Reflections on the Art of Being Human at Work.

The End of Suffering Is Not the End of Pain What is my suffering doing, if I do not attend to it? How is it shaping the way I show up with others? Where is it narrowing my capacity to see clearly, to listen, to remain open?
Executive Stress: Understanding & Preventing CEO Burnout Overcoming burnout includes looking closely at what is driving you to exhaustion. While it’s often a mix of C-suite stressors and personal tendencies that amplify burnout, the antidote to burnout is looking closely at what got you here.
When the Roller Coaster Slows Down There comes a time in the entrepreneurial journey when the stomach no longer flips at every upturn, when the adrenaline no longer screams in your veins like it used to. You may look around, wondering what has changed—and the startling answer is: you have.
Turning to Wonder: A Skill to Utilize Often Turning to wonder can be an additive layer to well-thought-out planning and strategizing. Replace worry with wonder for a fresh outlook.
Rough Patches & Rock Bottom Days In the pits of despair, the only thing to do is to get through the day in whatever way feels most comfortable, supportive, and kind to yourself. When you pass through despair, you may discover parts of yourself that you hadn’t known before. 
True Justice and the Bones of Belonging Empathy, justice, and inclusion…all have their places in the skeleton of human belonging. True justice, then, is answering that longing to belong with love.
From Whence You Come How can we make conscious choices about the ways we have been complicit in, and benefitted from, a world we say we don’t want to exist, a world in which too many feel they don’t belong?
When Your Soul Comes To Take You Back Learning to build awareness of our nervous system also allows us to learn its wisdom and lean into it when the going gets tough, and the emotional currents are rough. Here, we learn to return to our very self so that we can ask: Where am I, now? Who am I now? What do I need to return to?
Bigger Than a Bread Box For those with a fix-it tendency, consider asking: Who or what are you fixing? What fuels the fixing? What are you feeling when you’re fixing? What might the fixing be trying to fix about how you're feeling?
