Empathy. I see it, read it and I suppose I’m both a student and teacher of empathy as well. Not a master. Is there such a thing? I was thinking today about how having perspective is an important attribute in order to achieve empathy. Your mission to achieve Superhumanness: If you are open to more […]

Some days I’m down on capitalism. But in truth, I’m for it. I know that capitalism is not failing society. People are. And frankly the ones calling the shots are putting self interest in front of societal interest. At a fundamental level, humans fail humans. And then I imagine, what would that look like when […]

Has anyone ever said to you “I quit you”? That sounds weird. And it feels even weirder. Well, I’ve been quit before. And again, recently. Any type of rejection feels that way – even if different phrases are used. Being quit is essentially being dumped, divorced or rejected. Being quit is when someone gives up on […]

I wish I didn’t have to read the news every day. A lot of people say “I don’t read it. I shut it out”. And I understand it. But I just can’t. The biggest reason is, I suppose, to be prepared. By knowing what is being said and done and the reactions of people, I […]

This morning my daughter climbed in to snuggle, but then turned on me and said “you ruined our fort, didn’t you”, as she heard her sister exclaim “our fort” from downstairs. And just like that, happy child turned to angry child. In truth her prediction was wrong this time. But chances were high that I […]

Every day I talk to someone who inspires me. Maybe I’m lucky that way. But I need to, at a time when I’m faltering. I’m not sure what’s next in the big dreamscape I’ve envisioned. I was telling someone last night who gets business and earns a fantastic living, that I just need to get […]

I’m not her. I’m not him. He doesn’t know me. She doesn’t get me. She sees something in me that I don’t see. I’m not what he wants me to be. I imagine these are the voices that go on and on in our children’s heads as they become teenagers and enter adulthood. And this […]

Everyone has a story of hitting an emotional wall. But I’m finding it uncanny when I’m watching it happen to so many amazing people around me. We’re a bunch of smart, driven and talented hot messes. I have to wonder, has this current administration put a damper on our psyche? So this story is one […]

When I stand back and look at our behaviors in the workplace, it’s like a carefully constructed dance where we learn to rely on others to help us learn the moves, and until we do we are totally lost. Have you ever gone to a class where you had no idea what to do? It’s […]

Feedback. It’s a touchy subject in the workplace. If there is no trust, then it doesn’t get to a very productive or even emotionally good place. I’ve come to realize that some people choose to shut out feedback – in which case it could be about not trusting themselves, their response or how they rebound […]
