Monitoring Your Mental Health

May 24, 2022by Asila Calhoun
As you know, May is Mental Health Awareness Month. How are you taking care of your mental health? Remember, self-care isn’t selfish! Here are some recommendations that could be helpful for you or employees in your organization for mental health and well-being. Consider taking a social media break. Many of us feel the pressure of being “on” all the time. Social media is...

Active Allyship

February 28, 2022by Asila Calhoun
February is Black History Month, and I can’t think of a better way to support Black and Brown people than to introduce you to an organization that will allow you to put your allyship into action. I’m on the advisory board of birdSEED, which is a housing justice program that offers down payment grants to qualifying Black and Brown* first-time home buying...

Living Your Purpose

January 30, 2022by Asila Calhoun
I recently learned about the Japanese concept of ikigai  (ee-key-guy) at a live LinkedIn event featuring Chip Conley and Seth Godin. Your ikigai is your life purpose or meaning. The term is a combination of the Japanese definitions for “alive” or “life” and “worth” or “benefit”. Chip and Seth only briefly spoke of this concept, but I was...

Year End Reflections

December 31, 2021by Asila Calhoun
As 2021 wraps up, I am reflecting on year two of the global pandemic and the highs and lows of the year. There are so many things that made me proud, and of course there are some things I wish had gone differently.  I am feeling particularly grateful for the time I had in California, reconnecting with family and friends after two years. Definitely a high...

In Gratitude

November 23, 2021by Asila Calhoun
Did you know gratitude isn’t a thing, it’s an energetic state? One of the fastest ways to shift your energy into a more open one is to identify things you’re grateful for. Research has shown that expressing gratitude improves physical health, relationships, leadership. It can be as simple as writing down three things...

Unplugging and Recharging

October 20, 2021by Asila Calhoun
The last 18 months have caught up with me. I’ve been operating at warp speed with a long weekend here or there, but I haven’t truly unplugged. I am overdue for a break and some “me” time. I haven’t seen my family in almost two years, since before the pandemic. I’m heading to California to rejuvenate for about 6 weeks. I’ll work some weeks, and I’ll play on other weeks.  If...

Mental Health Month

May 24, 2021by Asila Calhoun
It’s been quite a year since last May’s Mental Health month. We’ve lived through a year in a global pandemic, intense racial injustice, and a volatile election season, all of which contributed to a tough year for many of us. The result? A society more than a little on edge and additional pressure on mental health professionals.  Whether...

Black History in the Making

February 24, 2021by Asila Calhoun
February is Black History Month, and I’ve seen more opportunities for learning than I have in years past. I attribute the uptick in program offerings to the events of 2020. It’s been nine months since awareness of the racial injustice Black Americans face every day was raised after the killing of George Floyd and the phone call to NYPD by Amy Cooper in Central Park,...

2020 2.0?

January 25, 2021by Asila Calhoun
I’ve heard from family, friends and clients that 2021 still feels like 2020. I get it. Turning the page on the calendar did not make Covid go away or make it immediately possible to see our families, friends, and colleagues. Borders remain closed to the U.S., and there’s still work to do to heal the racial and political divide. How did we get here? When will it feel like a new year?...

Give The Gift of Presence

December 14, 2020by Asila Calhoun
It seems everywhere I turn, the word “presence” is coming up. To me, presence means being mindful, aware and focused on who I’m with or what I’m doing. I’ll be honest, it’s not always easy to do. I find myself multi-tasking when my husband is talking to me, texting my cousins while cooking, or noticing my mind wandering when talking with friends....
