Growing up, hard boiled eggs were never my favorite. In fact, I either had to dip them in sauce or eat them while drinking a glass of milk. They were bland and flavorless. However, tea eggs were an entirely different beast. I enjoyed the aroma of tea eggs, the flavor profile that is infused into… Read more »
I aim to show love for everyone without any sparring, although I’ve been trained in combative sports. Social media brings out sparring behavior, but it creates turmoil in my soul to take a strong view of one group against another. However, I care deeply about our Jewish community. I think the entire victim versus oppressor… Read more »
A surprisingly fun issue this week, as Alek has provided us another one of his larger-than-life tales which I’d typically write off as humour reporting, except that he’s got the pics to prove it.

She suggests that each of us has a guardian angel who follows us everywhere, mirrors our every move, loves us with an indescribable euphoria, and does everything possible to guide us toward unconditional love… Read more »
I’ve got the secret for climbing the corporate ranks that could otherwise crush us if we didn’t have this insight. We might think we are a corporate three when we’re a ten just because we don’t have the right tools. We may not realize that the failure is not us but a lack of access… Read more »
This week’s issue was a bit challenging for me, as a couple of the articles this week are about not accepting prevailing wisdom and always being willing to challenge orthodoxy, whether it be in cultural or scientific norms. And while I agree to some extent, my own experience has me rather acutely aware of the… Read more »
How do we go from no experience leading people to idealized leaders on the first day of the job? I have an idea of how to achieve this. But first, what is an ideal leader? It’s someone who loves the people they serve, is visionary and inspirational, and elevates the bottom line. And I have… Read more »
