#life

2025 was my year of doing ALL the things - speaking at 5+ conferences, starting a podcast, shipping side projects, and somehow not completely burning out. I learned that momentum creates more momentum, perfectionism is overrated, and seeing people in real life again after years of isolation is actually really, really good.

A look back at parental leave, switching teams at GitHub, finding crochet, and starting therapy and an SSRI that changed everything.
