  • Updates as I work on my page

    I just rewrote my introduction page and published it this week. The first time around, I thought it looked good. After rereading it a couple of times, I started to notice how it is unclear or vague. Full transparency, I intended on creating curiosity for the readers who may be intrigued to reach out and…

  • Forget figuring out what scales, focus on sales and services.

    When you’re in your earlier phases or just starting out your online business with a small team, the focus should be figuring what you already know is “right” or “working” 1000 times. There’s nothing to scale just yet when you are running your business with only 1 or 2 of you.

  • “Your vibe attracts your tribe.”

    Yes, the headline is cliche but it rings true. There’s a reason why it’s a cliche but that’s not the point here. As you know, if you have a message or a story to share, you’ll want to make sure it reaches out to the people that resonate with your message or story. Imagine yourself…

Truthfully, it was…

  • Coming out of the dip…

    I recall a concept by Seth Godin and I think it’s his book called, “The Dip” I should be checking online to double-check but I’m not going to turn away to slow down my momentum and train of thoughts as I’m typing this. But yeah, it was where I was in the last couple of…

  • Doing Deeply Interested Work

    This resonates with me. The work I’m doing is something I can easily do deep work and lose track of the time. It’s about pushing the boundaries in how Deaf people communicate, learn, and thrive. It’s about challenging the status quo. There’s technology, AI, interpreting services industry and online coaching. It’s about empowering Deaf people…

  • The Playground Face-Off Between the Deaf Dad and Hearing Dad

    I’d like to share an incident between with my toddler and a hearing kid at the playground… The other day, my family and I went to a splash pad with other friends and their toddlers. There was a playground beside as well. My toddler’s hearing aids were taken off when playing at the splash pad.…

  • What is a creative outlet? (And how do I leverage it to make an impact?)

    I asked Chat GPT this question and this is the response I received: A creative outlet is a means of expressing oneself and channeling creativity.
