This email could have been a meeting
A newsletter inspired by the one meeting this year that didn’t make us cry inside.
We’ve survived many soul-crushing meetings, contributing more than our fair share to the black hole of lost productivity. But the good meetings? Those rare shooting stars in the endless night of calendar invites? That’s where the magic happens. Ideas collide—inspiration, connection, and creativity thrive—and nobody wants to fling themselves into the sun. That’s what we’re going for in this newsletter series.
So, what separates the necessary from the nonsense?
In this series, we promise to:
Include an agenda. A meeting isn’t a fortune cookie—nobody should be guessing what’s inside. For each issue, we’ll lead with an agenda (aka the sides of our desk) for that week.
Follow the agenda. There will be no detours. A meeting without an objective is just loitering with slides.
Get to the point. We've all been in that meeting where Tyler decides to launch into a passionate monologue for 25 minutes of a 30-minute meeting, leaving 5 minutes for the actual topic. Not here. Brevity is a great meeting's best friend.
So, with that said, here’s our first agenda:
Who are we?
What is this newsletter series, exactly?
What you can expect in future issues.

Who we are:
We have demanding corporate jobs.
We moonlight as entrepreneurs.
We love connecting with people who also thrive on caffeine, ambition, and questionable work-life balance.
So, we’re doing this. Whatever this is. Stay tuned. This is for you. For us. For whatever this is.
What is this exactly?
An email for people who hate useless meetings but enjoy:
Original thought.
Realistic performance hacks.
Marketing, creative, and design.
Side hustles and entrepreneurship.
Memes that hit too close to home.
Overthinking life at 2 AM instead of sleeping.
If that feels familiar, you’re in the right spot. If not—there’s a polite unsubscribe link a few scrolls away. We won’t be offended. Much.
What to expect:
✅ A maximum 5-minute read. Because we respect your time (unlike Tyler in your last meeting).
✅ A highly curated mix of things that have absolutely inspired—or enraged—us.
Agenda topics may include, but are not limited to:
How we look after ourselves while working two jobs (and getting paid for one).
Founders doing cool (or chaotic) things.
Spicy marketing and entrepreneur news + gossip.
Playlists, one song at a time.
Late-night thoughts we probably should’ve kept to ourselves.
Alright, close this tab like you’d leave a meeting that should’ve been an email: quietly and with a slightly awkward wave.
