Happy Friday! ☀️
Had a great and intense week of full-day coaching sessions with my clients Zalando, TLGG, and idealo and am kicking off another 5-day bone broth fast. What were your highlights? Here are mine:
What I’m reading 📖
Fantasy is usually not the first genre I pick up when looking for a new book but Leigh Bardugo’s ‘Ninth House’ had been on the Goodreads top list of 2019 and I gave it a shot. I’m glad I did because it’s fantasy yet it’s set in a very realistic setting: Yale University and it’s secretive student societies. A pleasure to read.
What I’m listening to 🎧
We’ve all seen them, the ice cream machines McDonald’s. Little did I know that the engineering and maintenance are highly proprietary and that a couple managed to hack the ice cream machines with a device which resulted in a ‘cold war’ with the machine’s manufacturer and McDonald’s. Originally a Wired long read, I was pleased to find that they have an audio version of the article.
What I’m watching 📺
Paddleton is a little gem of a movie, easily one of the contenders for my list of favorite movies of the year. Two best friends, an incurable illness, a way out, and a heart-warming final journey filled with beautiful and hilarious moments. Watch the trailer.
What I’m thinking about 🧠
"Is there anything you are aware of that we are colluding together to not address?"
– a great question to ask your therapist or coach.
What else?! 💯
One of my longest-standing clients Cowboy, Brussels-based manufacturer of fairly priced and beautifully designed ebikes just announced their new range of models, Cowboy 4 and Cowboy 4 ST (step-through). I am biased because of #clientlove (unpaid ad) but find them gorgeous. If you’re in the market for an ebike, check them out. Yee-haw.
Thanks for reading, have a great weekend!
