Friday's Five 🖐🏼 #73
Happy Friday's Five,
Greetings from Brussels where I spent a day with my client Cowboy Bikes and where I'll be spending the weekend to babysit my two nephews for the first time longer than just a few hours.
What I'm reading

What I'm listening to
Dax Shepard on Sam Jones's podcast 'Off Camera' – this conversation is a masterclass in vulnerability, if such a thing can even be called that (Apple Podcasts).
What I'm watching
Coldplay – A Head Full Of Dreams – I had shared the trailer to this documantary a few FF's ago and watching this made me remember why I love music and why I feel in love with Coldplay in the first place. Gave me goose bumps and made me emotional several times while watching (Amazon Prime Video).
What I'm thinking about
Read to relax or read to learn. How to read faster or how to learn to better learn from reading. Confused? Yeah, me too.
What else?!
When long-time friends come and be your guest on your podcast: I've know Soraya Darabi for more than a decade when she was at The New York Times. She then went and co-founded two startups and recently started her own venture firm Trailmix Ventures that invests in people and companies that are creating the future of living well.
