When Joanna Coles suddenly announced her departure from the chief content officer role she originated at Hearst this past fall, Kate Lewis immediately came to my mind as her successor. Three business days later, it was announced that Kate would ascend to the role. Now with a few months her belt, Kali Hays with WWD talked with Kate about the past, present and future of print and digital media. Here are my favorite highlights.

That Was Then, This Is Now
Maybe I don’t wonder how you and I compare to each other as much as I wonder how his current feelings for me compare to the feelings he once had for you.
Brunch Talk
….She told me over dinner Thursday — you never want to think that you’re the cuter one in a couple. You want people to tell you that, but you don’t want to think that yourself.
Moving forward
It’s in my nature to be ecstatic for personal change, but I also worry about making a mistake. I repeat “I’m nervous, but I’m excited” when talking to others. However, I should only be saying “I’m excited for this opportunity.”
Wake-Up Call Wednesday: Your Story
“It takes work to show up for your own story and show up for the dream and vision you have for yourself.

Sitting at the Table
I told myself a couple of months ago, you just have to do better. This is what 2015 is about for you. Last week for the first time I felt back in center with one-part of who I am by working on this.

I wanted teachers to affirm that my hard work was noticed, not for validation asContinue reading “Who We Are. How We Feel. How We React.”

We weren’t promised a yellow brick road when we graduated, but no one warned us the streets were so tough againstContinue reading “No Yellow Brick Road”
Too Cute for You
Tonight I thought about the last few years of dating and my professional life. At many points along the way we get the feeling of “I can’t” when going for whatever or whomever we want.
