What Dr. Doll can say in an interview on
Exploring Happiness:

      • COVID-19 has impacted everyone on the globe to varying degrees. 
      • A challenge I frequently hear is people are struggling, yet they feel guilty about it because, by western societal standards, their life is “great.” They are healthy, employed, and have a family. So they aren’t struggling in the literal sense, yet their life feels like a struggle.

What Paul Tracey can say in an interview on
Google’s New Cybersecurity Team:

    • Having more security on all platforms is a necessity and for that reason, we applaud any efforts at hardening systems in the cloud and on-premises. From the information we currently have these services would only affect services within Google’s workspace cloud infrastructure. Although this is a step in the right direction, It can also provide a false sense of security. We have seen that there is a consensus that because a company utilizes cloud services they aren’t at risk of a cyber-attack and this approach is just plain wrong.

Remote Work in the Future
:

    • Remote work is not only here to stay, it is also changing the way we perceive a workplace experience. Everything about a “traditional” workplace – from being office-centric to how we onboard new hires, and from the ways we communicate with our teams to how we envision a culture – is evolving.
    • This means everything we once knew about a Workplace Experience, is no longer what it used to be. And the key to keeping up with this evolution is to lean into it.

Domestic Violence as it pertains to the Gabby Petito story:

    • Shocking that this case has revealed that NOTHING has changed in our awareness of domestic violence and perpetrator terrorists of violence since Nicole Brown Simpson was killed. No American culture or internal police knowledge has changed, so women are still dying at a rate of 84% of all female homicides. These murders are actually FEMICIDES (the name for women partner violence that turns to murder) at the hand of a previous or current partner, love interest, or someone the woman knowingly and willingly let her into her life.

Facebook and Our Emotional Response to Polarizing Content
:

Whistleblower Frances Haugen claims that the issue around Facebook allegedly knowingly causing harm is due to a conflict of interest between their growth in revenue and engagement and the public interest. In 2018 Facebook introduced an algorithm that relates to how content is offered to users, specifically choosing to show whatever type of content the user engaged with the most in the past. Hauge explained, “It is easier to entice people with anger.”

How We Can Achieve a Healthy Lifestyle:

Gaining weight creates pathways for illness and disease in the body. Understanding the reasons why this happens is the secret to achieving our health and wellness goals:  

1. The Western Lifestyle

Unfortunately, our diet is high in processed foods, which in turn are high in sodium and sugar, and other chemicals. The very foundation of our diet causes us to crave or even be addicted to these ingredients, which, over time, create pathways to illness and disease in the body. Sodium and sugar activate “reward” or “pleasure” eating which initiates an undesired and unhealthy habitual eating pattern. Consuming large amounts of sugar and sodium can lead to weight gain.

And once conflicts have reached levels that are already difficult to manage, many aspects of our lives become casualties—relationships, physical and mental health, and even the way we interact with others.
