I find that we are excellent at preaching diversity. Yet when it comes to creating diverse environments, we have a hard time following through. Sure, we can argue that it’s hard to find it the right mix of people who check boxes. And there’s truth in that statement. Or we have a group of sameness with […]

#RPCL Log Date June 22, 2017 #BeingHuman #ReallyThinkAboutIt
When you were a kid, how often were you told by a teacher, parent or guardian, “c’mon, think about it…” That then led to a full out lecture on a topic to which you probably didn’t give a second thought? Have you broken that pattern? Are you introspective, reflective, willing to dig deeper? Your mission, if you choose […]

Back in December, I decided to blog and post a mission daily in 2017. This journey began as a personal pledge to process our human fallibility and to share it with the world (which started at n=50). Today we’ve almost hit 200 followers, which is more than when we started. Every day we hope to add to our […]

Today marks a very big milestone in the life of a loved one. And this month has been a blur, what with losing my friend to cancer on the 12th, and hitting so many project deadlines at once before the school year comes to an end for my kids. But truthfully, other than reckoning with death, […]
#RPCL Log Date June 16, 2017: #BeingHuman #AngerVortex
Your mission, if you choose to accept it: Don’t get sucked into the anger-vortex. It will only turn you into a troll and unproductive member of society. Best to put your positive lens back on and find ways to impact your community and the world, large or small.
#RPCL Log Date June 15, 2017: #BeingHuman #ThinkTwice
There are days when I just want to scream at people. How can folks be so caught up in their own con? They are fabricating truths to create division, resulting in a lot of anger and pain. I am appalled by the he-who-cannot-be-named conspiracy theorist that wants to spread lies about a school massacre, stating it was […]
#RPCL Log Date June 14, 2017: #BeingHuman #LiftUpOthers #leadership
I am obsessed with how we define leadership in life and in corporate america. Your mission, if you choose to accept it: Remember that your leadership is about lifting up others, not lifting up yourself.

The other day I was sitting with my friend who is dying. I know it sounds dramatic, and that’s not intended. There’s just no nice way of putting it. So it’s best to be direct about something we all want to hide from. Except I’m faced with this reality, that I need to accompany her […]
