Multi-Tasking and Stress
Do you pride yourself on your ability to multi-task? I know I do. I’ve even shared it as one of my top strengths in an interview. The problem is, that very “strength” contributes negatively to my stress level. The brain cannot really multi-task. It can only focus on one thing at a time. Our multi-tasking […]
Say Whatever You Want and Still Keep Your Job!
Working with corporate employees I often hear, ” I really wanted to say this but of coarse I couldn’t.” So where do all those unsaid words go? For some people they end up feeling like a lump in the throat, as one of my client’s experienced. Others of us tuck our unsaid words and emotions […]

Are You Living in Comfortable Misery?
