Hey there, I got some news recently that was equal parts “F yeah!!” and “F sigh🫠🫠🫠” A potential investor (and My StoryPro user… there’s a trend here I’m realizing) told me she wants to give me money. *that would be the F yeah part. Then she told me why she can’t. Yet. “When I google My StoryPro the first […]
Hey there, The message came through WhatsApp. “Patrice, I’m hosting an event with Anthropic and a private dinner. Come!” My stomach dropped. I looked up flights immediately, and put them in the cart. Cursed the price OUTLOUD. Hovered over BUY. And couldn’t click on it. Let me back up really quick. The quick context if […]
Hi there, Last Thursday I went to dinner in Lisbon with a bunch of strangers that I am connected to through Justin Welsh’s substack community. If you don’t know Justin, he built a massive LinkedIn following on consistent content, then turned it into digital products that are actually worth the money for how to build a profitable, lucrative […]
Hi there,So my oldest is 12 (nearly 13 in three months.) He’s the only kid in his friend group (almost his grade) without a phone. We’re the designated hang house (master plan going great over here thanks for asking💅) but I’m also the “can’t be on your phones” house. A few weekends ago collecting all the devices before they went […]
Hi there, I know I’m late to this party but I just started the book, “10x is easier than 2X” last week. SO many people recommended it to me (devoured it) and then I promptly went down a Dan Sullivan rabbit hole (one of the authors) who has apparently coached more leaders and founders than pretty much anyone on this planet. […]
Hi there, Where did we leave off? Oh right… the “AI Female Backlash.”We’ll get back to that below… But first I need to tell you about my mom’s bucket list, which is not like the others. She flew into Lisbon last week from Chicago (cleaning products from the MotherShip in tow for her equally cleaning obsessed […]
Hey there, I’m not one for getting in on the Instagram comment train lest I end up upset, nervous system popping, dropping F bombs all before the hour of 7AM. (have gone through a few Olympian medal stages of that in full disclosure.) But today I was not to be played with. All of a sudden I […]
Hi there,One of my favorite AI writers — Ruben Hassid — dropped a piece this weekend that I can’t stop thinking about. (sorry Vee for my 874 messages, notes, clickup chains this weekend😬) It’s called “You’re just a text file.” The premise: sit with Claude for two hours, answer 100 questions 🫨 🤯 about how you think and […]
Hey there! Last year I finally met my co-founder Wiebke (but you can call her Vee) in person for the first time. Some of you might remember that reunion if you follow me on Instagram… where her first words to me were, “OMG your face isn’t symmetrical!!” 🙃🙃🙃 I am still laughing about that. Vee’s attention to […]
HOLA! We are STILL spring breaking over here. In our car Griswold style through the Spanish coastline. Most of us we’re all still speaking to each other. 🎉 And we are all getting some history education on our favorite podcast on all things World War II, the history of racism in America, The Congo (I had no […]
