8 Common Patterns of Low Self-Esteem
“Forgive yourself for not knowing better at the time. Forgive yourself for giving away your power. Forgive yourself for past behaviors. Forgive yourself for the survival patterns and traits you picked up while enduring trauma. Forgive yourself for being who you needed to be.” ~ Audrey Kitching
You can try it all—exercise, a bubble bath, a relationship, a promotion, and everything else that you think will make you happy. I have come to learn those things will not give you the kind of happiness you desire until they coincide with you knowing your worth.
At my unhappiest times, my eyes were wide shut to the tru...

Your Most Daunting Open Loops
An open loop typically refers to an unfinished project, task, or assignment. Sometimes people will extend the definition to include their major goals as well.
I’ve been finding a lot of value in extending this concept to include anything that pops into my mind where I don’t feel that I’ve achieved sufficient closure. If my mind is dedicating some internal processing cycles to a thought pattern that isn’t aligned with what I’m doing in the moment, that’s a distraction. And many of those distractions come from unresolved open loops.
These open loops could be little things, like a pas...

Conscious Growth Club Will Open on April 27
In the last week of this month we’ll open Conscious Growth Club for new members. The last time we invited new members to join was in the last week of April 2019, so it’s been a year.
I expect the overall structure of Conscious Growth Club, including the private member forums, member portal, coaching calls, quarterly planning sessions, course access, and monthly 30-day challenges to remain largely unchanged. I’m going to review all the features and benefits, decide what to add or tweak, and record a new invitation video for it, so that’s when I’ll share the exact offer details for the upcoming year.
I intend...

Coping Strategies in Uncertain Times: Calming Your Nervous System During the Coronavirus Outbreak
I have a confession to make. I am writing this blog as much for you as I am for me. These are challenging times. I find it especially hard to hear such difficult news on a daily basis — news that is not balanced with much good news. We don’t get an alert on our phones every time someone recovers from Coronavirus, and we hear more about the hoarding and shortage of supplies than we do about the acts of kindness and care taking place each day to help people through. In addition, it can be hard to escape the panic, anxiety and fear that is around us on a daily basis that feels contagious.
As we face uncertain, unpr...

Advance care planning
Deciding How You Want to Live in the Time of COVID19People don’t like to talk about politics, religion or money. To that we would add advance care planning. And to that we would add there’s been no time in recent memory when it was more important to name someone to speak for you if you can’t speak for yourself…which is what happens when you’re on a ventilator!Advance care planning is the process of clarifying your life goals and values and making sure your healthcare preferences are known and honored.Most Americans today will die from complications of chronic illness, with slow and uncertain d...

Updated Call for Proposals: Junior Scholars Symposium
Emma AshfordSometimes the foreign policy crises with the most potential to change the world are the ones you just don ’t see coming. That’s never been more apparent than today, as we all sit at home engaging in ‘social distancing,’ trying to maintain work productivity while preventing the spread of the novel coronavirus. A pandemic of this magnitude will have unknown – but potentially major – impacts on global politics for years to come.The Cato Foreign Policy team wants to encourage graduate students to submit abstracts on this, and on other topics in international security to our fall Junior Scholars Sym...

We ’re All in This Together: Facing the Coronavirus Crisis
I am writing this article from bed, listening to the sweet sounds of Sleepy Hollow on University of Pennsylvania station, WXPN, which includes easing into the day music that is a regular part of my Saturday morning. I plan to remain at home, not interacting physically with other human beings, but certainly available via phone or cyberspace. Thankfully, I am showing no symptoms of COVID-19, but I am monitoring closely, since I was in the hospital three times in the past month for cardiac and kidney stone related issues which puts me in a high-risk group, along with being part of the over-60 crowd.
Except for going to work ...

Thoughts on LGBTQ
People who know me well won’t likely see any surprises here, but I don’t think I’ve done a good enough job of clearly sharing certain values publicly, so I’d like to correct this now.
I’m pro-LGBTQ rights. I think LGBTQ people should have the same rights as anyone else, and I don’t think they should be discriminated against. I feel this should be a worldwide right, not a local issue.
I think everyone should be free to marry whomever they want. Truth be told, I’m even in favor of poly marriages that include more than two people.
I think people should be free to choose their...

How Our Beliefs Change as We Age
Often, I work with clients who profess entrenched beliefs about subjects ranging from relationships to health, from career to religion. Some of those ideas serve them, others clearly don’t and in many cases have led to the need for therapy. They may take the form of cognitive distortions that can hamper every realm of our lives. What enables us to tackle them instead of allowing them to knock us over, is an awareness of what they truly are.
While they may be born out of actual events, the impact on our lives is a choice, rather than a necessity. Early messages from caregivers, teachers and society itself, either spoken ...
