But as we’d all agree, our eyebrows undergo quite a few changes as we get older – everything from brow hairs getting sparse and patchy to receding fronts and tails to hairs getting longer and more unruly and turning grey and white. But the good news is that eyebrows are the one th ..read more

Life is a journey made in stages. Each one presents its own unique challenges, moments of joy and opportunities to grow. Our ancestors began exploring the idea that life is a series of stages millennia ago, the Hindu rishis (sages) being among the first to do so. Since then, the idea has been explored through the different systems of understanding that we have developed across the ages. In our era, it is psychologists such as Erik Erikson who have perhaps done the most to shape our thinking on it. There’s no question that, from the wide-eyed innocence of childhood to the focused pursuit of kn ..read more

If you’re reading this, chances are you have some doubts about whether you can lose weight or not. The women I work with have a desire to lose weight, but when we look closer, we discover they don’t really believe they can do it. And this belief is sabotaging them every step of the way. But the damage doesn’t stop there. If you’re like many women I know, You’ve put a lot of weight (pun intended) on reaching a certain number on the scale. For example, you might believe that nobody would want to be in a relationship with you unless you reach your “goal” weight. Or you can’t be successful in you ..read more

Raising a child is an incredible journey filled with joy, challenges, and decisions. But it’s also complicated. We all want the best for our children, and as parents that means ensuring they stay on the right path by course correcting when necessary.

I previously wrote about voluntourism here, touching on some of the necessary considerations. If voluntourism is something you’ve decided you’re passionate about, doing it with your grandchildren can be a way to not only enjoy skip-gen travel with them, but also pass along important values about “giving back.” Many who work in this travel niche agree that the most successful short-term voluntourism centers around conservation, animals and wildlife, or sports coaching. Especially if you are traveling with teen or young adult grandchildren, there are many opportunities in these areas. If you ar ..read more
