Meaningful Work
Meaning is the why of what we do, the significance of our work, the point, what makes what we do worthwhile – big stuff.

The Four Hurdles Women Face At Work
Women are held to unreasonable standards of behavior; penalized for being too much while at the same time told that we’re not enough; judged for being moms (or not); and often pit ourselves against each other. Yikes! Surely there’s something we can do!
Self-Care
Caring for yourself is not self-indulgent, it’s essential to your well-being. Regardless of what you’re told by the patriarchy, self-care is a way of life, not a product you can buy.
Words Matter
The words we use shape the impressions, attitudes and opinions we hold about women. According to new research, language also impacts the jobs we apply for, the amount of money we earn and the way we’re evaluated at work. In other words–language holds women back.
Mind Your Manners…Or Not
Do you abide by the social code at work or do you balk at such conventions? Do you see manners as a construct developed by the patriarchy or a set of rules that we should happily abide by? Are you offended by the need to be a “good girl,” or do you see the value of manners in maintaining social order?
When Your Coworker is Sad
Coworkers who are grieving, sad and experiencing trauma might appear scattered, distand, disorganized, short tempered, anxious, intense and teary. So how do we create more ease, meaning and joy at work by showing up and supporting them, and ourselves?
Interviews
Interviews are your first change to make a lasting impression. What you say, what you wear, and how (or whether) you answer the questions can make or break your chances at landing that dream job. You don’t want to miss this master class!
Your Beliefs Shape the Way You Experience the World
What you decide is “true” in the world shapes how you experience every single situation you encounter. It also impacts your happiness, health and your job. New research helps explain why this is true; why we interpret situations in such vastly different ways; AND how to change your outlook.
Workplace Mental Health Takes Center Stage
The US Surgeon General has called-out workplace mental health and wellness as a public health priority! Woot Woot! And a huge shout out to their new Framework for workplace mental health and well-being!
Putting Your Imagination to Work
Creative activities such as painting, writing, drawing wood-working, playing music, cooking and landscaping will make you healthier, reduce stress, help you problem solve and boost your happiness. Creativity also appears to make you more generous toward others and easier to be around!
