I write Somewhere Nice to highlight the best across immersive hospitality experiences, boutique hotels, and collaborative spaces

Our spaces define how we feel and show up in the world.

This week on my substack Somewhere Nice we explore women in #hospitality and #travel.

From boutique hotels to immersive experiences, interior design & lots more.

Women pioneer creativity, influence, and innovation in the world's most exciting places.

Being the go-to for boutique hotels has led me to consider a super exciting idea.

Are you the type who stays in on a saturday evening to test out marketplace models or are you normal? lol

I'm leading Community on Everything Marketplaces and it's brilliant to learn from so many inspiring founders.

The world of AI driven marketplaces is exploding, and the key is community building.

Really excited to have landed my first client as an independent contractor today!

Really stoked to help founders, brands, and communities bring their big ideas to life—let's goooo!

omg the way substack converts HEIC files to JPEGs now— whoever did this knew the struggle and I appreciate them so much

Here's what I would do if I was a health insurance org in the US and needed a brand refresh:

1 - focus up on our content and brand positioning
2- partnerships: Chappell Roan is the only obvious answer (consider her grammys speech)
3- execute the best educational and entertaining content

I've spent almost all day refreshing Substack and LI in the wake of a tiktok and meta/IG purge.

If this keeps up for 4 years I feel like I'll finally be the elitist intellectual I knew I was always born to be lol

Over the last fifteen years I've worked with brands to define their identity, positioning, content strategy, and content production

I'm so curious as to whether or not tiktok is working for any one not based in the US or Canada.

I'm in Canada and the app crashed out at the same time as it did for everyone else in the US. Is the app itself down or is it geo specifc?

Ok so TikTok has officially crashed out

Such a bummer, who’s making the next best video sharing app?

Change feels imminent albeit slightly unpredictable. Especially in the world of work

👉 Here are my top thoughts for building happy & productive team experiences in 2025

🔵 Curate a talent attraction strategy that works: Identify how your organization supports people through programs, experiences

Welcome 2025! After two weeks of back to back flu I am back in the swing of work and it feels really amazing to be back in a routine again!

I really believe that 2025 we'll see impact of AI on jobs but not necessarily in a negative way.

Here's what I think we'll see more of in the New Year:

I feel like we don’t talk enough about how we should open a martini bar that is also a place to play pickleball and call it Brine

I will never understand the trend of people taking calls on speaker at max volume in a public place.

Like in what world do you live in where you lack that much self awareness omg

I'm building a brand studio that hones in on intersectionality.

Mainly because I feel like we lack nuance as a culture, and there's so much room for businesses to reframe culture in a way that supports our differences and embraces how these compound vs tear us apart

I love this time of year because it's such a great time to reflect on the year that's just gone and the one that's to come
