Ep 18: Lesson From The Road

We gravitate towards what we’re familiar with and living on the road has shown me that we can choose what we’re familiar with in order for our environments or daily routines to serve us.

EP 15: The Physics Behind Kickit & What Makes It Flip

It’s funny because almost NO ONE knows this... but... The CG or Center of Gravity Controller is actually where ALL the magic happens for Kickit!🌟 I’m not an engineer or a physicist👨‍🔧, but I certainly learned a LOT about *both* when I was creating the Kickit with former MIT Engineer, NASA, Spaceforce and USAF Milstar Chief of Engineering Krissa Watry Krissa patented “Deployable decelerator based microsatellite recovery” for Spaceflight... 🚀👀 ... If you know how to decelerate a satellite to come back into the 🌎atmosphere... you could probably help decelerate a kickit!🤓 So THIS piece, the CG Controller is the brain 🧠 behind it all. Without precise engineering and countless hours of testing to make this piece, the Kickit wouldn’t flip over as perfectly as it does... and the flip🔃is the key!🔑 I guess what I’m really saying is, the flashy Red🔴Feathers and Elastic💢Rubber Kick-Pad get all the hype... Our amazing Center of Gravity (CG) Controller needs some love y’all!❤️🤓 If you like this episode, I hope you'll share it in support for all the details that make something great and get taken for granted. They need love too! See you on the next one. -E

EP 14: The Product is the Process

It's so easy to get wrapped up in near term goals and lose sight of the process. I was reading an article about the dissonance between a board room and their non profit that provides community service. The board room makes demands for delivering on measurable performance indicators, and the non-profit struggles to believe in that rigidity when their soul purpose is based on intangibles.  The story goes that they have an uphill battle to climb in demonstrating that real cultural change within a community isn't about a balance sheet but about relationships and inspiring hope.  It takes time to generate meaningful change.  This is the lesson I explore and I hope you'll enjoy my take! Thanks for kicking it with me. -E
