I just exited a 7 year season of single parenting. It started with a divorce, and ended in a second marriage. I learned so much during that time, enjoyed the gift of closeness with my children, being able to lavish them with all my attention. I treasure those years with just the three of us -- my two children and me. Now the dynamic has shifted, as we welcomed two more bonus children, and a husband and father.
Not that it's anyone's business, but I did not make a decision to alter my face and have surgery on my eyes.

No matter the size of the wave or its intensity, the beach gladly accepts each one as an offering from the sea. I smile and feel the rise of gratitude in my body for this lesson and for my teacher, the seashore. Without any fanfare, the sea meets the land and the message is simple: welcome everything.

New treatments for Alzheimer's are on the horizon and the pipeline of drugs in development is more diverse than it's ever been.
When most vehicle manufacturers expect autonomous cars to be on the market by 2019 ― with more than 10 million on roads in 2020 ― one would expect people to start considering the various issues driverless cars create.
Silence = Death. This is perhaps the single most important equation I learned in medical school. It was not taught to me by my professors, but rather by heroes of the early years in the fight against HIV/AIDS. The now iconic image of resistance--a pink triangle--was taken from the Nazi...
By: Shira Atkins We asked some of our favorite yoga teachers to share their secret formulas for staying calm and centered. Maybe you've been to yoga class and your nose perks up wistfully when your teacher walks by. Or perhaps you've gotten...
Many political observers feel that Trump's voter "ceiling" is 40 percent of the electorate. Who are these voters?
Some consider the flight to their destination as an extension of their vacation, whereas others despise it. Despite our differences, so many of us share the same coping mechanisms for life at 36,000 feet...
If I'm ever known for anything when I die, it'll probably be the amount of times I've told entrepreneurs that they cannot waste time trying to do everything, and that the best way to grow is to eliminate, delegate, and automate.
My colleague, John Larsen, and I have worked with dozens of Olympic sponsors on crisis preparedness and response over the last two decades. And while the Rio Olympics have focused much attention state of preparation, it is easy to forget about the extraordinary behind-the-scenes efforts around crisis and security planning.
I realize that two years of marriage hardly makes me an expert. But here's my inexpert suggestion for how you can contribute to building a more unified world: if you're seeking a spouse, consider getting to know people unlike you.
The way we currently use abuse our own energy consumption puts a massive strain on our planet's natural resources. This is a problem and the only solution is changing the way we consume energy.

Can Vietnam talk some sense into North Korea, and in so doing make itself the go-to country in Asia for diplomatic fixes? There are those in Hanoi, and quite a few scattered across the foreign policy establishment, who think so.
Is your week filled with meetings, huddles, stand-ups and project group get-togethers? Staff meetings, feedback meetings, customer meetings? For many of us, we spend so much of our work week speaking and listening and working toward consensus, that we have little or no time to do the work that needs to be done by ourselves, in deep thought.
I am downright giddy with sunshine streaming out of my pores. Seriously, if you are in a funk, I would steer clear of me as I will unintentionally, but relentlessly, annoy you in my deliriously euphoric stupor.
I spend a lot of time in forums and groups for writers. I want to know what makes them tick. I want to learn about their struggles so I can help them. I want to explore the landscape.
