Great product leaders have a gift for simplifying, and then executing relentlessly. Small details matter, but you can only hone the edges when you know what you’re trying to build. Everyone in the company can get on board when there’s clarity and confidence in the roadmap.

Today, we remember #InternetExplorer, the browser we were using at the IRS until this year. Not because it was the best, but because Congress has failed to meaningfully fund the agency’s modernization for decades. A 27-year old browser used to navigate a 60-year old database.

A truly dark day in America with the news reports that the Supreme Court has voted to overturn Roe v. Wade. This year, I signed the Freedom of Reproductive Choice Act – codifying a woman's right to choose into state law. New Jersey will not go backwards on reproductive rights.

TL;DR Insurance companies treat therapists like shit, which de-incentivizes quality clinicians from accepting it and exacerbates healthcare inequality due to decreased access to care. In the end, the people who need and want support and make less than $100k/yr suffer most.
