By Danielle, on July 18th, 2010 Today, CBC’s weekend morning show Fresh Air featured Nancy-Gay Rotstein , author of Shattering Glass. The book is a story about 3 women who are each struggling with the tension of financial independence, career success, and family life. It’s a creative fiction approach to a non-fiction topic (just like my book) which makes for an entertaining and preach-free read.

By Danielle, on May 31st, 2010 It amazes me when I venture out of my apartment during the day to run, shop, eat, and I find that there are people just like me filling the streets, parks, libraries, restaurants.
Just like me how? Adults who are not tourists, or on vacation, or taking care of children, or coming or going to work.
In a word, under-employed.
Maybe you work from home. Maybe you’re employed part-time. Maybe you’re a consultant and work is slow. Or maybe you’re just plain unemployed. Being under-employed can be ….well…boring. Even though I’m writing, and working on a new business idea, and working part . . .

By Danielle, on April 21st, 2010 Men’s natures are alike; it is their habits that separate them. ~ Confucius
You’re a morning person, I’m a night owl. You skip breakfast, I wouldn’t miss it for anything. You shop at the same grocery store every week, I shop at the same grocery store every week, but I don’t shop at your grocery store. Why? Habits.
Habits have a huge influence on our lives because they contribute to our successes, failures, personalities, relationships, and opinions.
But why?
Habits Co-Mingle
The people I know well are somewhat predictable to me, and I know that my usual behaviors . . .
