Why do you care about your politics – can you express your beliefs without attacking the other side? What do you expect to see from your representatives and what are you unhappy with? How do you expect the administration to move the dial in the right way? Although it can be difficult expressing an ideal […]

#RPCL Log Date February 9, 2017: #BeingHuman #Apathy
While at the genius bar, I spoke to Ian who was restoring my iPhone and we discussed the apathy of millennials. “It’s funny”, he said while staring off in the distance, “I am not sure why I have apathy. I have been working since I was 12 and I like my work. I just don’t […]
#RPCL Log Date February 8, 2017: #BeingHuman #Heal
What is one positive word you can say first thing in the morning, and hold on to for the rest of the day? My word is hope. I live it, breathe it, own it. It gets me through some of the toughest days lately. It helps to have a word that gives me more reasons to care, to […]

I was catching up with my sister by phone, when she told me a funny story about her teenager. At school, her daughter was called upon to solve a math problem in front of class. As she got up to walk to the chalk board, she started to say under her breath, “I am one with […]
#RPCL Log Date February 2, 2017: #BeingHuman #EmotionAndLogic #headheartgut
The other day a friend posted that she couldn’t stop crying when enraged about the recent administration’s ban on refugees from seven muslim countries. So I messaged her this: let emotion enrage you and logic guide you. Integrate. Easier said than done. I can shut down the fountain of emotions a little more every day to focus […]
#RPCL Log Date February 1, 2017: #BeingHuman #ModernHuman
What does it mean to be a modern human today? How do we keep up with fast paced progress while maintaing our sanity? With chaotic messaging and low trust, we need some help navigating our lives. It’s hard enough to integrate identity and human truths in the world with social media information overload. From our recent election, there is […]

Bill Maher recently said this on a viral Youtube video that was shared on FB: liberals want an apology for E V E R Y T H I N G and conservatives will apologize for N O T H I N G. Feels true. In which case, we have the mean case of the blues and we […]
#RPCL Log Date January 28, 2017: #BeingHuman #Fearfactor
I remember listening to NPR a while back about why some people can handle horror films (benign masochism or escapism) and others cannot. I’m not someone who is good with scary movies, and yet I’m pretty good at handling unpredictable risk in my life. But the fear factor we’re hearing every day is not sustainable. Now that the […]
#RPCL Log Date January 27, 2017: #BeingHuman #BuildBridgesNotWalls
At Covert Leadership, we started a campaign on reunification in the U.S. to tear down walls between people we see everyday. And yet Tuesday’s news headline stated this new administration has plans to build a wall on the southern border. We understand the need to quell the influx of people, but a wall? Your mission, if you choose to accept it: […]

Ever have the case of the blahs? Like, every morning after reading or listening to the news? It’s happening to me. Here’s what I did about it this morning. From the very top of my lungs, almost like a primal scream, I sung in the shower. I chose a song that would amp me up for […]
