I have been enjoying my summer exploring the #BAYAREA
Just #bartandyourethere !
#TheBart is essential to your #StartupLife in #SiliconValley
The Bay Area 5 point transit system is one of the best in the country
Yes it’s great to use a #lyft #uber #sidecar #getaround but sometimes its easier hop on Bart and just get there without waiting in traffic!
BART stands for Bay Area Rapid Transit

As a millennial, transitional, startup, entrepreneur, or solopreneur you must guide a vision and honor your goal all while remaining agile.
New ideas and concepts typically do not resonate with those who lack vision
If someone laughs at your dream don’t take it personally. If you can’t sleep at night because it is in your heart and a part of your soul. Then go forth with it.
Ask yourself a few simple questions
1. Is this possible?
2. Has another human accomplished this?
3. Am I a human?
4. Do I have the skills? If not… Do I know where to locate the skills?
5. Do I want to give 100%?
If so, then move with the nature of your song. Do not fight your greatness because it wasn’t “planned” well enough so that others can get on board. Take your blue print and go! Start and they will follow. You NEVER have to know all of the answers.
Just remember my words
“First they laugh, then they follow” Liberty Madison
#SiliconValley is all set for the 10th annual #blogher14
Ladies coming together to share their stories about how #technology has changed their lives!
This group is not centered on #tech #programming #cryptocurrency #hacking #startups or any of the normal ways you think of the subject, it’s centered around connection and how they used those tools of technology and made it applicable to spread their message of cooking, fashion, products, makeup, hope, weight loss, family, parenting, travel, career, and life!
Amazing!
If you miss it this year please mark your calendar for 2015!

At Eagle Driving range in Silicon Valley
Did you know that SoMa has an indoor driving range?
Our very own high tech driving range.
Yea neither did I!
I decided to stop by and check it out!
Have to say Eagle Club Indoor Golf is pretty freaking sweet!
I walked in unsure of what to expect and was greeted with the friendliest smile and warmest energy ever. Peter, who just moved back to the bay after being gone for 8 years, gave me a one on one tour of the facility while explaining the high tech simulations and data analytics of the stroke.
So it turns out that the StartUp mecca of the world, also known as SOMA, has an indoor driving range that host private parties and serves alcohol until 9 pm Monday through Friday. How did we miss this little gem.
It is so very Bay Area to take a break from work and walk over to the high tech driving range.
Whether you are an avid golfer, new to golf, don’t care about golf but care about a place open late that serves drinks, just want to go and be nosy, you thought golf was football, you own a Playstation, you are a tourist, you have seen a Nintendo Wii, you want to chill on your lunch, your cousin told you about it, or to host a meetup or team building event.
This is a perfect Tech spot for the #Startuplife!
If you discover you have a passion for golf beyond the occasional visit you can get tips from PGA tour pros like Rob Boldt and Courtney Burdick.
But let not aim to perfect your new found golf skills it may create a desire to go off and join the tour!
We still need you to create golf apps for those who can’t get to SOMA. #ThatTechGirl tries High Tech Golf

@daltile made my year! I attended the #sfdesignstudio event with #mohawkgroup + #daltile and I literally cried twice.
The universe gave me a gift!!
I got a chance to revisit my childhood memories with the #president and #vp of Daltile.
#haroldturk and I connected over a shocker!
We both loved and cared for the #founder of Daltile. My mentor Robert Brittingham.
(Bob) changed my families Life. He was/is a visionary. As a child he steered me in the direction towards #entrepreneurship. Yes my Jr high and high-school was shaped by this man. Day in and day out. I sat in on so many meetings of him yelling at these guys, yelling at #jerryjones yelling at the #mayor. He was stubborn but had a good heart. He dropped out of #usc to launch daltile. I remember sitting next to his bed and him saying he would do it all over again. He said follow your dreams and use EVERYTHING you have to your advantage. Whether its #beauty #brillance it just doesn’t matter use all of your tools!
I practically lived w this man. He was amazing and to walk down a street I Never go down and see the manifestation of his vision brought me to tears. I walked up and asked if I could speak to a Dal til employee and I walked up to the president! Something kept telling me to go down that street I didn’t get it but now I do. Im so thankful to connect with these men and share stories and tears! Remembering a man who changed all of our lives!!
It was so funny they could not believe I knew so much detail and inside corporate information. It was so funny! They paraded me around and I had the honor of meeting more of (MR.B) lovely employees.
I felt like I was finally back in Dallas with family.
Yes living with Billionaires raises the bar and exposes you to a world most would only dream of.
My tips and experience about life is a combination of my time with Robert Brittingham. (MR.B) has been my bar on which to measure success.
A few quotes from him
“A good fight is good for the soul”
“Calculate the risk”
“At times its unethical but do it anyway” (well we differ on that) 🙂
“Use everything good gave you”
“Never let one person determine your future, find a way”
He had a vision, launched, grew it to the largest ceramics company on the planet.
I think of my OFTEN
And I miss him. I loved him.
Thank you!
Pictured above is me with Harold Turk (President) and #JohnCousins (#vicepresident)
I bet Mr.B is tripping out. What were the chances of me going a way I don’t normally go to run into these men in #sanfrancisco and share a moment!
Its a small world!
MY POST OF THE YEAR!
#rip you are loved.
