Hello!
I just double-checked Slack access for a bunch of people over the past week. I know a couple people were returning to Slack, so accounts should all be reactivated. If you didn't get back into Slack, please let me know, and I'll be able to get that resolved!

I'm super bad at writing, so I wrote something! If you are curious of how many people listen to It's Super Effective, and how I (think) grew that audience, I put some words together!
No streams this weekend, as planned, since TwitchCon is here. I’ll be gone Thursday to Sunday, BUT I have two streams this weekend planned thanks to Intel and StreamElements.
Both these streams start at 12PM Pacific / 2PM Central / 3PM Eastern.
