Happy Friday

Hiiiiiiii! My blog was down for almost a week and boy was that stressful! 14 years of blogging and I’ve never had my site down that long. Let’s hope it doesn’t happen again. Also, in the past week all my kids have had some sort of illness–mainly strep–and I am ready for it to be over. Additionally, we now have a teenager in the house. Is it crazy that I’m excited for these years? Also, I leave for Alt Summit in Palm Springs tomorrow and I could not be more excited. Give me some sunshine and warm weather STAT! I’m also speaking again and super excited to be amongst so many amazing power-house women creatives and entrepreneurs. This really is one of my favorite events of the year–I always come back feeling so inspired. Did you know I had the idea for my book, When Charley Met Emma at Alt and met Merrilee Liddiard the woman who illustrated the book at that same Alt? I’m telling you, Alt is magic. (Have you ever thought of going?)

I thought I would do a round up of some of the interesting things I’ve been reading, seeing and check out around the web these days. I know I love a good link round up and I hope you do too! Anyone up to anything exciting this weekend?

I can relate to this article more than I’d like to admit. And in talking to some of my girlfriends this past week, it seems like most women can.

Currently reading this book and rethinking my relationship with technology.

Walked out of the store without even trying it on and it’s my new favorite thing to wear.

I haven’t been able to stop thinking about this post from DesignMom. Gah! It is so upsetting to see qualified girls and women constantly take a back seat to less qualified boys and men.

Very cool move Scottland. Also like Trevor Noah’s take on it.

“Mom, what’s the N-word?”

OMG… this police officer can DANCE.

Remember Rayanne Graffe from My So-Called Life? From hanging out in Tino’s basement, to living in a castle. What?

How to protect yourself from the Coronavirus from the WHO.

Why is everyone ignoring Elizabeth Warren? (Who, by the way, has my vote.)

This is amazing!

Hints of progress in disability representation in Hollywood.

Hope you have a great weekend and hope to have another great Spotlight for you soon.

XO,
Miggy
