“How to avoid falling in love with a jerk”. Taught me such good boundaries and how to build myself up so I wouldn’t fall for the wrong guy. There’s also a book called “I only want to get married once”.

Hmmm. I enjoy reading the Gottmans, as well as the “all of nothing marriage” but those are more about maintaining/growing your relationships.

This is sort of an interesting one because I actually think better than anything specifically about this, I think reading philosophy/religious texts that help you get in touch with your best, most true self and help you live in that space. I love the Bhagavad Gita, Buddhism books by Joseph Goldstein. But you probably have to find your thing.

I shared the wrong screen in a meeting with 1 direct report (Director) and 1 of his direct reports (Sr Manager) 😱. I have 2 screens and Zoom chose the one not in front of me and I had no idea.

About 3 seconds after I shared the Director said “I think you’re sharing your to do list” and I immediately closed it. I have to assume they saw everything. What do I do?
