey!

How are y'all doing? I'm waiting for warmer weather so I can enjoy my breakfast outdoors again.

Again, like Taylor Swift, I am revisiting another previous post that I think is really relevant to getting the best out of our projects - the stakeholder/user interviews.

I conduct these to give me all the information to make great choices in the project itself, it’s process, and it’s desired outcomes. As you know, I use a number of processes - including writing - to lay out what I know and what I don’t know. This is another tool that can help us fill in those blanks!

ps. Please rate this email and let me know what you think of these re-writes (I swear there are only 1-2 more coming).

Five things

1. As you may know, I updated my website a couple of weeks ago. I finally took the time to update the list of tools I use to run my business too!
2. Tons are raving about the new Datalands website - and they should. Data visualization is such a difficult skill to master and they do it together with beautiful branding.
3. I loved this post by Tanner Christensen on learned helplessness, and can relate to his writing that "the thing about learned helplessness is that it can feel like "the world is against you", when it's really "you against you.".​
4. ​Good books - find your next favorite book.
5. I love music and one of my favorite jobs ever was working in a record store as a teen. I could listen to all the new music (this was a decade before Spotify). As I've grown older, I've been finding it increasingly hard to discover new music. Record.club, a new social platform (built in Malmö!) might change that!​
