Issue XXXII – Welcome!
I often think about how…
Breaking into the sports world is difficult, not just because of the Brads & Chads, but also because women at the top tend to snub women just getting their careers off the ground. There’s often an underlying fear of being replaced by someone younger, smarter, prettier, etc. (which valid, but only if we allow it to remain the standard).
The sentiment isn’t as bad as it was a decade ago, when I was trying to break in, but it does still happen. So, I vowed a long time ago that if I wasn’t going to be invited to the main table, I’d build my own and invite others.
This newsletter is part of that build.

BROUGHT TO YOU BY ANGELINO’S COFFEE
15% Off Your First Order of Fresh-Roasted Pods
Most K-Cups sit in a warehouse for months before they reach your brewer — and you can taste it. Angelino's, a third-generation roaster in Los Angeles, does it differently: every pod is roasted, ground, and sealed fresh in-house, then shipped to your door within days of roasting.
Choose from 50+ specialty coffees — single origins, dark roasts, flavored favorites like Jamaican Me Crazy, plus decafs and teas — all compatible with your Keurig® brewer. Mix and match any coffees you like, and watch the savings climb: bulk discounts start at 5+ boxes and reach up to 34% off at 12+.
And here's the best part: new customers get an extra 15% off their first order, on top of bulk savings. It's applied automatically at checkout — no code, no subscription required. Free shipping on orders over $49 or 4+ boxes.
Fresh coffee shouldn't require a coffee shop.
