We’ve all been caught saying “humans are so predictable” at some point in our lives. Why is that? When we say it, do we mean what we say? Assuming we do, we may be able to peel beneath the layers and observe just how patterned humans really are. This insight can help us when we […]

Today was one of those days when I jokingly asked the barista if I could have a shot of something (other than espresso). She replied that she had a flask in her backpack (if I liked Whiskey). She smiled. And I smiled wondering what grain of truth was in that flask. I ordered a cherry […]

We definitely live in a culture where more is more. I am grappling with a tough decision for my family relating to a fancy schmancy club that would be fantastic to join. Not because I am a beautiful person or want to be with the beautiful people. But because it offers some amenities that I […]

There is this whole other world, brought to us by the select few of movers and shakers who can navigate a high stakes game of investment funding. As someone who has had some exposure to this world, I can tell you it’s quite intimidating. First off, there is this culturally relaxed disposition of an elite class […]

Sometimes the best ideas present themselves in a shower. But sometimes, it happens right outside of the shower. My 6-year old came in to speak to me whilst I was showering and noticed water coming between the glass door seam. She left and came back with a large bath mat and two hand towels. As I was […]
