## It's building szn
I've been lucky to stay fairly busy with projects through [[Greenhaus]] since my [[24Q4]] "working sabbatical.' I've gotten to do some really interesting data engineering work, build some agents & prompting tools, and help a few companies develop positioning and messaging frameworks.
As this first wave of contracts winds down, I've been thinking a lot more about what comes next. As "working sabbatical" might suggest, this was never meant to be permanent, but rather a strategic decision to step back, survey, and then go deeper in a few areas that I think will define the next phase of GTM work (namely [[product marketing]] and [[RevOps]]).
I've been given an incredible gift of time—time to think, time to learn, time to work—and it's finally feeling like the right moment to find my next big project. I'm splitting time now between fleshing out what a long-term [[Greenhaus]] commitment looks like and interviewing for full-time roles.

With a lot of thinking comes healthy contributions to my idea bank, things like [[Composability will define the next SaaS era]], [[Beating the press]], [[The future of marketing is judgment]] and (an extremely on brand) [[GTM as emergent hyperobjects]] have been taking up brainspace lately. There's a theme pulling through all of them, which is, in as many words, "[[the future of saas|What is the future of SaaS go-to-market?]]." If these pieces prognosticate and diagnose, it's more practical and applied companion is in development as [[mindgarden/garden/seeds/Layered GTM Systems|Layered GTM Systems]].
### Other happenings
This spring [[Sisilia]]'s short film [[Skips a Generation]] was picked up by the KC Film Festival, and it was so cool to see my better half on the big screen. She was also cast as Janet in Rocky Horror for the upcoming Roxy season, so we're excited to watch her bring this dream role to life in the fall.
I've been spending a lot of early mornings out on the farm, building a 40' high tunnel, tilling, prepping, covering, planting crops and conservation trees. We're hopeful for a productive garden this year. The irony of building a giant greenhouse at the same time I'm building [[Greenhaus]] is not lost on me. Count yourselves lucky that I haven't succumbed to torturing an overwrought metaphor.
In the world of fitness I'm trying out some new strategies that will hopefully allow me to keep rocking and rolling without any major injuries or setbacks. I'm learning the hard way that aging means taking time off, much to my chagrin and the delight of [[Woody]], and [[Gordo]] who are reaping all the extra walkies.
