  • Principles of the Unreasonable: 7 Traits of Top Innovators

    Innovation has always had a public relations problem. After something works, we romanticize it. We tell neat stories about visionary founders and breakthrough moments and pretend the path was logical all along. Yet while those same innovators were in the thick of trying to build something new, the world rarely called them brilliant. More often…

  • Doing what you love should work

    For a long time, I thought I had to choose. Sound familiar? It’s the lie we’re programmed to believe. The Matrix version of business that says joy and money don’t mix. That meaning and prosperity are somehow mutually exclusive. That being of service means being broke — and that building wealth means selling your soul.…

Here’s an excerpt from the article – ChatGPT may be eroding critical thinking skills: “Does ChatGPT harm critical thinking abilities? A new study from researchers at MIT’s Media Lab has returned…

    After years of coaching high-achieving women, my friend and colleague Dr. Marcia Reynolds started noticing something troubling: many of her clients were jumping jobs regularly, defining and redefining their relationship with the marketplace, constantly questioning their roles. Dubbing her subjects “wander women,” Marcia found that what these women most wanted was to find peace of…

    For her 13th birthday on the 12 of June 1942, Anne Frank received a book she had shown her father in a shop window a few days earlier. Although it was an autograph book, bound with red-and-white checkered cloth and with a small lock on the front, Frank decided she would use it as a…

  • I am rich and didn’t know it!

    I did not win the Lotto and my rich uncle did not die and leave me all his money. I’ve been really blessed with great friends. Each friend has a story to tell about how we met and many would claim that “they know me long time” (said with a trini accent of course! :))…
