The Werk is an online publication dedicated to disrupting the future of the way we work by bettering who we are inside and outside our 9-5 life.
I edited a number of stories for the launch of The Werk and have contributed some posts of my own. Check out a few of my favourite pieces:
Keep Calm and Activate the Vagus Nerve
Easy and actionable practices for slowing down your system with psychologist Hiroko Demichelis.
The Stories We Tell Ourselves as Entrepreneurs
We choose to become entrepreneurs and launch businesses because our hearts (and egos) believe what we are up to is worthy of peoples’ time and attention. Not surprisingly, when business isn’t booming or the work we want isn’t coming our way, our egos take a hit.
A Trying First Trimester
Nothing about pregnancy has been what I expected. I imagined a movie montage in which both my husband and I cried tears of joy looking in awe at our positive pregnancy test. I saw myself in a white linen dress, rubbing my belly, staring off into the distance dreaming of my future child. Reality has involved a lot more sweatpants, McDonald’s french fries, hormone-fuelled arguments and tears, lots of tears.
