Out Of Discomfort Comes Greatness.

My Background Is Advertising: I Moved To New York From London In 1998 To Start Up The U.s. Office Of Ad Agency Bartle Bogle Hegarty.

Vulnerability Is A Loaded Word, And It Can Off-putting And Terrifying To People. The Best Moment Of My Life (and By The Way, This Actually Wasn’t A Single Moment) Was When I Realized That I No Longer Give A Damn About What Anybody Thinks. What You'd Talk About As Vulnerability, I'd Talk About As Simply Being True To Yourself.

Too Many People, Including The Ad Industry, Believe The Future Is Something That Happens And Just Rolls Them Over In It's Wake.

I Realized I Was An Attractive Older Woman Who Never Wanted To Settle Down.

Client Companies And Advertising Agencies Are Old-world-order Places. The Systems And Processes And Structures Come From A Time When You Shot The Tv Commercial, Then You Did The Print Ads, Then You Did Everything Else - Including The Website. Everything Has Changed, But The Systems Haven't.
