Globalization, technology, and policies favouring the wealthy have significantly reshaped the economic landscape for the middle class. These changes have made it increasingly difficult to maintain financial stability, underscoring the need for effective financial strategies. With jobs being outsourced and technology replacing traditional roles, income inequality has become the new norm. The wealthy have gained […]
I discovered I suffer from ‘Selective Hearing.’ I booked a hearing appointment with an audiologist sometime back, and the doctor asked why I was there. I shared that my husband stated that I might be hearing impaired. We went through the entire test, and when I came out with perfect hearing, the doctor indicated that […]
Through my Life’s journey, I’ve come to a profound realization: Life isn’t something that happens to us; it’s something that happens for us. There’s a deep contrast between our perceived reality and accountability. When encountering challenging individuals or situations, we can learn to see this as a possibility to confront and overcome our inner darkness […]
I’m fed up with CAPTCHA and having to verify I am a human being. It feels like I’m in an episode of the Twilight Zone. Having to repeatedly demonstrate that I’m not a robot to some entity that stands for “Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart” is exhausting. As an […]
I was thinking the other day how much I’d like to be a toddler and behave like our granddaughter. I don’t mean being a kid again; I mean having the freedom to indulge in a tantrum freely and feeling entirely resolved in those actions, exclusively when I’m pissed. Recently, our youngest experienced a meltdown at […]
I know well the negative implications that can come with AI, but I’d be lying if I wasn’t excited about how it can serve women’s health issues. It’s about solutions; we’re not as far down the road as we should be in that area. Far too many dis-eases affect women our age, and there isn’t […]
It’s a new year, and I’m late out of the gate with no resolutions. No diets, as that is not a wagon I ever hop on. I do not foresee any separation, never mind divorce on the horizon, with my dear friends, chocolate and bread. We are intimate lifetime partners. I will continue to use […]
It’s not that I despise Christmas, but I do the consumerism around it. The season’s essence is magical, but it’s somehow become a production. I was raised to celebrate Christmas as the feast of St. Nicholas—an authentic dude with a real history. Santa Claus wasn’t part of my narrative. There was a lot of church […]
Reality TV is not me, but I have been groovin’ on The Golden Bachelor. It’s not the leading man who has me enamoured; it’s the powerhouse of women and their clandestine connections that steal the spotlight. The manes of platinum and grey hair have sparkled throughout the program. Sure, I get it. It’s all scripted, […]
Each morning, I wake up and engage in a daily practice of meditation and breathing exercises. I quiet and balance my energies, only to get into my car and immediately cross paths with a colossal asshole who shows up out of nowhere and blows all that morning effort to shit. I know it’s a test, […]
