When You Finally Get “Alone Time”, How Do You Use It?

When You Finally Get “Alone Time”, How Do You Use It?

by Lori Mihalich-Levin | Apr 30, 2022 | self-care, Working Dad, Working Mom

Ah, the words “alone time” make me sigh with joy and pleasure.  Otherwise sometimes referred to as “me time,” this beautiful concept didn’t even have a name in by vocabulary when I was single.  Before having children, I don’t think I ever felt the need to label a...

Mindful Return with a Mzantsi (South Africa) Flavour!

by Lori Mihalich-Levin | Apr 23, 2022 | Maternity Leave, Working Mom

When was the last time you embarked on a new learning or professional development (PD) project?   When was the last time you signed up for and took a class?  In the chaotic past two years of pandemic parenting, this topic hasn’t been at the top of most working...
The Story of the Lost Cell Phone

The Story of the Lost Cell Phone

by Lori Mihalich-Levin | Mar 12, 2022 | Mindfulness, Working Dad, Working Mom

Two weeks ago, during my children’s winter break, I lost my cell phone on a ski slope. Now, at the outset, I want to recognize the immense privilege packed into that sentence.  I own an iPhone with a fancy camera on it.  (Heck, I think there are actually 3 cameras.) ...
