The Agile Wire: A Podcast About Self-Selection

Category: Podcasts | Self-Selection
October 20, 2020

A month ago, I recorded a podcast for The Agile Wire with Jeff Maleski and Jeff Bubolz, both amazing Agilists in the Milwaukee/Madison area with an incredible podcast. We covered self-selection topics at a broad level: everything from what it is to planning a self-selection event to how to run a successful virtual event. I’ve done about a dozen events so far and Jeff B has too so there are a lot of tips and tricks from the trenches in this episode. I had so much fun chatting with these two and I hope you have a lot of fun listening to the podcast! Note that you can find this podcast wherever you listen to podcasts.

Retiring Early When You Still Have Kids at Home

Most retirement content (books, podcasts, financial planning guides) is written for people whose kids have left the nest. The vision it sells is the same as the one I had going in: extended travel, leisurely mornings, and complete control over your calendar. You do get some of that. It’s just not the whole picture when you have to get someone to dance at 6pm.

Jane Austen’s Bookshelf by Rebecca Romney Is The Gift That Keeps on Giving

Jane Austen’s Bookshelf by Rebecca Romney Is The Gift That Keeps on Giving

Romney’s book, Jane Austen’s Bookshelf, is incredibly well-written and eye-opening. Somewhere between her descriptions of the fascinating world of rare book dealing and her excavation of the lives and hardships of famous female authors of the 1700s and 1800s, I realized something that stopped me cold: we have let men curate so much more than just our decisions about what to read. I quickly gave this book five stars. Here’s why you might like to read it too.
