Three years. A hundred reasons to quit. Best sushi in Seattle.

Three years ago, Sumin opened Kazoku.

I watched the hard parts. The slow nights. The years nobody posts about.

She kept going.

Now she’s a multi-year Best of Snohomish County winner for sushi, Asian cuisine, and service, and 425 Magazine and Seattle Met have both named Kazoku a top spot in the region.

But here’s the one that gets me: her team wants to be there. If you know restaurants, you know that’s the hardest award to win, and nobody hands out a trophy for it.

Congratulations, Sumin. Year three looks good on you. 🍣

Everyone is watching Seattle but Lynnwood is the one quietly changing! Easy accessible light-rail and housing going vertical!

And speaking about vertical housing, one of Lynnwood’s newest residential complexes had their ribbon cutting today. Amazing property with so many amenities we were lucky to tour today!

I went there for the ribbon cutting and left with a plan! All I can say is that something is coming and this is where we’re doing it 👀

More soon! Any guesses?

You don’t need new letters. You just need them in the right order.

I sat down with Megan Gillespie on the Women’s Networking in Olympia | Networking Without The “Ick” The Boss Society Podcast to talk about AI for small business.

Not the hype version. The honest version.

What it’s actually good for. Where it saves you hours. And where it starts flattening the thing that makes your business yours: the human part.

If you’ve been curious but skeptical, this one’s for you.

It’s now up on my resources page along with everything else I’ve got there. Free to listen.

What’s the one task you’d hand off to AI tomorrow if you trusted it?

Yapping!

If you’re on this app, you’ve heard it 400 times this month. I’m over the word. Not over the message. 🎤

Say the thing you’ve been sitting on this week, and tell me below: what buzzword are YOU done with? 👇

PS: I know my face is red like a tomato 🍅! This is what you get if you spend the weekend on the Oregon coast getting your face pounded by the sun, wind, and sand. My eyes look weird too! 🤣 But I don’t care… because guess what: all this will go away and my face will get back to normal!
