I have spent years figuring out how to get more done in a day. But in 2020, I discovered there is room for both peace and productivity, even in the same day.

Tap into the Team’s Inner GPS
Have you ever looked up at the sky and marveled at the majestic V-formation of Canada Geese as they migrate south for the winter? Their journey is a feat of navigation and a deeply inspiring example of working together. So how on earth do they do it?
All the Feelings of Fall
This morning I woke up with a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach that nothing will ever be the same. I go through this every year when I feel the temperature drop and the leaves start to fall. It brings out a feeling of melancholy that I just can’t seem to shake.

Savour the seasons. Even winter!
It had been a long stressful week. I was satisfied with the outcome of the work that I had done, but it was definitely time for some rest. The couch was calling to me; I had a long list of binge-worthy shows just waiting to be watched.
TRUST, TEAMS…and a little more LOVE
The challenging thing about human beings is that we are utterly complicated creatures. Sometimes we don’t even know ourselves, yet we are expected to operate on a high level in teams with other people who are also trying to figure themselves out.
