Hatred Will be Our Undoing

Love not hate

I recently watched the movie, The Boy in the Stripped Pajamas, a 2008 movie based in the World War II era. It follows a German family who moves so the father can take his new post at a “farm” which is really an extinction camp. The movie is complex and shows multiple sides of the […]

Hello 2021; Goodbye 2020

Time for new goals

Happy New Year! And like that, 2020 is now in the rear view mirror. I think most of us are glad to put it behind us, but I hope we aren’t throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Every year will have its challenges, but every year will also have its positives. Granted, 2020 threw […]

Finally Get Fit and Live Your Life!

Minor adjustments can make a big difference

I don’t know about you, but I indulged this holiday. This year had its stresses and challenges, and well, I guess I just took a break and didn’t worry about what I ate. The New Year is around the corner, and it is time to get fit so we can live our life to the […]

Healthy Employees = A Healthy Company

Your employee's health matters

I have been championing wellness and stress management for well over 20 years now. Getting corporations to acknowledge and understand the correlation between employee health and their bottom line has been an uphill battle…until now. I’m hoping a positive that has come out of our COVID-19 pandemic is an awareness and acknowledgement of the importance […]

Fit to Lead and Create a Winning Culture

Leaders need to be FIT

The word culture is thrown around a lot, but my experience is that most companies have a disconnect between what they say and what they do in regards to culture. The classic case is the company who says they are hip and Generation Y friendly, yet they do not offer flexible work schedules and are […]

Mind Matters to Get Your Life Back

Make mental health a priority

          James Allen said, “as a man thinkith, so shall he be.” Our minds are powerful tools that can be used for our good or our own demise. Think you are going to make it and succeed and chances are you will! Think you most likely fail and surely you will! In a recent episode […]

How to Conquer your Chronic Pain

Conquer your chronic pain

I have had more than my fair share of pain, and it all started in my 30s. I went six years undiagnosed with Lyme disease, which took three horrific years to beat with three additional years to rebuild my body after the war. Since then, I have lived with residual aftermaths and pains. Through my […]

Who Do You Want to Hire

Know what the role requires

As an executive recruiter, I must ask multiple questions to gain knowledge as to the type of role needing filled as well as the particular type of individual who would be well suited for the position. Learning about the company culture is a must to ensure alignment between existing and new employees and company objectives. […]

The Lost Art of Conversation

The Art of Conversation

This past weekend, I didn’t leave the house. I was overdue for a relaxing, restful weekend at home. Besides baking pumpkin bread, making homemade soup, painting, and wrapping Christmas gifts, I watched some movies. It has been a long time since I saw Fried Green Tomatoes, which originally released in 1991, but I settled in […]

I recently watched the movie, The Boy in the Stripped Pajamas, a 2008 movie based in the World War II era. It follows a German family who moves so the father can take his new post at a “farm” which is really an extinction camp. The movie is complex and shows multiple sides of the issue from the innocent Jews forced to give up their livelihoods for hard labor to the wife of the German soldier trying to raise her children in the midst of a dark period in history....www.lorrainebosse-smith.com/hatred-will-be-our-undoing/ ...
