Something is happening to this generation of Gen Xers who are burning out. Many of them are friends who are working in large companies, with high executive titles, and whose companies are undergoing restructuring. For their next career step, they don’t want to step up. They want to step down. Up requires more energy, time […]

Are you overwhelmed with your every day? Trying to keep your head above the water line? Me, too. I need a planner. And I am not talking about the journal kind (as much as I love @moleskine). I’m taking about the human kind. Someone who can swoop in and organize my future, starting now. Your […]

I’ve been pummeled by the overwhelming amount of work in my life right now. Some of it is so new that it’s requiring an immense amount of time and energy. And when I’m overwhelmed, and need a reprieve, I seek guilty pleasures in my life. Being with my monkeys and reading summer pulp fiction, watching my […]

Your mission, if you choose to accept it: Don’t be afraid to love deeply. Even if you experience pain and sorrow, or you are afraid of the hurt, there is nothing like being completely open, vulnerable and human. Just remember to use your intuition so you are directing your emotions toward those who are light, not […]

There are days when I feel like I simply cannot accomplish anything. And then there are those when I cross off so many things from my list, that my head whirls from excitement. Thankfully today was one of the latter. Because I am so generally bad at celebrating the little victories, after getting done with my last task I decided to […]

It’s so hard to resist social media. Especially when we are consumed by the constant craziness of this administration. Your mission, if you choose to accept it: Don’t let the angry bug bite. Do everything in your power to find your inner calm and remember, this too shall pass.

When fatigue hits, it’s like a small parasite that eventually takes over your entire faculties. I am so tired these past few days. In part because of work. In part because of stress from life, loss, money and overall trying to keep my shit together. But every day, every single day, I remind myself to […]

The other day I was getting waxed (yes, that’s a very human thing to do) and my aesthetician was asking if I got the closure I needed at a recent memorial. Truthfully, I haven’t. I told her that, I’m only now realizing why. I haven’t actually made time to mourn. And maybe that’s why I […]

So, maybe you don’t have fame and fortune. Maybe you feel like you are in the Beatle’s lyrics: He’s a real nowhere man Sitting in his nowhere land Making all his nowhere plans for nobody Doesn’t have a point of view Knows not where he’s going to Isn’t he a bit like you and me? Nowhere […]
