When High Performance Costs Too Much
Work was never meant to cost people their health. Yet for years, the highest performers have often been those most skilled at ignoring their own limits. Endurance was rewarded. Exhaustion was normalized. Burnout became a private problem rather than a systemic one. A Turning Point In many ways, 2025 marked a turning point for workplace mental […]

Reflection with Purpose: The Year-End Retrospective
Ah, here we are. That beautifully awkward time of year when we’re straddling the mad dash to wrap up projects and the slow drift into the holiday weeks. As we enter the final stretch, many of us face the same recurring question: How should I use this time? Will you take advantage of the quiet […]
