Fault or Cause

"That level of responsibility is fucking hard."

To be or to not.

"I now know that I did great work the last 18 months. I know I worked on myself and I grew. I know I accomplished a lot. I know I hid from my keyboard. All the while I was very, incredibly busy, being a victim."

Waiting rooms

If you've seen cable tv I'm sure you have come across a medical drama or two. I'm a huge Grey's Anatomy fan and grew up with my parents watching George Clooney in ER. I always thought the family members sitting in the perfectly lit waiting areas were a dramatization. I too, just like everyone else...

The Future is Equal

I’m going to say it - we’ve officially made being a female a card to “play”. A thing to not open doors but burn them down. A thing to scare HR departments with. A thing we can use not embrace. In case you do not know me or haven’t picked up on my gender from...

The opinions we are still forming can alter our beliefs.    Maslow has always maintained that one of the 5 basic needs of all humans is belongingness. So it’s no surprise...

And then it all changed…

It’s been months, six to be exact, since I sat down and wanted/needed to write. More has changed in those six months than any other six months of my life. I became a mommy.  (HOLY SHIT – I am responsible for the growth and development of another human being!) When I was first introduced to...

The Right Fit

People make all the difference. You can make all the difference. I can’t help but constantly compare and contrast my previous work situation with my current. I’m sure I’ve done this in the past with any job change but I am certain that I’ve never had this type of clarity before. I’ll say nothing negative...
