@shreyamurthy hell yeah

[ying ❥ @yingzgee]

for yoga specifically, you can look into YTT 200 around the world - it’s technically a teacher’s training but I think it is such a gift for your own practice as well (i did mine through Lakshmi Rising in Costa Rica but they have since moved to Portugal) + or else there are many 10 day vipassana retreats globally depending on your geographical preference

The faster the world changes, the more we must turn to timeless truths: the fragility of knowledge, the centrality of face-to-face collaboration, the wisdom of tradition.

We are all influenced arcane scribblings of the past; we are all the wearers of "cerulean sweaters". To know this history is to move more freely through the world; dialogue with the past empowers us to shape the future.

What a privilege to bring people together in Toronto to discuss these ideas alongside @_benjaminparry and @jiamixue, hosted on Wygo by @jossmurphyy, featuring the gorgeous design of @anthea_irl, a beautiful livestream led by @looeegee, and a full-blown book fair.

This was the beginning of a dialogue we hope to carry forward in Toronto for the rest of our lives. It is an honour to be part of The Great Conversation with all of you.

Stay tuned for the full video & written lecture in the next few weeks.

it’s fun working w abundant mindset people bc failing is not even in our realm of possibilities

we acknowledge there will be challenges, things might not work out the way we want, but there is no doubt we will come out on top & succeed in our own way

@NotionHQ a chic camera bag brand ! specifically today, reviewing the user feedback from our 10 interviews over the weekend + deciding what changes to make for our V2 sample

[ying ❥ @yingzgee]

first camera bag sample in my hands !!!!!

[ying ❥ @yingzgee]

i’m hunting down an instagram handle for our camera bag brand & after some digging it turns out it’s an old name of a hotel restaurant that has rebranded since 2017

i called the hotel and the front desk guy enthusiastically told me he thinks the owners would have no issue with that & that they will reach out

they didn’t

i called again

different front desk guy picks up and gives me and email to the general manager

i wrote an email, followed up

no response

just called the hotel again, i explain the situation again, he told me the owners will get back to me

i am not giving up
