I have a fun red sweatshirt that I like to wear to just rattle people. The sweatshirt says “done”. I bought this many years ago when I lived in Los Angeles. When you wear the shirt, most people are thrown by it. They wonder what you are “done” […]
Thinking. Thinking. Thinking. What to do now? Moving on? Catching my breath. So many new horizons. Considering which horizons to look at and take a step towards. Looking for a new song. A new dance step. Twirling. Nothing is assured. But here’s the deal. Be brave enough to […]
I’ve been in healthcare for over 15 years in one way or another. Actually, if I think about it maybe closer to two decades. I’ve seen a lot of changes. One constant has been the need for to have to speak up on behalf of others who need […]
I love ttqvel. I love immersinh myself within new norms. I love eating new foods. Travel is learning, catharsis and a precious gift. Not everyone can do it or do it often. Which is why certain television shows are so important. I was rewatching one of Anthony Bourdain’s […]
