Holly Hoffman is the founder of WorkLoveLife, a site of musings, rants, diatribes and commentary on corporate and start-up life, personal finances, personal relationships and love, health and wellness, spirituality, and whatever else life decides to throw at the driven Millennial generation.
When she’s not posting on WorkLoveLife or submitting way-too-long comments on other people’s sites, Holly works a standard 8-5 while pursuing a host of entrepreneurial endeavors, including uSavvy, a cross-generational IT consultancy for people who are afraid of computers and the Internet. She also works part-time at a café learning the trade she one day hopes to make a dream-come-true – owning her own coffee bar.
Aside from pursuing career and business success, Holly loves to run and train for races, practices yoga, loves health food, and yearns to strike a balance between earthly enjoyment and spiritual enlightenment. Personal motto: “It is better to travel well than to arrive.”

Some days you may feel like it’s too much, there’s too much to do, too many steps before you get where you want to be. That’s OK. You just have to take one step. Not two, not tomorrow or in a month, but one step today.
It’s not really news to anybody that I’m not exactly passionate about my 8-5 job. But if you ask my coworkers, my boss, and the associates who rely on my work on a daily basis how I am doing, they’ll tell you I rock my job. Because I do. Anyway.
How does a single young woman with little time on her hands go about dating pretty much for the first time in her life because she’s been a serial monogamist since high school? You sign up for an online dating site and tell everyone you’re doing it as research for your blog.

I don’t know if it’s my age, or the situation I found myself in, but […]
I never thought I’d run an IT company in a million years. It was further from my mind as a career option than pursuing medicine or flying airplanes. OK, maybe not airplanes. At any rate, my little IT consultancy began by chance. Over the past four years or so I have been involved in the Internet […]

I am an Early Adopter caught in the salary of an entry level worker. It is an unfortunate state of affairs when you – who subscribes to TechCrunch, an avid reader of Robert Scoble and Guy Kawasaki, the only person you know with a feed aggregator, the only one in her town who seems to […]
Meetings, e-mail alerts, busy work… these are the most frequently addressed productivity killers. I have read books and found work-arounds for all of them. What I can’t get around, what kills my […]
I’m an alcoholic. Seriously. I am a 26-year-old, middle-class, young professional… alcoholic.
I’d debated whether or not to publish this, but it’s a big part of who I am and how I got where I am today. I’m lucky. Most people don’t figure it out at my age. Most people take 20 years to ruin their […]
