Calling All Daydreamers

by Jane Kennedy | March 14, 2023 | Bold in Life, The SundayMonday Tuesday Archives | 0 Comments

I have a confession to make: I’m a daydreamer. I spend a whole lot of time thinking about the places I want to go, things I want to do, the people I want to meet. I fantasize about a life that will be mine – one day – and spend hours dreaming about how I’m going...

When I worked in an open office, my most prized possessions were my airpods. Unless they were firmly in my ears, I could count on at least a few interruptions from passers-by and colleagues every hour. While I understand that the whole point of an open office is to...
