In your 20s & early 30s, fight for your life when it comes to friendships. Don’t believe the low effort narrative or that these relationships are transient/ not important. Life gets kinda crazy as you get older and those sisterhoods might be the only thing holding you together.
Airports really need gyms and showers. If I have a 3-hour layover, I’d rather get a workout in, stretch, shower, and walk onto the plane feeling fresh than sit around drinking overpriced airport coffee.
I have so much respect for women in academia. The intellect, discipline, curiosity and sheer perseverance it takes to build a life around knowledge is deeply admirable.
Dear Rosemary, you understood the drive and ambition behind many of the opportunities I run by you and offered guidance, encouragement and practical input ... the news hit me hard and I am yet to come to terms with it. Befitting tributes have come in from far and wide, testament to the person I knew.
Thank you for your friendship and collaboration through the years.
