BUT WHAT AM I UP TO NOW?

The company I unintentionally started in 2017, Legacy Launch Pad, is working on its 60th book. It blows me away that a one-off experiment I did in my small Hollywood bungalow turned into a multi-seven figure business that has transformed the lives of so many people.

I've been speaking at places like EO, Vistage and Genius Network about determining your Legacy Statement so you can share what you do in a way that makes people care while also building the core material for any book, media appearance or keynote you do in the future.

I've been working on my first novel in over a decade-and-a-half. It's fun to write for sheer love of the sport again. Speaking of novels: I'm still developing the movie based on Party Girl (recently finished a rewrite of the script for a new producer that's gotten attached). Oh, I also caught the Substack bug.

As a late-in-life mother (one of the grosser expressions that exists but hey, it's descriptive), I have a lot of freedom to obsess over my son and insist to people who ask about him (and those who don't) that he's the most adorable child alive. (It helps that he is.)

After decades of deriding the Valley as a place for people who have given up on fun, we moved to Burbank and I fell in love with it.  We're talking joining the Burbank Chamber of Commerce, dragging my family to local events—the whole nine yards.

I revived my book publishing podcast and am now also Lisa Smith's co-host on the podcast formerly known as Recovery Rocks. Listen to Behind the Book Cover here and Sober Living here.
