Look closely at the people doing hard things extraordinarily well, creating change that lasts, building what didn't exist before, turning ambitious ideas into reality, and you'll notice something.
I'm Gabrielle Kohlmeyer, and I've used joy again and again to build with others what seemed impossible and create outcomes that seemed even more impossible.
In Technically Joyful, I bring together leaders, builders, thinkers, and curious humans doing hard, consequential things differently to explore what we're seeing, what we're learning, and what isn't obvious yet and what all of us can use.

Instead of fear as fuel, we'll use curiosity, connection, awe, and the gentle persistence of joy to stay curious longer, connect more dots, and keep going.
