So yeah, I didn’t fully unpack my suitcase for pretty much all of June, and it was also one of the busiest months I’ve had in terms of projects. Sometimes I feel like I do more focused work when I’m super-busy because I know my time is limited—and also because I’m motivated by what I’m making room for. Between work and personal trips, this month I spent time in both the mountains and in the desert and by the beach—and in the city, of course.

I also made my first National TV appearance in June on NBC’s Nightly News With Lester Holt, talking about a topic that’s very important to me. Another new endeavor I am thrilled to share with you is that I’m now creating guided meditations for Simple Habit, a meditation app designed to help busy people stress less, achieve more, and live better. You can access my recordings via my profile on the platform.

As I do every month, today I’m sharing a round-up of recent publications and media appearances.
