I Marie Kondo’d My Rolodex – Time Suck City
While adding a few new people to my contacts I met at a recent “Up Front” event in New York City, I realized I have a whole slew of others that I no longer need to keep tabs on. I moved three years ago and in that time, I stopped doing news in one town and...
