📝 Editors Note
Tangle is a daily newsletter that picks a major news topic and presents both the “right” and the “left” POV on the subject. The author then gives his own take on the story.
My friend Cole H. recommended Tangle to me. It is a refreshing way to stay informed and also understand arguments from both sides of the aisle. I struggle reading articles from major news outlets and wonder “what is their angle with this story?” A depressing train of thought. It will be interesting to see how media coverage continues to evolve.
Recent topics have been the Ukraine Counteroffensive, Mitch McConnell’s Health, and Vivek Ramaswamy.
Without further ado….
Why Ruffin?
Ruffin is a close friend of my little sister. I’ve been impressed with the investing content and women-centric community she is creating on Linkedin and TikTok.

On the podcast he interviews a range of entrepreneurs from Love Is Blind contestants to Barbara Corocan in order to highlight today's many different avenues for success. As part of the show, Jason also summarizes what's going on in the financial markets and how that might affect you. Super informative and inspirational show on all things money!
Digital
Basically the ClassPass for medical aesthetics. I use this to easily find the best providers and book hydra-facials and other services. The app is live in LA and NY...and coming to more cities soon!
Well-Being
Sweat Yoga & Studio MDR for pilates
These are my go-to studios for great workout classes in Westside Los Angeles!
Drink
By far my favorite natural wine made right outside Santa Barbara, CA in Los Olivos. They make a rose, orange, and red!
Professional
I recently joined this group of all-female angel investors. The community hosts tons of educational sessions on topics like angel investing via your IRA. You get access to deal flow and the opportunity to meet and invest in female-led tech and consumer startups.
Travel
Passalacqua Hotel in Lake Como, Italy
We recently spent a few days at Passalacqua for our honeymoon. It's the new sister hotel to Hotel Tremezzo, another one of my favorite spots. Cafe Da Luciano is a must if you visit!
