I want to live in a world where women have the freedom to be ambitious. Where women have the same opportunities to lead that men have enjoyed for centuries. Where women succeed within the system *and* we work to fix that broken system.

It's amazing how many online discussions live at the bottom of the hierarchy of disagreement. If you're in a debate and you call someone an asshat, you're the asshat.

You're entitled to your own opinions in your head. But if you choose to express them out loud, it's your responsibility to: (1) Ground them in logic and facts (2) Explain your reasoning to others (3) Change them when better evidence emerges

No, getting a lot of email is not an excuse for not replying. It's a small act of incivility. Get organized. Engage. Show you care. And set boundaries. A short reply is better than none at all.

Data shouldn't replace human judgment. Data should inform human judgment. Knowing what works on average still requires you to assess whether the average applies to your situation.

The joy of giving lasts longer than the joy of receiving. Gifts received are quickly taken for granted as things we own. Gifts given have staying power as contributions we've made. :
