He’s so consistent so I’m imagining I probably do look like this. Parenting is hard, y’all.

Tax Person: You’re reporting a $24 charge. What was it for? Me: Critical business infrastructure. Tax Person: Please clarify. Me: Snowmen. Racing. Interactively.

Day 16 of the #AdventCalendarofTshirts, wearing one of my favourite tees. This design came from a call out at a @lonsfwit.bsky.social meet for more female @shirtforce.org designs, and Laetitia absolutely nailed it. #TrailblazerCommunity

Customize Application is a hot mess 🔥 It's not fully documented, complicated and grants too many permissions. As Trailblazers we have a opportunity to make things better by upvoting; 1️⃣ Customize Application should be fully documented bit.ly/documentcust...

As a Community we are stronger together and can achieve incredible things. Automate Salesforce DevOps: Click, Deploy, Done is a great example of this. The idea came from Vanessa Grant and Ishrat Bhatti helped to craft and design the deck.

Glad I chose to stay home. I feel like I would have been so negative had I attended Dreamforce.

Glad I was put on an #Agentforce project so I can now CONFIDENTLY say it is bad. Met with Signature Success architect who could not help me bulk test. Escalated to Testing team who can't help. Escalated now to Agentbuilder team. Go live today. No bulk testing possible. YOLO.

Forgot to post during the #TrailblazerCommunity fun 😅 Just closed down this month’s #BadassBA - loved @richardivan.bsky.social’s take on Design Thinking & User Centric Design. I’ll never look at a Heinz ketchup bottle the same way again! Thanks @vanessa.ba & @peiroll.com!

When you’re at a three day leadership conference and are told you need to be dressed for a workout, but your boyfriend gave you a hickey. I dunno why we hide these things anyway. It just means I’m hot, dammit. I’m mildly embarrassed though.

I saw a job posting from ClifyX and my brain read it as "Clitify" and then I had to get ChatGPT involved and yeah so now I own clitify.com. What should I do with it? There are so many other good slogans too! #adhd

I think a lot about all the vibe coding I would do if I didn't, like, have to pay bills and parent.

My boyfriend brought me to #GenCon this year. Don’t think I’ve ever been to a place with so many men I wouldn’t have sex with. I’ve never had my fidelity so thoroughly untested before!

9:30pm Bedtime: "Mom, I'm bringing these snack tomatoes to my room" Me: "OK as long as they don't rot there." 10pm: "Mom, I'm letting you know I am going downstairs to get tomatoes." Me: "Don't you have some?" 12yo: "I ran out." Me: "...these are the moments they don't prepare you for as a parent."

I posted something on LinkedIn and somebody commented below: “The challenge is the client/user doesn’t always even understand the requirement - they don’t know what they don’t know. If you don’t ask the right questions you end up building something that isn’t future proofed. +

Having two special needs kids, a nanny, after school shit, homeschool shit, and maneuvering a split schedule in the wake of a separation... I've spent literally hours updating multiple goddamned calendars.

Consulting is oftentimes feeling like I am watching a car crash in slow motion and I’m powerless to stop it.

All the conversations here are how #agentforce is a non-starter due to the complicated pricing. “What we are going to have an agent ask when the coffee shop is opening for $2?”

Vanessa Grant @vanessa.ba · 24/07/2025

“So since every conversation with #agentforce comes at a cost, how do we figure out ROI once we identify a use case so we know if it’s worth getting an agent?” “You would find out during testing.” Wait so we’d have to finish development to get to ROI? 🤦‍♀️

Agentforce— striking fear in solution engineers doing live demos for over a year now. (I am watching some Salesforce dude struggle as his agent is like “wut”)

Santa Barbara Dreamin’ hooked me up with a room for the night! Silly me didn’t realize it would be a dorm. The lights kept shutting off automatically and scaring me. I also forgot bath supplies, but I am happy to report Soft Soap did the trick. Still haven’t tried the green button, but tempted.

It's a weird week when a post that I spent all of 3 minutes considering before I hit post (very on brand for me) gets a ton of attention. It all comes from a place of caring so damn much that I want to fight for better even if it makes me a bit vulnerable.

What is the point of having a local Salesforce community group if 99% of your meet ups are virtual?

Vanessa Grant @vanessa.ba · 08/07/2025

It somehow simultaneously feels like the best time and the worst time in my career.

When you meet with your signature success team and go "Oh hey you must be at the Salesforce office because @mikemartin.me and Guilda are behind you!" She was unimpressed.
