“We spend three quarters of our daytime traveling between past, present, and future.”

| “Time is like a river made up of the events which happen, and a violent stream; for as soon as a thing has been seen, it is carried away, and another comes in its place, and this will be carried away too.” – Marcus Aurelius |
| How many times have philosophers and meditation experts suggested we “live in the now”? Countless bestselling books have been written on the topic and it’s no doubt a helpful tool in reducing anxiety, depression, and other mental health barriers that many of us struggle with. In other words, it’s a perfectly lovely idea—and an important one. |
| But, according to one neuroscientist, it’s actually impossible. In fact, she suggests that we need to reframe how we think about time—and our space in it—in order to truly thrive. |

“Well, this is both specific and accurate.”
|
| A woman dealing with burnout. |
|
|
|
| A recent poll found that Millennials are the generation most likely to suffer from workplace burnout. A poll by Seramount, a global talent services firm, found that 67% of American workers report at least one symptom of burnout, and it’s hitting younger workers hardest. Over 70% of Millennials (77%) and Gen Zers (72%) experience at least one burnout symptom, compared to Gen X (62%) and Boomers (32%). |
| Why is it that burnout hits Millennials so much harder than even its younger cohorts? “Millennials already weathered several seasons of significant turmoil during their relatively short careers, from the Great Recession to the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Diana Forster, Senior Director of Qualitative Research at Seramount. “Now, many are in mid-level management roles with increased responsibilities, intensifying stress and burnout.” |

“The world needs the Irwin family.”
|
| This dance was for everyone on a grief journey. |
|
|
|
| The late, great Steve Irwin, aka the Crocodile Hunter, left behind a legacy of enthusiasm and compassion for every living thing on this planet. Nearly two decades after his dad’s passing, Robert Irwin keeps that legacy of father’s spirit alive. Not just in his work with animals, but in the way he feels for others. |
| On the Oct 14 episode of Dancing with the Stars, the 21-year-old conservationist performed one of the most moving routines of the season: an emotional contemporary dance dedicated to his “absolute hero” mother, Terri Irwin, set to Phil Collins’ famously tearjerking ballad, “You’ll Be in My Heart.” |
| Before stepping onto the stage, Robert opened up about his choice. “I’ve never been able to capture the feeling of gratitude I feel for her,” he said, breaking down into tears. “At every milestone, when I just wished my dad was there, she was there. And that was enough.” |

“Babe. There’s a reason it got a Best Picture nom.”
|
| Brb, just gonna watch all of these movies again. |
|
|
|
| Sure, Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters had dazzling animation, fun characters, and a soundtrack full of catchy earworms, but another huge part of why it became such a mega-success was its depth. |
| Beneath the eye-catching choreo and high-energy fight scenes were themes of identity, belonging, and self acceptance that hit harder than most grown-up dramas. It’s a reminder that some “kids movies” aren’t just for kids at all. |
| And, as one recent Reddit thread proved, it’s certainly not the only one that delivers an unexpected gem of wisdom. |
