Did you know that weekend trips can actually be better for your mood than a long vacation? That’s right. Experts say that escaping the normalized chaos of modern society over a long weekend to places like the mountains, a lake, or a cabin in the woods can be more beneficial than extended stays. Psychotherapist and author Jonathan Alpert says, “From an emotional and well-being perspective, smaller vacations pack a bigger punch than longer ones.” He advises that “a small amount of planning and time away can reap large rewards." What kind of rewards you might ask? Let’s take a look at the seven k ..read more

Upon Dead Ends: A Transformative Poem by Jessie Padgett   I'm walking down a new path not yet taken; reaching a dead end.  Thinking of how, in life, I tend to arrive at many of these unforeseen dead ends, I now welcome the impasse.    Like the repeating cycles of lessons not yet learned, dead ends have their own patterns to be acknowledged.    Instead of repeating a cycle, we are meant to learn. We turn around and walk the path already taken, but from a new perspective.    Cycles and dead ends always have something to teach us.   Upon dead ends, we ..read more

 In society today, CEOs are met with mixed reactions. While some respond to the title with promise and aspiration, others associate executive positions with greed and control, harkening back to the silhouetted, spindly-fingered figure distant from their employees, operating in the shadows, exempt from company culture. The Manifestor’s Guide (TMG) has proposed to change this perception with the development of a transparent executive leadership team, committed to work-life balance, purpose-driven action, and shared-prosperity. Allowing freedom for our employees to happily, healthily, and we ..read more

In the same way a writer staring at a blank sheet of paper, unable to materialize solutions gets “writer’s block,” we can also experience “life blocks” of all kinds; cognitive limits that keep us from expanding into our most powerful selves. In The Socratic Way Part 1, we discussed the difference between Socratic and didactic thinking. Didactic thought, which most of us are taught, programs us to seek answers in order to execute what we’re being told to do within existing frameworks. While this works perfectly for a society of drones meant to execute tasks for monolithic institutions, it doesn ..read more

You wake up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat. It takes a moment to catch your breath. After all, you were just being chased through your childhood home by...well you’re not exactly sure by what...but you were definitely being chased through your childhood home by something, and for some reason, your feet kept sticking to the floor as it was closing in! Well, come to think of it, it wasn’t exactly your childhood home, but it was “playing” your childhood home in the dream. Ah, of course...it was just another dream.   Sound familiar? While the details may vary, most of us have ..read more

Have you ever felt your full potential only to be met with the walls of real-world limitations? Throughout my career I’ve noted the people caught in the struggle cycle most often say “I feel like I wasn’t set up for success.” The implication here is that it was another person's responsibility to lay the groundwork for their own personal success. For members of the Millennial and Gen-Z generations, sitting with this reality while feeling their full potential deep down, accompanied by a culture of forming opinions on everything and everyone they encounter becomes dizzying, even crippling, leavin ..read more
