A list of what's happening this week (Feb 17 - 24) ⬇️

[claire priestley @priest_ley]

@missbeaux I’d highly suggest Oren’s Hummus, but Zola and Pizzeria Delfina are two other good options. Activities wise I’d recommend the Cantor Art Museum or Filoli gardens (~20 min outside of PA)

Sad to see that yesterday was Quartzy’s very last Friday newsletter. Consistently, week over week @jenniavins brought so much joy to my inbox.

The founder of Spanx buying their 500+ employees 2 first class tickets to anywhere in the world and gifting each of them $10k on top of that is big CEO goals.

The whole world is short-staffed, over-worked and tired. Be kind.

[Romeen Sheth @RomeenSheth]

Early career years are painful.

You feel like an idiot 98% of the time - lost, confused and insecure.

I wish I had a cheat sheet of principles for my first job.

So I put one together.

Here are 20 things about building a career I wish I knew sooner:
