When your high school coach tries to sum you up in a few words, "Alyssa likes to talk," it can feel like a punchline. But what if that label was actually the throughline?

In this Field Note, Alyssa shares the story behind her umbrella brand, Alyssa Likes to Talk - a home for every conversation, project, and lesson that’s shaped how she builds, leads, and learns.

She reflects on:

• The moment “Alyssa likes to talk” stopped being embarrassing and started making sense
• Why she’s never fit neatly into one lane (and why that’s the point)
• How all her worlds (podcasts, consulting, software, and story-gathering) connect through curiosity and conversation
