What I’m doing, thinking, reading, and building towards.

A brief snapshot into some of what I’m up to.

Hello and thanks for taking the time to read my Now page. It’s great to have you here!

If you’re wondering what this page is about, think of it as a way to learn a little about what I’m thinking, reading, doing, and sharing around the current time. The difference between a Now page and an About page is primarily time. Now is now whereas the About page is an introduction to who I am, what I work on, and why.

Expect the content below to change over time. And if you’re ever curious or want to chat, you can always get in touch with me via the contact form.

It’s all about Season 2

We’re in the final stages of getting ready to launch Season 2 of This Multidisciplinary Life. It goes live Thursday 17 July. I cannot wait. There have been some phenomenal conversations in this season, some new insights, stories that I never knew would be shared, and people willing to show generosity, vulnerability, and kindness.

If you’re all caught up on Season 1, you’re in for a treat with this next season!

Reading

I feel like my reading has really taken a dive lately - I’m struggling to keep up with my level of reading ambition and practically how much time I have to read each week...plus, I really like my sleep.

I’m still slowly working through Chip and Dan Heath’s The Power of Moments - it’s worth the time.

Fearlessness

I recently read this quote by Hannah Arendt: “Fearlessness is what love seeks. Such fearlessness exists only in the complete calm that can no longer be shaken by events expected of the future… Hence the only valid tense is the present, the Now.”

....when were you last fearless in this context?

Winter running

My favourite time of year running is winter running. I love being in the layers, in the dark, feeling the icy cold on my face and wondering why I’m possibly out of bed right now with cold ankles...and then I start moving and it all fades away. The stillness of the morning, of the dark, the ability to just ponder my thoughts and let them file themselves away. The cherry on the cake is when it’s foggy.
