Writing’s hard. Give help. And ask for it.

Minna Jung July 16, 2022

Communications: From practice to belief

Minna Jung May 31, 2022

I’ve been struggling with belief, lately—what I believe to be true, and what I believe can be true. And I was worried that this could present a problem for me in my chosen line of work, which is communications for …

Random thoughts about philanthropy

Minna Jung April 26, 2022

This month, I can’t seem to herd my thoughts into order, so I am just going to shake my brain free of random thoughts I’ve been having about philanthropy—a field I’ve worked in and around for most of my professional …

Taking the first steps towards change

Minna Jung March 10, 2022

What’s the message?

Minna Jung December 2, 2021

Us, the audience

Minna Jung October 26, 2021

I read a lot of things, and I watch a lot of things, and I am not particularly discriminating in my consumption. I read books, magazines, newspapers, gossip columns, advice columns; I watch television, films, and also a shit-ton of …

The good and the bad of sameness

Minna Jung September 21, 2021

Groundhog Day is one of my very favorite movies of all time. I love the central themes at the heart of it—that if you are stuck in a seemingly endless cycle of living the same experience over and over again, …

The professional satisfaction of being a part of something good

Minna Jung August 31, 2021

I missed my monthly posting on this here blog because of: well, everything. So much work, so much transition, lots of guests in our house (which yay! missed this during the pandemic, but wow! lots of meals to cook), and …
