As we slowly emerge from a time of loneliness and longing, we're flooded with warm memories of the things and people that matter the most to us. Our minds keep travelling back to the life we were used to living.

Being a modern, global citizen is challenging. From minor events to significant crises, stress is an inevitable part of life. And as if work and tending to family responsibilities weren't enough, there's also a deep-seated pressure to keep up with social media, friends and to be available via text practically 24/7. While it's true we cannot control our circumstances in most cases, we can control how we react...

I vestiti giusti, cocktail deliziosi e risate senza fine. Questo è il lato divertente e memorabile che portano con sé le feste del periodo natalizio. Ma come lo Spirito del Natale passato desidera ricordarti, può diventare molto incasinato se la miriade di inviti a cui non hai risposto si accumula sul calendario degli eventi sociali. Non hai idea di cosa indossare alle feste e, in generale, come ci si deve comportare in...

Hai presente quelle donne che hanno un milione di impegni e ti sei chiesta come diavolo fanno a tenere tutto sotto controllo? Al di là del significato letterale di essere a capo della propria impresa o di avere una posizione di vertice in un'azienda, essere un leader significa davvero prendere il comando e costruire la vita che si desidera veramente. Si può pensare che i leader siano nati tali, e in alcuni casi è proprio così. Ma è anche vero che ogni donna può costruire se stessa per diventare leader strada facendo. Le cose...

Le luci lampeggianti, i messaggi in arrivo e lo scorrimento infinito sui social media, ci indicano che il mondo intorno a noi si muove a velocità implacabile con la quale è impossibile tenere il passo. Ora più che mai, la vita chiede un posto...
