Podcasts have emerged as a popular medium, offering a vast array of topics to choose from.

Starting over. What a scary thought. We’ve been through so much already. Isn’t it all supposed to be easier now? After all, the kids are grown, the house may be paid for. Perhaps you’ve even retired from full time work. But come to think of it, that’s a lot of change happening at a time […]
It’s hard to be open to constructive criticism. No one likes to hear what they could do better or differently. But it’s so critical that we learn how to listen. As part of any self-discovery and personal development journey. We simply have to work on our ability to seek out and accept helpful feedback from […]
Through self-discovery, we can get to know ourselves better, unlock our true potential and live a meaningful and fulfilling life more closely aligned to our core values and priorities. One of the most powerful self-discovery tools is journaling. Somehow, when we put pen to paper, we are more likely to unleash our thoughts, emotions, and […]
Abraham Maslow, humanist psychologist, coined the term self-actualization in the 1950s.

As women, we often find ourselves juggling multiple responsibilities and we “forget” to take the time to focus on ourselves.

Many of us can sometimes feel stuck in our jobs, unsure of what our next move should be. Perhaps we feel like we’re just going through the motions, lacking a sense of purpose or fulfillment. When feelings like this begin to crop up, it may be time to invest some energy into self-discovery at work. […]
Of the many factors that contribute to personal growth, self-awareness is one of the most important. It’s true that for many, personal growth is about achieving specific monetary goals, milestones, or accomplishments, and there’s no doubt that having specific aspirations can be an effective motivator. But the more impactful aspects of personal growth often involve […]
Personal development is the process of enhancing skills, knowledge, and abilities, and learning new things that help us be more effective in our work and personal life.

A personal mission statement can help you achieve these aspirations. You may be more familiar with mission statements developed by organizations or companies. Corporations formulate […]
Finding your life's purpose sounds like a daunting task. But once you do it, wow, life just completely changes. So let's break it down and try some easy things to get us all on the right track.
It is not unusual to feel pressure to be grateful. We know others have more serious problems and challenges; we know there are parts of the world where our standard of living would be considered truly exceptional, even with whatever shortcomings we experience day to day. We should be thankful and remember always that we […]
