Core principles

The ideas that run through Relationships, Family & Social Well-Being.

  • 1.
    Presence is the gift. Everything else is packaging.
  • 2.
    Repair is a skill. Nobody teaches it. Learn it anyway.
  • 3.
    Network for meaning, not just for career growth.
  • 4.
    Set boundaries before resentment sets them for you.
  • 5.
    Engage younger generations as collaborators, not as audience.
Nobody on their deathbed says they wish they'd gone to more networking events.
