ORBIT: “Some of them join me in zoom rooms and some over in Discord, but if digital is not their thing, we’re doing snail mail, long phone calls, and methods of platform-independent connection,” says Mel Mitchell-Jackson.

IGNITION: “Can I say your suggestion to start hosting zoom calls was a gamechanger over here? I now have a tiny group of people who are on a journey together and are making things happen. I know them and they know me and so much more can happen at that level. it’s like we’ve done intros already, lets get to work now,” from a former Email Guidance client (members get two free rounds with me). 

TRAJECTORY: “When I hear (my talk from The Moth), I wish I’d gotten it a minute or two tighter. But what is also there is me, the human being, doing something I was not fully prepared for (because there was no way to prepare except to do it),” Kato McNickle

SIGNALS: “I like how everyone talked without raising their virtual zoom hand and how nice and goofy and smart everyone was,” said our Escape Pod guest Erin Shetron.
