I love to travel, try new foods, ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. A psychologist by training trying to bring a little common sense to it all.
Possibilities. What a lovely word. Sometimes we are too focused on barriers, slights, and denials. But possibilities are so much more of a base to build from. It can take a bit of hard nudging to get people to hone in and believe in possibilities. But it can […]
A few days ago I noted my end-of-the-year tradition of selecting a word for the coming year. The word is meant to motivate or frame what is to come. I really enjoyed the year in which I selected the word “joy”. I continously reminded myself on varying situations […]
