Gen Y Generalized

Posted on October 14, 2008 and Tagged , ,

I just posted a statement on twitter that I decided I had enough energy about to turn it into a full blown blog post. Let’s back up and tell you where this mini-rant is coming from. I am currently sitting at the New Marketing Summit and I just heard Timothy Young speak about Collective Creativity & Gen Y. When I first read the write up about what Timothy would be… Read more →




This is why I’m hot

Posted on August 1, 2008 and Tagged

No I’m not going to bust out with ridiculous lyrics (though chances are you’re already hearing the song in your head) the title of this post is inspired by the theme of NaBloPoMo for the month of August – Hot. The chances of me blogging everyday for the month of August is about negative 12. But I can still take inspiration from this month’s theme. Recently I have been finding… Read more →




Who is Happier?

Posted on June 17, 2008

I’ve debated whether or not to have GenPink be geared specifically to women or keep it more neutral with the occasionally pinkness. Since this has been an ongoing debate I’m always interested to find sites that are geared specifically to women (or so they say). This mornings I found SheZoom – A new online community focused on woman-friendly, compelling and real-world information. Essentially SheZoom is a video sharing YouTubeish site… Read more →




Is Gen Y really Lost?

I can’t really give much commentary without giving things away other than make sure you watch the whole video before you come to any conclusions




Saying “No”: Men vs. Women

Posted on February 6, 2008 and Tagged ,

I heard something on Oprah that made me STOP, say “hold up” to myself, hit rewind on the DVR and watch it again. “When a man says no in this culture, it’s the end of the discussion. When a woman says no, it’s the beginning of a negotiation.” – Gavin De Becker (author of The Gift of Fear) – as seen on Oprah’s episode Trusting Your Intuition. Are we really… Read more →




In an instant moment

Posted on January 30, 2008 and Tagged ,

In an tiny moment, I am reminded about what is really important in life. I spent most of my day (actually week) stressing about the daunting details of life (work, traffic, laundry, etc.) and in one moment, with one phone call, a cosmic two-by-four just hit me upside the head and said “life is not about laundry”. This awful phone call (that I am still in shock about) was from… Read more →




How Much is on Your Plate?

Posted on January 20, 2008 and Tagged ,

I’ve noticed that sometimes my life seems to resemble a sitcom, in the aspect that a reoccurring theme continues to present itself. You know how on TV shows, each episode tends to have 1 theme, that all of the characters get to deal with in their own particular way? Sometimes in my life, I continue to get the same message from many different unrelated sources. When this happens I always… Read more →




Twenty Something Advice: Make your goals measurable

Posted on November 29, 2007 and Tagged

A goal without a plan is just a wish. – Antoine de Saint-Exupery Most twenty somethings I know would consider their twenties to be a stepping stone in their life on the path to bigger and better things. Gen Yers in particular are known for being big dreamers. For me, having a goal and having a dream produce different results. A goal without a deadline is just a dream. A… Read more →




Twenty Something Advice: Is it time for a job change?

Posted on October 25, 2007 and Tagged , ,

  A friend emailed me recently asking for my advice about her current job situation. Instead of writing her back privately I decided this would be a great post for our twenty something advice series. I am posting her question, with some details changed, along with my advice and I would love input from you as well. Her question: is should I stay or should I start looking for other… Read more →




Twenty Something Advice: Don’t plan your life based on what other people expect

Posted on September 20, 2007 and Tagged ,

I decided to start a new series called Twenty Something Advice. To start off this series I sent this message to my real life friends – you know the people I have meet face to face. [rambling introduction to my blog since my friends don't really read it ...] My ultimate goal for such blog is to have lots of random advice/insights/ideas about the balancing of life that is involved… Read more →
