Work with Me

How will we speak of these years,
When the air carried fear,
And silence filled the streets,
Where laughter once echoed?

Will we whisper of masks like ancient relics,
Fragile shields against an invisible tide,
Or of hands scrubbed raw,
Seeking solace in soap and water?

Perhaps we’ll recall the way time warped—
Days stretched long, yet months vanished,
And we learned to measure life
In the flicker of screens and the weight of absence.

Will we speak of the quiet heroes,
Not only those in scrubs and uniforms,
Bu…

“Every wave is a challenge and an opportunity to find your balance.”

The immense power of the waves reminds us that life’s challenges are inevitable and transformative. Just as surfers prepare themselves to face the unpredictable ocean, we, too, must learn to embrace uncertainty and see each wave as an opportunity for growth. Rather than fearing the forces beyond our control, we can focus on strengthening our resilience and adapting with grace. Life’s waves test us, but they also teach us to find…

“Failure is not an option.” – Gene Kranz, Flight Director, Apollo 13

Few phrases in history are as instantly recognizable as “Houston, we have a problem.” However, what followed that crisis made history for another reason: the Apollo 13 mission became one of the greatest examples of virtual teamwork ever recorded. More than 50 years later, as businesses increasingly rely on remote collaboration, the lessons from this mission are more valuable than ever.

When an oxygen tank exploded aboard Apollo 1…

"Beauty is one of the most important emotions in life; beauty can save the world, one person at a time." – Renzo Piano

When we think of beauty, our minds most likely wander to art, architecture, or nature. But beauty isn’t confined to galleries or landscapes. It’s in the experiences we create, the spaces we inhabit, and the connections we foster. Can a business be beautiful? And should it?

The answer is a resounding yes. True beauty isn't about superficial aesthetics; it's about creating emotional…

Billions of cells, each with a task,
Weaving a symphony too vast to grasp.
A universe within, pulsing with light,
Carrying secrets both day and night.

Atoms once scattered through infinite space,
Now form the lines of your living embrace.
Heartbeats sync in perfect time,
A silent rhythm, a sacred rhyme.

Your lungs - oceans that rise and fall,
Breathing in whispers of something vast, enthralled.
Nerves like rivers, quick and bright,
Translating touch, emotion, and sight.

And yet, we rush, we ache, we strive,…

“If you get tired, learn to rest, not to quit.” – Banksy

In an age where work can easily seep into every aspect of our lives, prioritizing intentional breaks, setting clear boundaries, and designing distraction-free workspaces are more critical than ever. The mental clutter from constant task-switching and digital notifications can severely impact our ability to think creatively and solve complex problems. Research suggests that our brains require regular rest intervals to perform at their best –…

"The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek." – Joseph Campbell

Life often steers us away from discomfort, nudging us toward the familiar and safe. Yet, the most profound transformations lie in the spaces we avoid, those uncomfortable, soul-searching places where hard questions reside. As Joseph Campbell reminds us, the treasure we seek is often hidden in the caves we fear to enter.

What is it about these questions that makes them so daunting? They challenge our narratives, force us to…

I have been called impatient,
always reaching, always moving
a restless pulse against the silence,
always reaching for more.

But what for?

I’ve let joy sit on the shelf,
saving it for later,
as if it were a fine wine
needing time to be worthy.

I have mistaken desire for indulgence,
seen longing as something to be tamed,
told myself the struggle was noble,
that ease was something I had to earn.

But joy is not a prize at the end of effort,
It’s not a luxury for another season.
It is here, in the quiet moment,
in …

"From the ashes, a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadows shall spring." – J.R.R. Tolkien

The recent restoration of Notre Dame Cathedral is a powerful symbol of human resilience and the enduring spirit to rebuild in the face of adversity. Following the devastating fire in 2019, which ravaged its iconic spire and roof, the cathedral has undergone a meticulous and passionate restoration process, culminating in its reopening in December 2024. This monumental effort involved the collaboration …

I stand between the ending and the unknown,
A threshold neither claimed nor owned.
No longer what was, not yet what will be,
Suspended in time, untethered, free.

Here, the past unravels, thread by thread,
While the future whispers but stays unsaid.
Certainty fades, and questions arise,
Yet in this in-between, transformation lies.

It is a space of shedding, of breaking apart,
Of listening closer to the voice in my heart.
Old stories loosen their rigid hold,
Making room for new truths to be told.

The weight o…
