women leaders need to be prioritized in the workplace

Why Many Organizations Don’t Prioritize Women’s Leadership and How They Can Start

As women, we have come to understand and acknowledge how being successful at work can be more challenging for us than our male counterparts. Many women must balance their advancing careers with motherhood, healthy relationships, and personal wellness. Women are also more likely to face sexual harassment at the workplace, leading them to remain silent and subservient in their jobs or leave their careers altogether. You may think that in 2021 the vast majority of businesses have a good understanding of the difficulties women face in the workplace but sadly, this is not the case.

Kakeibo: The Art of Financial Mindfulness

By Gina Messina, Ph.D. About a year ago, a friend introduced me to Kakeibo, the Japanese art of budgeting and applying mindfulness to our spending, and I’ve been obsessed ever since. You see, I am a major contributor to our consumeristic culture. I see something shiny and I think I have to have it. A friend jokes that she hates going shopping with me because I have to pick up and touch everything on the shelves (although I’ve eliminated that practice due to COVID!). Like so many of us, I am easily persuaded by marketing tactics.
