How to Think Like a CEO for Your Future Success

Head prefect, the girl that travelled continents to study in Edinburgh at 21 with no family or friends in this new country, go getter, always smiling, outgoing. As I lay on my bed this person I just described was a complete stranger to me and I wondered if I’d ever recognise her again. This was exactly 10 years ago, triggered by an acute bout of cystic acne and a prolonged period of isolation.

Summer camp offers a rare opportunity for kids to build social skills and form long-lasting friendships. This promise is particularly attractive to parents of neurodivergent kids, for whom camp may offer a clean social slate.Indeed, a recent survey during the ADDitude webinar, "Choosing the Best Summer Camps for Your ADHD Child: A Guide for Parents," revealed that 62% of caregivers said "making and spending time with friends" was a top priority for their child's summer season.Here are attendees' full responses to our poll question: "When you think about your child's summer plans, what are your top 3 priorities?"Read on for strategies to help your child connect with fellow campers, plus answers to your top questions about helping your child navigate social challenges at camp, provided by Ryan Wexelblatt, LCSW, ADHD-CCSP, owner and director of Trip Camp.Most children with ADHD do not need to attend a specialized camp program.

Raising teenagers is much different than dealing with your kids in their toddler and adolescent years. Suddenly, they want more freedom, and they are pushing you away more, but at the end of the day, they still need you more than ever.When my daughter turned 13, a shudder of fear went through my entire body. However, since she turned 13, we are closer than ever.

Before I had kids, I knew that sometimes kids say hurtful things. In my mind, I thought when I had kids that whatever they would say would just fly off my back, but now that I am a parent, I know sometimes their words cut deep.When your child says something hurtful to you, it can be hard to not respond. They may say something so hurtful that you want to cry.

Disability … disabled… chronically ill … challenged …

One of the most frustrating things in the world is to ask your child a question, and for them to respond with a lie. Of course, kids exaggerate and tell little white lies, but when it surpasses white lies and moves into the pathological territory, it becomes a new problem entirely.Oftentimes, lying is one of those things that can be hard to navigate. We want to reprimand them, but we also don’t want to handle the situation incorrectly and make it worse.

Humans are hardwired to avoid and escape pain.As such, we seek the fastest, most efficient route to avoid and escape. We seek short-term fixes in lieu of long-term solutions and inner peace.When our lives are unfulfilling, when we know we’re not filling our full potential, when we ask, “Is this all there is?” or “Aren’t I meant for more?”, we’re experiencing pain. Our soul’s deepest desire is to create meaning; it’s intrinsic to us. One of the ways we create meaning is to pursue our life’s calling, fueled by our mission. I delineate the two as:A Life’s Calling is the task (writing, speaking, teaching, composing, sculpting, etc.).The mission is the why (serving something more significant than ourselves).Combined, they are the energy that shoots us out of bed each morning and that we’re willing to put it all on the line for. The pain we experience, the angst, the frustration, the disillusionment, the sense of betrayal (I did all the things I was supposed to do, WTF?), and the emptiness are products of not having a calling and mission or having a calling and mission – but being paralyzed by fear and unable to take action. Because our life’s calling, the reason we’re here is terrifying. It flies in the face of how our brains are wired.

It’s time for a quick story about life, gratitude, and inner strength…Once upon a time there was a woman in her mid-sixties who noticed that she had lived her entire life in the same small town. And although she had spent decades enthusiastically dreaming about traveling and seeing the world, she had never taken a single step to make this dream a reality.Finally, she woke up on the morning of her 65th birthday and decided that now was the time! She sold all of her possessions except for some essential items she needed, packed these items into a backpack, and began her journey out into the world.

It seems like a gracious and genuine gesture for leaders in executive, senior, or supervisory roles everywhere. Extending a policy to their team that invites them to knock on their door to express concerns at any time they feel compelled to still feels like a forward-thinking servant leadership practice, and that’s probably why it’s still so popular.It’s a check-in-the-box tactic that makes the leader seem engaged, concerned, and willing to listen. Perhaps that’s true and the leader genuinely is all of those things.

Even though setting intentions is vital in manifesting what you want, it is only half the work. This is evidenced by how not everyone who sets intentions attains them. Many people set intentions, but few live the intentions they set.

Q: My child has been diagnosed with dyslexia and ADHD. How do I talk to them about both conditions?ADHD and dyslexia commonly appear together and are highly treatable.

Before I became a mother, when I saw a spoiled child at the supermarket, pitching a fit over a candy bar, screaming and yelling until their parents gave in, much like a hostage negotiator, I always said “that will never be me.” Fast-forward a few years, and now here I am, dealing with my spoiled child.Don’t get me wrong, I love my child, but one of the most embarrassing things in the world is a public tantrum. Not only is it embarrassing, but it is also very overstimulating, so before it is all said and done, I honestly am so tempted to just give in. If I am being honest, I did give in for a while, until someone made a statement that floored me.

“That’s not fair!” “You can’t make me!” “You are the MEANEST mom ever!” If this sounds familiar, you are not alone.Back talking is one of the biggest parenting complaints among parents, and for good reason. There is nothing more frustrating than trying to get your child to listen to you, only for them to respond with back talk. When this happens, you may have a lot of things you want to say.

When I say that I’ve had a chronic pain syndrome for nine years, people usually nod as though they understand. In reality, they have no clue what it means. How could they if they don’t also live with intractable pain, day after day?

It’s no coincidence that your energy is highest when your spiritual health is well or when you’re intimate with someone. Your spiritual health is closely linked to your sexuality and your deepest, and innermost desires. Whether you’re getting down with your partner or having fun solo, your deepest sexual desires affect your spirit. 

A metaphor is not an ornament. It’s a necessary lens of perception that allows us to experience and think about ourselves and the world more clearly. Metaphors have a way of relating to us in a profound way, by clarifying immense life lessons and truths in fairly minimal space.Angel and I have shared the following metaphors and corresponding stories with our students, coaching clients, newsletter subscribers, and conference attendees dozens of times over the past 15 years, and we usually get thanked for doing so.

There are many debates surrounding the idea of working in our leisure time. Most people believe it’s purely harmful and ruins our mental health. Seriously, if I get a dollar every time I hear or read about how terrible it is to work on your day off, I’d be rich by now.

yoga and meditation pro couldn’t be further from the truth (a hard pill to swallow, considering I’m a wellness writer and a native of the land of green juice, healers, and crystals, AKA LA). Sure, I can do Pilates in my sleep and I’ve got my shut-eye schedule down to a science (humble brag), but when it comes to practicing poses and getting my mind to quietly sit still for minutes at a time, I’ve got my work cut out for me. So when I first heard about a sound bath, I took it as a challenge to up my yoga and meditation game.

overthink, which can cause them to doubt you or your connection.NOTE: If you want to learn what women think about in their relationships, we address their desires separately.Most men think about sex, as they’re known for their healthy libidos. However, an article from Ohio State University debunks these theories, as they’ve found women are just as apt to have a healthy sex drive.Still, men think about things a lot regarding their relationships; some thoughts are healthy, while others are destructive.

Superfoods: a buzzword that’s been tossed around a lot over the past couple of years. But what exactly is a superfood? According to registered dietitian Beth Czerwony, a superfood “helps promote health by increasing your immune function and decreasing your chance of disease progression.” As of today, there is no exact criteria for which foods are classified as superfoods, but it goes without saying that there are some foods higher in vitamins and minerals than others (looking at you, french fries). While I fully believe foods should not be labeled as “good” or “bad,” I’m also always on the hunt for how to cook meals that I not only love, but that are also filled with nutrient-dense foods that support my long-term health goals.

Black-owned businesses that inspire inclusion, connection, and innovation. And because systemic racism is the cause of many health issues and a direct determinant of health, we’ve rounded up a list of female, Black-owned wellness brands that have carved out spaces for healing and celebration alike for People of Color.

In recent years, there has been a significant increase in discourse surrounding neurodiversity and inclusion in the workplace. With greater speed and scale than ever before, companies are incorporating neuro-inclusion into their diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) strategies, recognizing the value that neurodivergent team members can bring to the table. While this is a positive development, there is still a need for a more nuanced understanding of the experiences of individuals on the autism spectrum, and a comprehensive view of how it can present in working individuals.

smoothies, Pilates, and trends like mouth taping, red light therapy, and cold plunges first come to mind while a self-pleasure protocol and regular orgasms probably fall low on that list. But tending to your sexual health, desires, and sexuality is a form of self-care, just as much as therapy, journaling, and getting quality Zzzs (more on that to come).Thankfully, 2023 is the year of normalizing sex (seeing it as an essential part of our overall well-being) and sexual inclusivity (AKA de-stigmatizing sexuality). Case in point: the range of sexual wellness products (think: vibrators, lubes, toys) that you’ll be able to shop in-store alongside your beauty must-haves, feminine products, and groceries in one fell swoop.

Life is short they say!  Eat the dessert first they say!  Well, there is some truth to this as we only have a certain amount of time/energy and as I reference in my book “heartbeats” in this life.  The good news is we have the power to decide where, when and how we spend this energy.Many of us may think of the holidays with fantasies of sugar plum fairies, ginger bread cookies and a house filled with the smell of fresh baked bread.  In reality, however, it can be stressful.  The demands of your time whether it be to purchase the perfect gift, put up the perfect decorations or participate in festivities may leave you with less than the desirable holiday cheer.  So how can you protect your precious time/energy and heartbeats this holiday season?  Listed below are 6 ways to recalibrate and focus where you spend your energy this holiday season:Heartbeat Bank Account:·        Picture your precious time and energy as heartbeats in a bank.  We are so careful with where and how we spend our money, why are we not doing the same with our precious heartbeats?  Pay close attention this holiday season to where, with whom and how you spend them.  Before committing to anything, ask yourself “is this a worthy transaction of my heartbeats?”  Let the answer guide your decisions on how you spend your precious time.Best For Test:·        This is an important guiding tool I use with my clients often which can be reinforced during the holiday season.  Pay close attention to who you surround yourself with.  Yes, there are some family gatherings and work event you may need to go to, however, for the other areas in your life, before you say yes to spending time with people, as yourself these questions:o   Do these people bring out the best in

Performing these motions daily helps increase your flexibility because it elongates the muscles. Most experts recommend doing stretches for at least 10-30 seconds to reap the full benefits of the exercise. Having greater flexibility may not seem that important, but it helps reduce joint stiffness and mobility issues as you age.

I’ve been talking a lot about identity on here lately. Identity is a huge part of my story. I’ve learned to embrace my identity as transgender and queer, but I’ve also learned to embrace my identity as neurodivergent, disabled, and mentally ill. I’m also a trauma survivor, and while not all of these things are who I am, they certainly make up who I am. I don’t go up to random people and say “Hi I’m trans and autistic and by the way did you know I have bipolar and I’m disabled and oh I also have complex PTSD.” OK, well maybe once upon a time I did do that (I do struggle with social cues after all), but I’ve learned since to realize that there’s more to me than these things.

It means you need to stop loving people who aren’t ready to love you. If you’re left out, subtly insulted, mindlessly forgotten about or easily disregarded by the people you spend the most time with, you’re doing yourself an incredible disservice by continuing to offer your energy and life to them.The truth is that you are not for everyone, and everyone is not for you. That’s what makes it so special when you do find the few people with whom you have a genuine friendship, love or relationship: you’ll know how precious it is because you’ve experienced what it isn’t.But the longer you spend trying to force someone to love you when they aren’t capable, the longer you’re robbing yourself of that very connection.

Pets are beloved members of many households around the world. From cats and dogs to birds, reptiles, and even small mammals like hamsters or guinea pigs, these companions can bring joy and love into our lives in a way that nothing else can. Not only do they provide us with unconditional support throughout all stages of life, but studies have also shown that having pets can help improve mental health as well as physical fitness. Whether you’re looking for a furry friend to keep you company during long days at home or just need something to cuddle up with on cold nights, adopting a pet may be one of the best decisions you ever make.
