Get to know Lindsay
What was your first job?
At 15, I landed my first job at Pacific Sunwear. I quickly realized that my biggest customer was me. It turns out that an employee discount is just a way to make your entire paycheck disappear into hoodies and jeans. Life lesson learned: working retail is great, but so is leaving the store with more cash than clothes.
What’s the most impactful piece of advice you’ve received?
Recently, while watching me juggle a million tasks, my 9-year-old looked at me and said, “Mom, just live in the moment.” It’s easy to say but harder to do, but she’s onto something. As the world spins faster, slow down and embrace life like a 9-year-old: fully present and ready for whatever comes next.
What’s your all-time favorite movie, TV show, or book?
Friday Night Lights will forever be in my rotation because nothing beats small-town drama mixed with football and life lessons. Plus, who wouldn’t want Coach Taylor’s pep talks on speed dial? Clear eyes, full hearts, can’t lose.
