Hi gorgeous.
Feeling like a powerful woman today.
Currently grabbing a quick sushi lunch at the German version of Bloomingdale's before racing off to the immigration office to meet my lawyer and make sure I stay good n' legal here in Berlin.
And speaking of paperwork--I'm reminded to share a quick moral imperative for all of you today. And that imperative is this:
Darling, get it in writing.
Hey angel.
My computer's on 10% battery but my white-hot assistant Hannah just finished this white-hot new email template so I couldn't not just send you a little note.
We just finished jamming all afternoon over a swordfish lunch about everything we're planning to accomplish for the rest of this year, and I'm so completely f*cking stoked on what's ahead.
But most importantly, I am so completely f*cking stoked on all of you. It dawned on me this week that I am receiving your emails and Snapchats and FB messages literally every single day at this point. That's insane.
You take the time to write me and say how much you dig what I do, and how much it inspires you and that is just... really, utterly epic.
Thank you so much. I am so glad that you're all a part of my world, and that I am brightening up yours in some small way.
This is a good thing, what we got going on.
Boom, 9% battery left. I'm out. It's past 5PM in Berlin and time to close this laptop and jet back into the sunshine.
Mad, mad love. Sending you a safe and peaceful and positive weekend vibe. We'll speak soon.
Big Love,
A
PS: Sorry to all the boys I've kissed on this email list who went pale when they saw this subject line.
Hey, friends.
I feel like a ton has happened since we last spoke, so I'm going to try not to ramble on too much. Long story short, I've had a career revelation.
I know, I'm supposed to be the guru on this. But sometimes the student is the teacher, yada yada yada, so here's what happened:
I gave a 12-minute talk last week. This is how it came about:
Hey, friend.
Having a very slow Friday. Reading from Austin Kleon's newsletter--which feels like great timing, as I've been feeling a little homesick for America this month.
Luckily, I'm spending all of today pretty focused on just drinking jasmine tea and getting emotionally zenned out before I go into the recording studio tomorrow--which is certainly a recognized form of "home" in my book, no matter where I am.
And because I've been meditating on homesickness and friends, today seems like a good day to tackle a great question I heard recently from an #entrylevelboss reader. The question is this:
Networking and meetups and stuff feel so casual. How can you tell if you're making professional contacts or just making new friends?
Hey, friends.
Another summer day, and I'm feeling relentless.
No, not relentless. I'm feeling "Alexa Shoen singing Jack Johnson in full makeup with three cameras on her" relentless.
That's right, angels. Mars is out of retrograde* and I'm headed back into the studio to start recording tunes once again. As soon as next week, actually. And definitely all fall.
The longtime #entrylevelboss crew will remember back fondly to last year, when I crowdfunded The Human Jukebox Project and let people randomly vote on songs that I then made into an album and toured around Europe and America.
