Twice a week, I share insights on sustainable creative knowledge work and finding daily beauty—from Maria Callas' approach to perfection to the sprezzatura in Gianni Agnelli's effortless suit styling.

These are ideas for people who want to experience the world as artists, not as machines who've accidentally gained consciousness. 🤖

Because while optimization gets you places, the most beautiful parts of life happen in the nuances that can't be hacked.

Sometimes it's about how Federer's tennis reminds me of bel canto singing.

Sometimes it's how earworms make grocery shopping feel like a musical.

Often it's connecting cultural patterns that make ordinary moments more interesting.

This is for accomplished creatives who:

• Want to develop elegant habits that make work feel effortless, not exhausting

• Believe elegance is a way of thinking, not just owning expensive things you're afraid to use

• Notice beauty in both opera houses and Pixar films

• Get genuinely excited about cultural references that make other people look funny at you

• Have ever caught themselves quoting Frasier while running errands (it just makes life more fun!)
