What’s Work & Worth?
Work & Worth is a newsletter focused on:
reorienting our relationship to work
separating our worth from work
remembering what has brought us to this point in late-stage capitalism
reimagining our lives without our collective obsession with work
remaking the world with this newfound information (or rather messy discussions about this idea)
Who am I?
My name is Cristin Downs, and I’m a possibilitarian. Also an executive coach, theatrical thinker, and producer.
I’m an activator and technician, a storyteller and truth speaker, a connector and bridge builder. I have an aversion to bullshit, am incredibly transparent and authentic, and have absolutely zero poker face. I believe we are not judged by what we say or think but by what we do, and I am energized by possibility. I also believe, as the great Desiree Adaway always says, that we get free together. We decide what’s next.
On a less intense note, I’m a bookworm (mysteries and YA are my faves), newsie, pizza / wine / ice cream / brunch lover, budding comedian (self-proclaimed), and former theatre professional with a decade + in the wings. It should be noted that I believe expletives are illustrative and effective. Mama to a small mischief maker, I hold down the fort in the Netherlands with my husband Mike and a small pack of furry friends.

What’s going to happen here?
You’ll get access to essays about the state of work and explorations of how we got where we are in regard to the state of work, podcast interviews with other experts and my clients on their individual work, and what I call “practical tactics” – how to content.
I also do live videos and host monthly events.
Every subscriber gets access to the posts, monthly events, and community conversation.
