Talk To Your Kids
Last weekend, I organised and hosted my Dad's 70th birthday party. It wasn't a huge affair: most of his co-workers are overseas or in a differnt state, and would be hosting their own birthday dinners for him local to them, and sadly a lot of Dad's family are only able to attend parties in Heaven.

Put Some Lipstick on...
Regardless of where I was or how I felt, one thing always remained constant. As reliable as time passing, as anticipated as a sunrise, its predictability was unwavering. It, I suspect, existed only in my life, and influenced me in all aspects of my life.

Halloween Vibes to DIY for
I am writing this series as a countdown to Halloween. It's my favorite holiday. Halloween has it all! Hayrides. Scary movies. Haunted houses. Trick or treat. Pumpkin spice and everything nice. If I can manage to pull it off, I'll be writing something with a spooky spin for one vocal community each week in October.

Ways I stay sober. Content Warning.
So I am what people would refer to as a Poly user. Meaning I've struggled with many different substances throughout my adult life. It all started with me getting a long bout of kidney stones and having to have lots of surgeries for them in a short period of time. The first pill my Urologist ever prescribed me was Dilaudid 4 mg, if you know anything about pain medication you will know these are very strong, along-side them he also gave me Oxycodone 10 mg. I was 19 years old when I started taking them, and I remember his words clear as day "You're going to become dependent on them, but don't worry, we will wean you off."

Your New Year Already Sucks
It’s my most favorite time of the year. And, no, I am not referring to Christmas, even though it just passed. The beginning of a new year is ripe with memes of failure. If you follow any of the popular success coaches or influential promoters of how to obtain wealth, you will know that failure is a key component of success. Because failure is not the opposite of success. Failure is good, great even. However, it’s only beneficial if you learn from it. Apply it. Adapt and revise. After all, doing the same thing over and over expecting different result is the definition of insanity. While I am not a big proponent of “New Year’s Resolutions,” I do thoroughly believe in having goals and direction.

Mismanaging Your Emotions At Work Leads To Occupational Burn Out
People being forced to fake how they feel in the work place is one of the main causes of occupational burn out. That’s according to new research by Emlyon Business School. Researchers have discovered that the surface acting creates a form of exhaustion which drains the ability an employee possesses to be able to organise themselves and take part in everyday work-related tasks. This effects an organisation’s ability to function well and cater for it’s own staff and customers. This creates a huge impact on the ability each individual has to manage their own cognitive capacity as well as eroding their sense of authenticity. This puts a huge impact on team trust and makes engaging in leadership more difficult.

Interested in Being a Barista? Here’s What to Expect Your First Month
Working in a café becomes an easy and enjoyable job once you learn the basics. At first, everything can feel overwhelming, but after making drinks consistently for about a month, most of it turns into muscle memory. Your hands start moving before you think about it. It slowly becomes automatic, and confidence builds faster than you expect.

If I don't laugh… I'll go crazy
First paragraph: A morning unfit for human use Saeed woke up feeling like someone had restarted him while he was asleep but forgot to reset the settings. The alarm rang, wouldn't stop, and turned into a war cry. Saeed got up and slapped it. The alarm fell, the battery flew out, and his phone said, "Yes, sir, I'm turning off completely."

Day One Is Too Late
The first week at a new job used to be about paperwork, awkward introductions, and the slow realization that no one had actually prepared for the new hire’s arrival. The desk might be empty, the login credentials delayed, the training materials outdated... Everyone involved would shrug and say it was just how things were done. But the cost of that approach, which typically translates into lost momentum, frustration, and the quiet erosion of trust, was always there, even if it went unmeasured.
