My birthday was this week, so giving back was focused on myself. And I wanted to share with you as well a special 43% off on any product or service. Another birthday surprise was being quoted in The New York Post.

How to stay sane and cope with commuting headache
Kerry Alison Wekelo, managing director of human resources and operations for Actualize Consulting and author of “Culture Infusion” (Zendoway), recommends rolling with the punches during capricious commutes.
“Simply laugh out loud, or strike up a conversation with a stranger and say something like, ‘You could not make this up if you tried.’ ” In addition, breathe deeply to relieve anxiety and stress (five mindful breaths with slow inhales and exhales).
Regarding incredulous treks home, refrain from dishing to your boss the next day, since it’s irrelevant to your workday. However, when running late in the morning, that’s another story.
Says Wekelo: “Always tell the truth even if it sounds like ‘My dog ate my homework.’ You can send a text or an e-mail to let them know the exact reason [as soon as you are above ground]. Many times, your excuse will be confirmed on social media.”
