I built a small macOS utility for URL encoding and decoding strings for my own use, but I thought it might be helpful to others too, so I released it on the App Store: apps.apple.com/us/app/encod...

Taking breaks is essential, but not having a plan can be costly. 💡 In my latest post, I explore the balance between routine, strategic pauses, and adapting to change. I also share why having a plan, even a flexible one, is vital for navigating challenging times.
