Just watched a guy casually steal from a local SF CVS and roll on out with the goods while a CSV employee walked behind him helplessly. Please vote in next week’s elections. This is an embarrassment to a city “building the future.” San Francisco can be so much more than this.

I think many would be surprised to learn how many of the tech founders, entrepreneurs and VC’s they “look up to” are going through or have gone through tremendous mental health issues. I saw a VC unravel in front of me yesterday and no one would ever know in any other context.

The examples of Simone Biles and Noami Osaka are not only inspiring their peers but also folks who are many years their senior. What we are witnessing is a new generation giving permission to older generations who felt they couldn’t say no or set boundaries.

It’s crazy to me that the women in my family ended up marrying incredibly successful men. My mom married my dad, CTO of IBM and Dell. My grandma married my grandpa who ended up getting nominated and serving on the Supreme Court of India. And me — well I found Roy 😂

I don't normally feel the need to share compliments conferred upon me. But this week two people called me inspiring, and it was a reminder that when you listen to your inner voice and follow your own path, the effects are often felt by those around you. Stay focused.

Too many of us “deal” with mental health only when we’re absolutely forced to. Mental health awareness needs to start at the earliest stages - in school and when we’re young.

Mental health does not discriminate based on your wealth, status, or anything else. I feel for anyone that says “I just didn’t want to be alive anymore” because I’ve known far too many people who have felt the same way. Powerfully sad interview.
