I love to travel, try new foods (both simple and "exotic"), ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. Im a big pop culture junkie who isnt afraid to say she loves "In Touch" Magazine! A social marketing expert and psychologist by training who works in the public health field trying to bring a little common sense to it all.
All the world is my television and I like to provide commentary on it.
Cheers
Oh New York. Again, I love this city. Yet, each day lately I shake my head in wonder. Hate crimes against Asians. Feces throwing on the subway. Following people into apartment buildings. People standing braced against the walls on subway platforms. I’m old enough to remember feeling safe […]
The Monday blahs. I didn’t know that existed until I entered the workforce. As a kid, Monday could be cool if you actually looked forward to school and seeing your friends. In college Mondays were hit or miss. As much of everything else at that point in time. […]
This past year, or I suppose last year, I had a moment where I kept expecting my mom to call me. It, of course, couldn’t happen since my mother has been gone for a while. It was an extremely odd feeling to wait for her call. I so […]
She stared at the throngs of tourists. It was a dream of hers, since childhood, to come here. But she didn’t feel grand elation. She kept rubbing her abdomen. The scar was throbbing and getting hotter. Just like the building she felt tilted and out of sorts. She […]
I don’t like gazpacho. I like chicken corn chowder. I love beef stew. I don’t care for chicken noodle. It’s always a part of any cold regimen. Blah. Pumpkin soup can warm ones toes. But this is too literally. Too many words at once. Jumbled and they are […]
Facebook is a social media platform for which many of us can have a love/hate relationship. Many of us have seen or heard of the nefarious teenage girl research. The platform is really not great for body image empowerment. Also, a lot of misinformation has made its way […]
I had a plan for coherency. The plan was shredded by a dog. I had a new path to the winterland. The new path was spat on by cave dweller. Had a new game thought through but no one came to play. They just wanted to poke holes […]
Nothing deep here today. It’s been a long week and its only Tuesday. When Monday alone feels like a week in of itself, there’s no way to feel great therafter. But perhaps there’s a reset button somewhere. Although, at this point I just want the week over. Onwards. […]
Ok. I’m going to write a sentence and it will be pure academic psychology. And, then it won’t make any sense. And, all will be good. Life is what you make of it. Words have different meanings to different ears. But consensus can sometimes be achieved if we […]
Sadly, many people define themselves by their job title or salary. I say sadly because we are all so much more than that. Even as a CEO, I don’t define myself necessarily by that. I readily understand that those things are not ever-lasting. Actually I strongly believe in […]
