LEAN IN

W

hen we last met, here in Editorial Insights, I wrote about my
love for planning. Knowing what I'm doing today, tomorrow, and the
next allows me to be my best self. My full calendar sparks joy.
When my fiancé and I decided to move out West in September
2018, I got right into planning mode. Flights were booked,
meetings with property managers were made, and bags were
packed. We left beds, kitchen appliances, and that one missing sock
in our four-bedroom home in Louisville, Kentucky, and moved into
a fully furnished studio apartment in San Francisco.
My fear of the unknown was softened due to my busy schedule
and the joy of checking things off my to-do list, but the concern was
still there. Will this work? Will I be too homesick? How do you make
friends as an adult?
A little over a year later - after exploring all the city has to
offer; hosting countless tours of the Golden Gate Bridge and wine
country; and making lifelong pals - we're asking ourselves a new
set of questions: Is the tech world really just burnout culture?
Probably. Is SF sustainable? Barely. Can we even raise a family
when the cheapest home is a studio for a million bucks? Absolutely
not. So, where do we go and what do we do now?
Our feature story (see pg. 18) highlighting Max Hellmann and
Alex Meiners, founders of the LA-based screen printing business
Family Industries, hits fear of the unknown right on the head. The
two lost their jobs within a week. Talk about "what's next?" But,
instead of leaning into distress, they leaned into what they knew:
screen printing. More than a decade later, they have a booming
shop that has completed 3500-plus live screen printing events for
major corporations around the world.
While I'm not sure how long we'll be in the City by the Bay, just
like Max and Alex I've learned if you lean into
the unknown, you never know where it will
take you.
