Goldfish Crackers are a standard in most homes with children. My two children have always loved them. Yesterday as I was putting away groceries, the word Optimism caught my eye on a big box of whole grain baked Goldfish with the important note: “Optimism is a skill children can learn and leads to greater happiness and resilience.” As an advocate of Positive…

My colleague, Career Counselor Ilana Levitt and I were in our respective Yoga classes recently and had a similar epiphany. We were both struck by the relevance of Yoga practice to our work with people stuck in various stages of their job search or career development. Ilana and I are dedicated to helping people break through the psychological barriers that are keeping…
