I remember when I was young and enthralled by the movie Karate Kid. I loved the idea of a little old Asian guy being this wise martial arts teacher in my life, teaching me to slay with my awesome newly found skills. Well that dream never happened back then. But when I look at my acupuncturist, […]

As we amble through our lives and look for meaning, we mostly treat our sense of purpose like a sugar high. When the endorphins are on, we feel great. We feel valued and rewarded. We feel smug. And when it’s over, we are back to ambling and not living intentionally. The short lived sugar rush […]

More than ever, we need to get a handle on how we show up in this world. It’s bad enough that freedom of speech has turned into freedom of lies and deceit, with high doses of brainwashing from extremists. I boil when I think about the idealogical and uneducated crazy that exists in this world. […]

Courage. It’s one of those words that occasionally solicit my middle finger. I get tired and want to just do nothing or sit with netflix binge watching of White Collar or other mind-candy shows so I can forget my stress. But what I need is courage to get through all of the loss of 2017. […]

It was good to catch up with an old friend and work colleague while in London. We had a brief conversation where we reminisced about our account in Paris, and all of the PM work we used to do, and then shifted to our roles today. He confessed that he doesn’t get into the details […]

I’ve been told at the end of every departure or break up “you’ll be fine”. My gut response is: “Well thanks a bleeping lot. That’s just what I need after a dose of rejection – that I’m bleeping strong and will be bleeping fine. Well bleep you”. And then I sigh and think, well now […]

I am watching some friends experience some pretty big break ups. And I’m finding it surprising that it’s mostly the women who are leaving, on their own terms. I suppose it’s from watching society slowly cave in on women at a time when we feel we’re better than that, better than society’s definition of our […]

Doubt constantly slips in between the cracks as I navigate my career choices. It doesn’t help that I don’t have clarity from cohorts and it’s super easy to just put your head down and coast to avoid conflict. But that’s not really going to help me get through this… whatever it is. So your mission […]

Sometimes we need an excuse to open a new door in our lives. We don’t always know why we need to find the way out, so we may paint a picture that looks good or write a story in our heads that sounds good and we eventually share it in order to find and open […]

As I try to make sense of my world and find order, I see chaos. But it’s not the chaos in my life that overwhelms me. What overwhelms me is how people function within that chaos. What drives them. How fear turns beautiful chaos into a dark abyss. What makes me sad as I try to […]
