Just a friendly reminder that no matter how many rejections you get, it only takes one 'yes' to turn things around. Stay persistent.
A shame that in 2024 in a large organisation like @AmericanAir , gender bias is deeply ingrained. Let’s also take a moment to acknowledge the awesome work this epic Doctor volunteered 👏 Am sure that person was more grateful for your efforts @saharbjones than the other bloke’s! – at Christchurch City, New Zealand
On my flight back home to see family briefly after working such a hard trauma call shift, @AmericanAir asked for a doctor or nurse on board.
I stood up after <1 min of nobody else standing up, flight attendant assumed I was a nurse. Few minutes later after stabilizing the patron

A sunny Sunday well spent soaking up stunning South Island lake views. A lovely reminder:
“Earth and sky, woods and fields, lakes and rivers, the mountain and the sea, are excellent schoolmasters, and teach some of us more that what we could learn from books.” - John Lubbock – at Canterbury Region, New Zealand

When I'm stuck, the words "what should I do?" play like a broken record on repeat in my mind.
I just figured out a reframe to get unstuck.
'What 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 I do?' narrows the brain to search for 1 answer.
But "What 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 I do?", opens the mind to options.
Thoughts?
It’s maybe not surprising, but super interesting to chat about and consider how managers treat those without little humans to care for differently at work. There’s a “moral” judgement/choice implied. Let’s make workplaces more accommodating for us ALL 👏 #work #career – at Christchurch City, New Zealand

After coaching a lot of very successful people, here's an unsexy truth:
A lot of success is learning to grind when it's boring.
Staying engaged, working, and seeing it through when it's "boring" is a skill. If you expect all building to be exciting, you'll never make it.

Building strong relationships is not about arguing less. It's about arguing more constructively.
The goal is not to reach consensus on all your opinions or share all your values.
It's to understand each other's opinions and respect each other's values.

Imagine if we checked in with a therapist every six months starting at age 3 like we do with a dentist
...emotional fitness habits solidified when we’re young...emotional cavities caught early and tended to...
What a world that’d be 💪❤️

is there a more savage insult in literature than young Jane Eyre saying, “I am not deceitful; if I were, I should say I loved you”

Saying no is not as costly as you expect.
11 studies: people overestimate the relationship and reputation risks of turning down requests. People generally don't hold it against you.
Declining doesn't mean you don't care. It means you're taking care not to overextend yourself.

Ok folks. It’s time we talked about eels.
I’m a geologist but I recently learnt about eels and… wow.
Since then, I’ve been greeting strangers with ‘DO YOU KNOW ABOUT EELS?!’
Well, consider yourself a stranger in my path.
Strap in. It’s a 🧵
