Why don't we measure career success by impact instead of titles or salary?

Sure, we can impact people around us regardless of title, and we can donate to effective charities (see GiveWell), but what if we aimed a little (or a lot) higher?

Governor Braun plans to vote on his brazen redistricting plan to unfairly represent Hoosiers on Nov 3rd. All 10 Democratic state senators are opposed. Republicans are mixed, and we have one more week to let them know where we stand. Call at (800) 382-9467

The new bill passed by Republicans in Congress is cruel.

Learn how it could affect you & how we can hold the elected officials who supported this polluter giveaway accountable!

I don’t think I’ve ever called a representative before, but this was super easy to do and feels like an important thing to do right now. Give it a shot.

VP Vance has cast the deciding vote in the Senate to cut Medicaid, take away food assistance, blow up the deficit, and add tax breaks for the wealthiest.

This bill is unpopular because it is wrong.

Congress votes this week, but it’s our voices - and our votes - that will have the final say.

I worked at Planned Parenthood.

They diagnose cancers while still treatable. They help women decide what birth control works for them. They help those working through mental health challenges.
 
Defunding them just harms people who already struggle to find places to get care.

This “Big Beautiful Bill” is actually awful and would destroy families and homes. No thanks.

Absolutely!

I wrapped up my time at Verse Communications a few weeks ago and I’m taking some time to figure out what’s next.

I’m especially interested in mission-driven orgs, and I’d love to help a nonprofit do their work better. If you work for a nonprofit or know someone who does, I'd love to chat!

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
