8.30.25: The Group Planner

Being the planner in a group chat is like herding cats with commitment issues. You suggest a date, half the people don’t respond, someone else drops a random “Can we do Bali instead?” and suddenly the plan to grab tacos spirals into a month-long debate. Everyone wants to hang out, but no one wants to pick a place. Or time. Or confirm anything. I used to care. Now I just drop a pin and say, “I’ll be here.” If they show up, cool. If not, more tacos for me. Leadership is knowing when to stop asking and start eating.
