Whoever thinks @JanieDoe1127 singlehandedly brought down #Planswell is grossly mistaken. The co. brought in just $155,612 in revenue in 2018, with net losses of $5,403,326, up from $3,812,495 the year before, according to @the_logic medium.com/@notjaniedoe/the-…

Let’s be clear: #Planswell shut down due to financial mismanagement. They made $150K on a $9M investment and ran out of money. To assign blame otherwise is only shirking responsibility and adding to the guilt burden of harassment victim and innocent bystanders.

Great time today at @TechTorontoOrg's member lunch. We chatted about #networking (the genuine, human kind, not the gross, slimey kind you're thinking of 👎🏼). 💥Key takeaways: don't be a transactional jerk, give, help, show up, be consistent, listen, do your homework.

I want to live in a world where women have the freedom to be ambitious. Where women have the same opportunities to lead that men have enjoyed for centuries. Where women succeed within the system *and* we work to fix that broken system. #SundayMorning vanityfair.com/style/2019/01…

You can’t plan a career decades ahead. Some of the jobs and places that will interest you then don’t exist now—and some that interest you now will be gone then. Throw out your 10-year career plan. Plan for the knowledge and skills you want to learn next year. #FridayMotivation

After reaching a goal, raising the bar often increases motivation but decreases happiness. To enjoy your success, imagine how your past self would see your current achievements. If you knew 5 years ago what you’d accomplish now, how proud would you have been? #MondayMotivation

The world needs fewer gurus and more scholars. Gurus preach from intuition. Scholars teach from evidence. Gurus promote themselves. Scholars promote ideas. Gurus defend ideas. Scholars explore ideas. Gurus make promises. Scholars ask questions. #SaturdayMorning
