Today I finished reading Brene Brown’s “The Gifts of Imperfection.”, a book recommended to me. You see, I am an introvert (if any of my colleagues are reading this – yes, I am an introvert! ). With all that has gone on over the past few years, I was really struggling. Who am I? Why… Read More
Have you ever felt overwhelmed? Busy all the time just ‘living’? Never having time for anything but work and commitments? I have. I do. It is really weird, but just when I started to find myself in that debilitating position of having so much to do and so little time to do it, I picked… Read More
