Positive Intelligence

Your mind is your best friend. But it can also be your worst enemy. Our breakthrough, research-based tools strengthen the part of your brain that serves you and quiet the part that sabotages you. You handle life’s challenges with a more positive mindset, and less stress. We call this mental fitness.

I facilitate groups to build mental fitness muscles so they can maximize their productivity and well-being.

I am not an employee of Positive Intelligence, but a Positive Intelligence/Mental Fitness Coach.

Women's Program Volunteer

Is your work running you instead of you running your work? 

I've been there. In fact, I spent a good 3 years in that same space. The biggest mistake I made was thinking that if I just tried harder, things would improve. 

Spoiler: That's not how it works.

What does work? Connecting with your values, gaining clarity, and taking small steps consistently.

Imagine instead of feeling like you can't breathe feeling:

The PEACE of knowing that you're making decisions aligned with your values
The CLARITY of exactly how you want to show up and the actions to take to do just that
The RELIEF of being back in control of your situation

When I was in my situation, having an external coach would have been a total game-changer. 

That's why I'm here. To support you in reclaiming your badassery so that you show up as the leader that you KNOW you are.

Resume formatting PSA of the day: Stop using the tab and space bar to get your dates to vaguely align on the right margin of your resume. 
Do this instead.

If you're using the space bar to get your dates to align on the right side, you're not alone. 

I edit MANY resumes, and 99% of people do this. 

There are a few issues with this:

1) Your dates don't end up *exactly* aligned to that margin. 
2) If you change your font or formatting, suddenly your dates start going onto a second line and you have a total mess.
3) If you, for some reason, don't submit a PDF, this formatting can appear all sorts of wonky on someone else's device.

Good thing spacing/tabbing over is completely unnecessary. 

Word and Docs have a feature that makes aligning text to different parts of the same line VERY easy.

They're called tab stops. 

(And they are useful to understand for many other uses outside of resumes.)

Here's what you'll do:
1️⃣ Go through your document and remove all those spaces and tabs you added between the company and the dates. 

2️⃣ Highlight the entire document (Use Cntl + A, or Command+A if you're a Mac user like me.)

3️⃣ In the ruler at the top of your document, click one time near the right margin stop (the little triangle that's on the right side of the ruler.)

4️⃣  In the menu that opens, select "right tab stop". A new little triangle will appear (the peak of the triangle will face to the left). 

5️⃣  Click and drag that triangle to the margin stop (the other triangle).

6️⃣  Go back to first date you want to align on the right, put your cursor in front of the date and press the tab key on your keyboard just ONE time. 

The date moved all the way over to the tab stop you created, didn't it?

7️⃣  Repeat for any text you want aligned on the right margin.

Bonus note: You can also create left and center tab stops. Keep this in mind any time you're trying to format multiple pieces of text in different areas of the same line.
