There are times when it’s really hard to say no. So we say yes, because no would be rude. Or we think no may jeopardize a friendship or work relationship, and the loyalty is too strong. Your mission, if you choose to accept it: Be intentional and unclutter your commitments. Analyze why you don’t want to […]

#RPCL Log Date March 8, 2017: #BeingHuman #internationalwomensday #youridentityisyours
Today is our day. A day to celebrate girls, daughters, sisters, mothers, aunts, grandmothers, girlfriends and the list goes on. As I reflect on my life and how I want to lead my daughters into this world, I struggle with the desire to completely go full-metal jacket and teach them to kick some proverbial butt. […]
#RPCL Log Date March 5, 2017: #BeingHuman #EveryBitofHopeCounts
What’s your entertainment form of escape? For me it’s marvel or D.C. comics and Science Fiction/Fantasy books and movies. I supposed it’s because there are these completely flawed people who are still capable of saving the day due to some unexpected catalyst in their lives. And it’s one that gives them hope enough to see […]

No matter what the news is, no matter what circumstances we face, we must always remember to be intentional about finding optimism in life, and creating our self-fulfilling journey. Your mission if you choose to accept it: Make the day great. You’re in charge of your everyday.

Everyone wants to be their best in front of a group. You may find that the best speakers are those who have figured out how to be themselves on stage. Confidence is definitely important, but it starts with believing in who you are, in you right of passage to be on stage presenting and in […]

If you are like me, you may be wondering if you can even begin to make a dent in the mammoth problems in our world. Too many things to do to survive. News overload isn’t helping. Your mission if you choose to accept it: Be okay with small strides toward change. Every step can lead to greater impact. Believe […]
#RPCL Log Date March 1: #BeingHuman #StriveForImperfection
Too often we strive for perfection. After the Oscar moments, I read two things in the reactions. Everyone enjoys being a critic. Critic can equal bully. Expectations are too high. Being self-critical can equal putting others down for not achieving perfection. Your mission, if you choose to accept it: Strive for imperfection. First be human, and […]
#RPCL Log Date February 28, 2017: #BeingHuman #BeBalanced
Facebook has become a forum of expression and explosion during the past year of campaign, election and now leadership controversy. More people genuinely believe FB is not healthy and too one-sided. I tend to see it as a way to understand all sides. Yes I use it to vent occasionally. And I also use it to […]
#RPCL Log Date February 27, 2017: #BeingHuman #ApathyOrEmpathy
I was watching this TEDx Talk and was stunned when she cited that empathy has decreased by 40% according to a study by University of Michigan. I didn’t check, but I suppose that means apathy has increased by 40%. As someone who trains on empathy in the workplace, I can tell you it’s somewhat controversial. […]

Why do I like the feeling of retail therapy? It’s almost as if stuff replaces fear. The more we have, the more entitled we feel and the more invincible. It’s like our armor. When I’m down or looking to escape my thoughts, shopping soothes the soul. I enjoy being in public, feeling like I belong to […]
