Saying “𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒌 𝒚𝒐𝒖” is an essential yet often 𝒏𝒆𝒈𝒍𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝒔𝒌𝒊𝒍𝒍 that can strengthen personal relationships and improve workplace environments. Let’s explore how to make our “thank yous” more meaningful, both in our interactions with loved ones and our colleagues.

I just rediscovered two old posts/threads of mine, that explain pretty well, why I want to go into pedagogy now (I didn't know it back then - too busy working on my depression and hating school):

I want to protect children.
I want to provide them a save environment to thrive and talk about their troubles.
In a perfect school system kids would learn mental hygiene and get therapy before they learn integrals and the uncritical history of wars and power abuse. That would prevent so much domestic abuse, because it would be caught early.
And teaching kids emotional and social competence before teaching them applied capitalism will prevent abuse, division, exploitation and hate in the future.

I want to teach children to be happier than me, less abusive than my stepdad, more empathetic than my mom and more protective of future generations than my teachers were.

That's why I'm studying animal assisted pedagogy and will start studying social pedagogy, trauma pedagogy and environmental pedagogy this fall.

💼 Why does rejection at work hurt so much—and how do we move past it?

Whether it’s a failed job interview, a declined proposal, or being passed over for a promotion, rejection in the workplace can feel deeply personal.

According to psychologist Art Markman, the reasons include:
🧠 Rejection sensitivity—some of us are wired to expect rejection
📉 Fear of asking, applying, or risking failure
💔 When rejection hits your self-concept or future goals

Here’s how to cope effectively:
✍️ Write about the experience to process it
🛌 Prioritize sleep to reset emotionally
💬 Work with a therapist to unpack recurring patterns

Success in any field means risking rejection. The trick is learning to face it, grow from it—and keep going.

"The body is just a reflection.
We think mind AND body, but this is all false.
Body and mind is just one thing.
The body is just the mind seen.
It is the visible aspect of the mind.
Mind and body are one entity.
It's just one we can see, the other we can't, but it is one entity.
It's a continuum."
- Mia Khalil

(1 of 3) Let's talk about #EmotionalIntelligence : It's not just a buzzword; It's key to understanding yourself and your interactions.

Emotional Intelligence is your ability to recognize, understand, and manage your own emotions. It's about being aware, being present, and being mindful in your relationships.

And speaking of relationships, let's dive into some real talk about friendships. It's Friend Friday, and I'm sharing how my connections impact my energy.

First up, the "Broadcaster." You know the type. They constantly blast information, rarely pausing for a breath. It's nice to share, but sometimes, you just want to be seen or to be asked, "How are YOU doing?" instead of just being a witness to their endless monologue. It's about connection, not just transmission.
