There is this idea I return to all the time, talk about all the time, that comes from a quote by one of our late elders, Eddie Benton Banai. He said that to live an Anishinaabe life, to live according to our Seven Grandfather teachings, is to live a life where every footstep becomes a prayer. Isn’t that beautiful? You know how when you walk through... See more

More than just content: building community in the graduate classroom - Nature Biotechnology
When we invest in different parts of ourselves, research shows that we’re better equipped to deal with life’s inevitable challenges. For example, in one study, Dr. Patricia Linville found that subjects with a more differentiated idea of themselves—what she calls having greater “self-complexity”—were less prone to depression and physical illnesses f...

Simone Stolzoff • How to Find Clarity When You’re at a Career Crossroads
About half of my friends kind of hate their jobs, so they're moderately unhappy most of the time, but never unhappy enough to leave. This is the mediocrity trap : situations that are bad-but-not-too-bad keep you forever in their orbit because they never inspire the frustration it takes to achieve escape velocity.

Adam Mastroianni • So You Wanna De-Bog Yourself
I’ve come to realize: being a generalist isn’t something we choose. It’s something inherently in our nature — it’s how we see the world. We can think of this approach as a ‘cognitive preference’.
Generalist Power
It’s humbling to remember: we go knocking all the time. Yes, there’s always someone we can help, but there’s always someone whose help we need. The worst thing that can happen in life is not putting your room—your life—on hold to help other people. The worst thing is when you’ve been so successful at ignoring the knocks that people stop knocking on... See more
Catherine Shannon • The fantasy of independence
I define a leader as anyone who takes responsibility for finding the potential in people and processes, and who has the courage to develop that potential.

a favorite in our household 💕 baby girl’s birthday is this weekend and it was time to update her birthday face banner. I got a lot of questions about how we make these and my answer is always as loose as the others.. sky is *always* the limit. but here’s the basics! supplies: -cardstock or thick paper -different paper/material. Basically anything in the scrap bin! -a couple of these papers are my wrapping paper (coming soon!) -tacky glue (not hot glue) -twine, string or ribbon -any extras like glitter, poms, tissue paper, crepe paper etc. -I like to choose pictures from every age (starting at the very beginning!) and print their faces to a good size to fit as a banner. I printed two of her faces to one 8.5x11” page, so they’re all relatively close in size. -Cut out party hats! This is where you can go as subtle or adventurous as you want. I always go the latter, shocker there. Then glue to the head of each face. -space out each cut out evenly to your liking, then secure the faces with string/ribbon/twine on the back. I use two strands to make it extra secure. And leave a lot of extra on the ends so you can add on over time 🎀
