Who is this girl Psychologist mimi

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.

Workplace Contagion: Bleeding Out Emotionally at the Watercooler

By psychologistmimi on April 15, 2013 • ( 3 Comments )

One of my favorite movies is The Shining.  This may result from an inordinate amount of time spent in creepy hotels while traveling for business, often overcome by the urge to scream “Redrum!” as I wait for the elevator in a hotel hall that is a close approximation […]

The Psychology of Prequels: Invoking a Past to Explain Your Actions of Today

By psychologistmimi on April 13, 2013 • ( 8 Comments )

“What’s your prequel Heather?” I am sure you have heard of “do overs” and how we rarely ever get one in life. We may often regret our actions and perhaps as a result we may learn from our mistakes, changing for the better. At times we may just […]

Per Puerto Rican Folklore, I Twisted off my Apple Stem and Now I Must Effervesce

By psychologistmimi on April 8, 2013 • ( Leave a comment )

An apple a day can keep the doctor away? Who hasn’t heard that piece of advice before? Supposedly such sage advice came into vogue back in 1866 originally as a Pembrokeshire proverb that stated: “Eat an apple on going to bed, And you’ll keep the doctor from earning […]

The Month of April has Arrived: Engage in your Own Personal Revolution

By psychologistmimi on April 7, 2013 • ( Leave a comment )

“Isn’t it appropriate that the month of the tax begins with April Fool’s Day and ends with cries of “May Day!”?”  I just got back from Italy, having spent nine full days there gorging myself on carbs, wine and amaretto. Upon arriving home, I looked out my back […]

My name is Luka: I am a four year old eating pizza everyday while trying to charm the Romans

By psychologistmimi on April 5, 2013 • ( 3 Comments )

My name is Luka. L.U.K. A. I’m four years old and I just visited Italy with my mom and dad. They are pretty cool people, although they are an itsy bitsy obsessed with having me experience the world. Perhaps you read my past guest blog entries on Japan […]

The Dancing Dead: Work Hard, Play Hard on the Business Road

By psychologistmimi on April 3, 2013 • ( 1 Comment )

As I was walking past a store in Rome, I came across a storefront that just made me giggle although no one else around me seemed to laugh as well. Granted I have a strange sense of humor. But really, no me else noticed the storefront window?  Here […]

Traveling as a Hispanic-American Woman in Italy: Gnocchi, Pork, Limoncello and Racial Bits Thrown In

By psychologistmimi on April 2, 2013 • ( 13 Comments )

I am going to be upfront with you: it has rained nearly every day that I have been in Italy and I am unapologetically a New Yorker. What does this prefacing mean? I don’t have sun-colored glasses on and I believe with every core of my being New […]

A South Bronx Girl Spending Easter Sunday in Rome: What a Dream Come True

By psychologistmimi on March 30, 2013 • ( 4 Comments )

Growing up in the South Bronx, my favorite catholic celebration was Easter Sunday. It’s not like we would go on an Easter egg hunt through the crack houses or anything like that. I actually never participated in an Easter egg hunt until two years ago when my baby […]

The Four Ps of Late Night Television in Rome: Porn, Priests, Paintings, and Pop Music

By psychologistmimi on March 28, 2013 • ( Leave a comment )

Don’t know why, but the flight out to Rome just seemed to take forever and ever. Couple that feeling with a slew of airport mix-ups (stroller lost; driver gave up; phone just wouldn’t work) that by the time we reached our hotel we were beat. But of course, […]

The Irony of Power Napping at Work: It’s only for the Powerful

By psychologistmimi on March 26, 2013 • ( 4 Comments )

It is 8:24 am. Three cups of coffee, two coke zeros and one bag of gummies and I am still tired.  And I have six meetings to look forward to throughout the day. That is, six meetings that I know of. Who knows how many countless unexpected crazy […]
