Honored to be listed as a part of someone’s day. It’s a lifestyle. It’s a choice. We’re our own little family. #gratitude #mindbodysoul #uppereastside Asphalt Green
“How was your day?” is always a strange question to me. How do you sum up in a short answer all of the things you’ve done, felt or thought in the entirety of 24 hours? Studies show that every single day, we are:? ??♀?making up to 35,000 decisions? ??thinking over 6,000+ thoughts? ??experiencing 400 emotions? That’s a feat for even ChatGPT to summarize! But I recently laid out a typical day in my life — and while the majority of my time may be spent working, the rhythm of my day is intentionally set to keep me present and engaged with those around me. Whether it’s being a regular at Kirsten Aiello's spin class, sharing laughs with my fellow dog parents at Carl Schurz Park Conservancy, or sprucing up the planters outside my co-op building, my desire to make an impact doesn’t stop outside of those 9-5 business hours. Plus, participating in those other areas translates back to my business — not just in tangible connections, but it reminds me that we’re all seeking fulfillment; to work hard, excel in our craft, and enact positive change for ourselves and others in the process. Who are the people that make your day brighter, on or off the clock? A few of mine: Erin Halper, Champion of Independent Consultants, The Upside, Francine Shafeek, Karl Seidenwurm, Janet Ungless, ája B. #DayInTheLife #WorkLifeBalance #Networking ___________________________________ ??
