MegaMaker - Thinking about my brain

I'm headed out on (another!) trip, this time for a wedding.

Before I leave, I wanted to send you three things.

Draft: I'm 44, and my brain is getting worse 🧠🔥

I'm working on this draft for a future newsletter/blog post.

If you have thoughts, please comment on the Google Doc or reply to my email.
