I am honored to win the 2016 Community Media Rika Welch leadership award for community impact; a testimony to the Guests who shared their stories on MidLIFE Matters. In addition, an 2018 interview I did with Judith Altmann, a Holocaust Survivor, won an award. In 2020 and 2021 two other awards acknowledged the content of interviews dealing with Child Sex Trafficking in CT and Non-Profit leadership. In 2023 MidLIFE Matters won First Place for a Profile Talk Show.Thursday

Tactical Tip #3: Don't Settle
Thursday, July 29, 2010 at 07:07PM The best jobs include variety, challenge, autonomy -- and a good boss.
- Even in these times, take risks to build on your natural strengths.
- Just because you can do a job doesn't mean its best for you long term.
- Pay, status and security are seductive; don't be rash, but also don't succumb to fear and fatigue.
- Valued employees are resilient and multi skilled; cross training is a win-win.
- Understand how your job contributes to the success of your team -- and your boss.
- But remember, you are being paid for what you do now, not to build your talents.
- So explore how you can learn something new, while being productive.
~~ Listen to your gut, and move towards your interests ~~
