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.

Just this past week, I noted that there are times when we have to not get pulled into other people’s madness. In the workplace, in particular, one has to not get caught in other people’s drama. And as a boss, you often have to set an example […]
Don’t move or breathe Let the silence be roaring Don’t tiptoe, just be still Let the moon talk and confess Quiet the rumbling mind Seal the inquisitive lips The sun will rise, perhaps The sun will set, per chance The tides will ebb and flow Gritted teeth wrapped […]
I am not a driver. No, really. I have never driven a car. I have never had a driver’s license and I am ok with that. I have however been on many long road trips including five across the United States and one through a large part of […]
