Eternity, Rediscovering Your Creativity, Living Off the Grid
Hi friends,
How are ya? It seems like true fall is upon us. I went out of town for the weekend and came back to chilly rain. Exactly how I like my weather!
I also came back to a conference that is taking up my every waking hour. People talk about the epic highs and lows of high school football. What about the epic highs and lows of a work event that you’ve spent a year planning? Where’s the media representation for that?
I’ve worked on this annual conference since I started at my job, and it feels like my child. I’m protective of it. I’m gentle to it. Clearly, I do not have children and do not know those intense emotions. For now, my conferences are my babies, and this one is about to have another birthday! Does anyone else relate to this feeling?
In today’s newsletter, we’ll talk about Eternity, living off the grid, and how to rediscover your creativity.
Let’s get into it!

Remember in Barbie when Margot Robbie said, “Do you guys ever think about dying?” In the new movie, Eternity, Joan (Elizabeth Olsen) and Larry (Miles Teller) have one more thing to think about after they’ve died. In a world where souls have one week to decide where they want to spend eternity and with whom, Larry and Joan run into a conundrum. Larry believes that he will spend eternity with his wife, Joan. These plans seem square until Joan’s first husband and first love, Luke (Callum Turner), resurfaces. He waited decades for Joan to meet him in the afterlife. Who would you choose between your husband and your first love?
por qué no los dos? If you told me A$AP Rocky would be in two movies in one year, I’d think you were pulling my leg. If I Had Legs I’d Kick You is a new film with Rose Byrne playing a mother trying to handle it all. Her kid is sick. Her husband is absent. Her therapist is Conan O’Brien. This woman cannot catch a break. In comes A$AP Rocky’s character. From reviews, this movie sounds like a 113-minute anxiety attack. I’ll be sat!
