This week I have been in two cities for two different conferences. As a result, I’ve been in multiple flights this week. Each time I got onto the plane, there was an announcement made as to how there were outlets at each seat for the electronics. Right after […]
I can be quite a contrarian at times. I readily admit it. I like to play devil’s advocate and turn arguments on their head. I do it, just to do it. I am not too sure how I became that way. I am a New Yorker. […]

I am not too sure why we have to, as a society, remind people that everyone is layered. We are not just one thing or the other. In my past life as a facilitator (trainer), I would often ask the session participants to think of five […]
