meeting space

Some corners of a home become anchors. This is one of mine.

My desk sits in a quiet office with good light, a clean surface, and a vase of flowers I change out when I can. Not always extravagant stems — just something fresh. This week, it’s pale blush lisianthus: soft and ruffled, with long green stems that reach gently toward the light.

My work is about voice. Helping people — often leaders at the highest levels — find the clearest, most honest version of what they want to say. I’m in the background of interviews on TV, headlines in top papers, speeches given at investor conferences. The work is demanding and fast-moving. But this space helps me meet it.

I designed this office to feel like mine. Built for focus. Personal, but not fussy. Everything has its place: the notebooks I reach for again and again, the books I’ve underlined, a small candle I light most mornings before the emails start. It’s a space that holds me up — especially when I’m holding up others.

Some days, the desk is full of notes and calls. Other days, it’s just me, a draft, and time to think.

Either way, it’s where the work begins.
