Your emails should sound as capable as you are.
Email Lemonade is the refreshingly practical guide to email communication in the workplace — giving you the advantage your career deserves.
When you write an email, are you focused on what you want to say — or how it will be received?
Most of us default to the first. We’re overwhelmed. We’re multitasking. We fire off messages quickly and move on. We go on autopilot.
And that's when we send email lemons - messages that unintentionally damage relationships and hold us back.
Email Lemonade challenges this pattern. You’ll learn how to serve up clarity and refreshment instead of frustration — writing emails that strengthen relationships and help you move work (and your career) forward.
Hi, I’m Cheryl.
Years ago, I witnessed a silly “email lemon” incident in the office, and I got a little mad. It wasn't anything unusual for a corporate office, but I was struck by the inefficiency and rudeness I was witnessing. And I remember thinking, Wait a second… email is such a critical communication skill that we use every day. Why don’t we get taught this stuff?
That question stuck with me.
I don’t believe capable people should be held back simply because no one taught them how to approach email thoughtfully. So I’ve been on a mission to fill that gap.
Over the course of my career, I’ve worked across diverse corporate environments and built business relationships on six continents. I hold an MBA from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University and have taught Business Communications at the college level, as well as brought my Email Lemonade approach to businesses and universities alike.
Because of that experience, everything I share is grounded in the real world — and designed to help your emails reflect how capable you already are.
