Twitter Spotlight: Sabina Hitchen

How could I not feature someone whose professional title is Chief Excitement Officer?! That’s Sabina aka @SabinaKnows.

CEO

Sabina, co-founder of Tin Shingle, is my Brooklyn neighbor. I admire her enthusiasm for entrepreneurship – hers and that of others. Here’s your chance to get to know Sabina.

OneChicklette: Your favorite qualities in a love interest

@SabinaKnows: I suppose I’ll just describe my husband – His passion for life, sense of direction and purpose, shared values, sense of humor, intellect, a desire to keep growing and improving himself, someone who supports my entrepreneurial, lots of love and affection – I’m a hugger and a hand holder – and he should also be able to tolerate when I “take my brain to the spa” from time to time, AKA watch crappy reality shows.

OneChicklette: Your chief characteristic (one word)

@SabinaKnows: Moxie. I’ve always been a bit of a determined firecracker.

OneChicklette: We like Moxie around here.

OneChicklette: What you appreciate most in your friends

@SabinaKnows: They make me feel safe being myself and sharing that with them. Most of my closest friends also were patiently there as I figured out who that self was…Mutual support of each other’s dreams, ambitions and lives as opposed to jealousy or competition. They are also all pretty hilarious.

OneChicklette: Your idea of happiness

@SabinaKnows: Spending time somewhere warm where I could bounce between time lazing around reading and relaxing with my husband and time spent creating and writing with no pressure, no interruptions and no obligations.

OneChicklette: Your idea of misery

@SabinaKnows: A job that sucks away my life force, lacks inspiration or forces me to wear business suits. That, and purposeless meetings.

OneChicklette: Your favorite fictional character

@SabinaKnows: Anne of Green Gables

OneChicklette: Your favorite thing to eat, and also to drink

@SabinaKnows: Eat: Anything my Polish mom cooks. The fact that she’s all the way in Michigan means she now coaches me through her recipes via FaceTime but it’s not the same.

Drink: Water, infused with whatever I have around the house, as well as really good red wine.

OneChicklette: Five tangible things you can’t live without

@SabinaKnows: iPhone, meditation, YouTube (you can find anything from tech advice to inspirational TED Talks – how can you not be addicted), iPad (I’m reading multiple books on it right now), Dohm Original Sound Conditioner to block out the sound of Brooklyn while I sleep or work.

OneChicklette: What’s the number one item on your bucket list? (question via @SaraLang)

@SabinaKnows: At the moment, spending the summer traveling through the Loire Valley, Paris and the French Riviera and doing the opposite of roughing it the entire time.

@OneChicklette: Who do you know via social media that you’re dying to meet in real life? (this question came via @Tammy)

@SabinaKnows: At the moment of writing this – YOU of course. Beyond that I’ll have to say @courtyforrest @coachjennlee and @brycegruber.

OneChicklette: SOON! And I’ve met Courtney. She’s terrific.

@OneChicklette: How many days do you think you would you go without speaking a single word, if you were being paid $100,000 a day for every consecutive day you didn’t speak? (this amazing question came via @BrianSpaeth)

@SabinaKnows: I’d love to say ten days to make it to a million but just thinking about that makes me anxious, and I find it impossible not to talk to or say hello to basically, the everyone.

OneChicklette: via @AndiLavs What was the last kind thing you did?

@SabinaKnows: I’m a big package & letter sender and just today was at the post office sending goodies to my sister (@miraptacin), and my mom (who just kicked cancer’s ass).

OneChicklette: A question I should ask the next participant

@SabinaKnows: What apps do you rely on the most to make your life more outstanding?

OneChicklette: Random shout out
