Spoke to a group at @HarvardHBS last night about my transition to early stage VC and mentioned my excitement about companies tackling mental health. Woke up to 4 emails from people working on this. So encouraging!! 💆♀️🎉💪

- I've looked up to @ChristenPress since my very first day with @StanfordWSoccer in 2009. 10 years and 2 World Cup victories later (!!), it was so special to watch her inspire a whole new community in our @kleinerperkins founders and investors ⚽️🙏

- The number of my friends actively debating leaving their jobs is unbelievable. Feels like more thinking about leaving than staying! 🤯 Most looking for something earlier, more flexible, and/or mission-driven. Others need time off to reset after a rollercoaster 18mo. What a time.

- "Her genius is that her political commitments, her public persona, and her playing style are one and the same. In every realm, she is fearlessly open, outrageously joyous, and unabashedly true to herself" Live like @mPinoe 🙏 bit.ly/2XYiabH @re__social
- It's such a mess. My 90yo grandmother lives in Sarasota and we couldn't get one for her either. No chance she would have even been able to register (or find the eventbrite page) on her own. Can't imagine the situation for those without adequate support and/or internet 😭
