Have had a genuinely marvellous day at Product for the People 9. It was lovely to be back in the room after so long away. Sending big love to @jukes.ie and @visitmy.website for arranging, and to everyone who spoke and was there. Next time, Leeds!
Apparently my walking motion imparts enough force in my hair for it to pause my Pixel buds. Joy
Baby group in the pub and one is zonked out on the seat no drama and another is exhaustedly screaming their head off despite being offered all possible options to snooze - perfect illustration of how all kids are different and what works for one is not an example of your 'good' parenting
Ask me to work through a problem with any level of context or knowledge and my brain fires into action. Ask me how I meet some vague criteria in a form and I got nothing but crickets Surely job applications and performance reviews are not this hard for everyone?!

Got told I "wasn't a typical Leo" today In a work meeting What am I supposed to do with that bs
Given everything the last few days it feels like a good time to say I'm going to be needing a new job from September! I'm going back to contracting and looking for Product Coaching or Product Community/Chapter Lead type stuff. 3 or 4 days a week.

Leandro Paredes should be banned from international football for life viciously assaulting Spanish players after the final whistle. Indefensible thuggery and criminality.
Can tell how dodge the Argentinians are playing because my father-in- law who is the most mild mannered chill man known to mankind is muttering 'gits' under his breath every 2 minutes

Man. Had forgotten how brutal interviews are I am done.
Good news is it is hopefully Kane's last world cup so i don't have to watch him go missing and stroll around for the latter stages of future tournaments
Listening to 5 9-year-olds playing collab Roblox from another room is wild "hey guys, slime" "room 2, room 2. Canadian" "my sanity is 56" "I never get to drink cough syrup" "it's the wet guy"
5 10-years olds in my house for a sleepover. Son was devastated to learn he'd only be allowed around 3 hours gaming time and then they'd have to settle down for a movie. They're all outside running around in the garden instead anyway and have been for like an hour
Soft launch when everyone is distracted recovering from the England game...Product for the People is back on the 3rd September in Bristol. Less unconference-y this time - more corridor conference-y with three brilliant speakers and some lightly facilitated conversations. luma.com/rjsq2i36
