Next weekend I will be presenting my knowledge of growth mindset as part of the Victoria Dabrowski Schmidt Workplace & Development Symposium for the 3rd year in a row. This year I will be part of a workshop entitled "Virtual Panel – Building Resiliency During Times of Uncertainty." It is FREE to attend any or all parts of the workshop, all you have to do is register. I hope to see you there!

There are countless opportunities to learn and grow at this year’s three-day symposium hosted virtually by the AADC.

Yesterday I was on a boat and saw I was reminded of what greatness she stands for:
“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
Immigrants founded this country. Let us never forget that.

"I'm not old, but I'm gettin' a whole lot older every day." (Bonus points if you know they song I'm quoting.)

I just looked at this blog post and had to share it. I try to live my life in a way that I won't regret my choices, but we all have those memories of "man, I wish I did (or didn't) do that!" I think this is a great list, worth sharing, and should serve as a reminder that you don't want to get to the end of your life wishing you had done things differently. Take that solo vacation, compliment a stranger, make that complicated recipe--do the things! Enjoy your life and live it to the fullest!

Those Top 37 Things You’ll Regret When You’re Old. 1. Not traveling when you had the chance. Traveling becomes infinitely harder the older you get, especially if you have a family and need to pay the way for three-plus people instead of just yourself. 2. Not learning another language. You’ll k...

I think this is a great piece (it references a Christian god, but can really be extrapolated to any concept of god). I’ve had several conversations with people about all troubles in the world and wanting to fix them. It is not possible to fix all the problems in the word, nor is it possible to worry about them. It’s exhausting and overwhelming to think and worry about everything in the world. It is more important to what you can, where you can. I actively choose to not keep up with world news or politics because it is so stressful and sad at time. Instead, I focus my efforts and donations to my local community, donating to a couple charities, being on an executive board and advocating for mental health awareness and accessibility to affordable services. Just because I don’t actively talk about or worry about various issues doesn’t mean I don’t care. It means I choose to take care of my mental health and sanity and only focus on a few manageable things. I hope this article helps you realize and do the same.

Those nights when you lie awake, restless and tossing and turning, your mind churning over a future that is uncertain and unknown. Those days when your heart is heavy and your spirit is sorrowful while you imagine what will befall you or that person you love. There isn’t a human being alive who do...

This is interesting! We’ve always known eating fruits and vegetables was good for us. This research suggests that eating them raw has a positive impact on mental health.

Researchers have discovered raw fruit and vegetables may be better for your mental health than cooked, canned and processed fruit and vegetables.
