Twice in two weeks, I let the meeting run long—and the ideas that came? Pure gold. This summer, I’m choosing flow over frenzy. Less rushing, more presence. Because sometimes the real magic shows up after the clock says “done.” #creativeflow #summervibes

“If you know like I know…” is never just a phrase. It’s a soft launch for “I told you so.” Elders speak in prophecies, not opinions. 👁️ #Sproism #ElderTalk #IfYouKnowLikeIKnow
