# Personal context Generated May 16, 2026. ## About me Operations lead at a growing software company (Series C, ~150 people). Mid-thirties. Live in Austin with my husband and our 8-year- old, Emma. Husband travels 3+ weeks/month so I'm primary parent during the week. Side project: weekly newsletter on creative process, ~600 subscribers, 18 months in. Background: undergrad in econ, MBA, six years in growth marketing before this role. ## Right now Q2 push at work. Budget proposal due Friday and hiring panel for the new content marketer next Tuesday. Dad's heart valve surgery in three weeks (June 5). Emma's school ends June 7, summer camp not booked yet. Newsletter is two posts behind. Trying not to drop the side project during the work crunch. ## Goals this year - Grow newsletter to 1,500 subscribers by Dec. Currently 612, +9% MoM. - Get the content marketer role filled and ramped before Q3. - Run a half marathon in October (training plan starts June 15). - Take Emma to Yellowstone in August for her 9th birthday. - Read 24 books this year. At 11, behind pace by 2. ## Active work - Q2 budget proposal, final draft Fri May 17. Sarah wants ROI broken out by segment, not aggregate. Attribution data still rolling in. - Hiring panel rubric for content marketer role, interviews Tuesday. - Performance review prep for Sarah, 1:1 next Tue. She'll ask about campaign attribution numbers. - Newsletter post "creativity tools" half-drafted. - Newsletter post "boredom as input" still title-only. ## Active personal - Sign Emma up for summer camp by May 31. She vetoed Pinewood, wants theatre camp. - Email Dr. Patel pre-op questions for Dad. Mom drafted some, add the meds-interaction one. - Order Mom's birthday gift (June 12, new address: 2412 Birchwood, Akron OH). - Reschedule vendor call with David Chen. He's in Berlin so morning works for me, evening for him. - Confirm dog boarding for July 4 trip. Last year Bailey hated the cage, ask for the suite. - Renew Adobe subscription before May 28. ## People in my life - Emma, daughter, 8. Reading Wings of Fire (book 4). Allergic to peanuts. School ends June 7. - Dad, heart valve surgery June 5 at Memorial Hermann. Anxious about anesthesia. Prefers calls over texts. - Mom, birthday June 12. Recently moved to Akron (2412 Birchwood), still unpacking. Loves jigsaw puzzles. Husband died two years ago. - Sarah, manager, ex-McKinsey. 1:1 Tuesdays 9am. Hates meetings without agendas. Twins, 5. Direct, prefers data over narrative. - David Chen, vendor (analytics platform). Owes me a quote. Berlin team, UTC+1. - Mia, best friend. Last hung out six weeks ago at her birthday. She started running again. Owe her a real catch-up. - Marcus, newsletter reader. Sent thoughtful feedback on last post. Reply still in drafts. Knows Adam Grant. ## How I work - Best focus 7-9am with coffee. Sharp drop after. - Don't book meetings before 10am unless 1:1. - Energy crashes after dinner. Reading or low-stakes admin only. - Vendor calls: I have to pin a time on the call itself or they slip. Email never converges. - Newsletter posts: morning draft, evening polish. Reverse and they come out flat. - I avoid Dad-related items because they make me anxious. Schedule in the morning when I can push through. - Decisions: I'm fast on small ones, slow on big ones. Big ones I sit with for a week. ## Recently done - Closed Q1 budget review (Tue May 13). Sarah liked the segment view. - Submitted Emma's permission slip for the September 22 zoo trip. - Called Mom about the visit. Booked Memorial weekend. - Drafted hiring panel rubric for the content marketer interview. - Published "Tools that change how you think". 38 replies, one from a Stripe PM worth a follow-up. ## Open questions - Push back on the Q2 budget timeline? Sarah set Friday but the segment data is still rolling in. - Theatre camp vs Pinewood for Emma. She has strong opinion; Pinewood includes swim, theatre doesn't. - Should I ask Marcus (knows Adam Grant) for an intro, or wait until I've replied properly? - Newsletter cadence: weekly is killing me during work crunches. Drop to biweekly, or push through? - Therapy: been thinking about it for the Dad anxiety. Worth booking, or wait until after the surgery?
