Sometimes life happens to us. Most times we blame others for our misfortunes. The crazy thing about blaming others is that it’s basically a knee jerk reaction that’s become our default any time something goes wrong. The problem is we’re usually not aware of this. I believe someone said that life is 1% of what […]

We are creatures of community. We need to be around other people. I don’t think that was more evident than these past couple of years where we were forced to socially distance from others. With that change, people struggled. A lot of changes happened in my life. Right now, I’m still on the journey to […]

Growing up I always wanted to be superhero. We’re human right? We’re not supposed to have any type of superpowers, so that dream kind of dies in childhood. What if I told you we did have a superpower. A power that not a lot of people actually use. It’s called intuition. I think the reason […]

I feel like I’m in a Brene Brown era of life. Just gobbling up the content. Shame comes with a negative connotation, deservingly so. It’s a. hard emotion to master because it’s an emotion that tells us that we are not enough. That enough is so diverse. We are not good enough, cute enough, or […]

This was the first time reading this book even though the first edition came out 10 years ago. I had to puck up the 10th anniversary because I’m such a fan of Brene Brown. I agree with her research, and I’m still trying to implement it even though it’s so hard. No one said the […]

Our to-do lists are kind of getting ridiculous. It’s like we have something to do, but before we get it down we add something else to the list because we’re so productive. It feels more like a hamster wheel. It’s not even about getting things done anymore. It’s the recognition of making it happen and […]

You know how I feel about comparisons. A lot of comparisons happen based on where we are in comparison to someone else at a certain time. For instance, a lot of my friends are either married, getting married, or already have a couple kids. I’m still happily single. We do it every day though. Some […]

There are types of people. Someone who continues to learn, and someone who decides learning is not a thing after they get a diploma. For me, learning is life. What am I doing if I’m not learning from it? If you don’t like learning, you’ll have a hard time keeping up with technology and norms […]

We come with an inherent bias that we want and maybe even expect other people to be just like us. This becomes a detriment because we then want to influence people to be more like us. Maybe it’s to positively enhance a person’s life. Too often is it due to one being self-righteous while pressuring […]
