Stay at Home, Day 23 – Discipline and Ci
It was my 27th or 28th birthday, and I was living in NYC and training at Grandmaster (GM) Kim’s school on 50th St. I was upset because I hadn’t heard from my parents yet for my birthday. When I complained to GM Kim, he told me that I should be calling them to thank them […]
Leadership Lessons from the Burn – Part
It’s the middle of a build day, and I’m listening to one of our new camp members complain about my co-lead, the person I asked to step up and support me when the responsibility of bringing The Punkin Project and leading our camp at the same time became too much to manage on my own. […]
Leadership Lessons from Burning Man – In
You did it. Good job. C.H. I’m not sure why that comment stood out, I think it was the punctuation, but it was the first acknowledgement that landed, like it’s done. It being bringing a Mutant Vehicle and theme camp to Burning Man, a goal I set for myself after my first Burn in 2011. […]
Love & Money

Managing the Dome Asylum, The Punkin Project, the AnomaR Festival, and […]
What to Ask Before Accepting That Gig
In keeping with sharing my mis-steps, and what I’ve learned from them, with you, let’s talk about vetting your clients before taking on a job or client. Most new business owners and entrepreneurs simply want customers to get the cash flowing, and you may be tempted to take everyone and anyone that comes your way, […]
Set Yourself Up to Win
Big games break down into small games. Marathons break down into sprints. When you’re playing a big game, you want to set yourself up with small wins along the way. These will build your confidence and momentum. For example, when I developed the game plan for the Punkin Project, I knew that to build a […]
Perseverance is key. Persist.
We just booked our first wedding at the Dome Asylum and so many people are congratulating us, which is great, it’s always nice to receive acknowledgement, but I know that some people just don’t see all the work we’ve done to get to this point. They say things like “Wow, it manifested just the way […]
