Burbol’s Hierarchy of Happiness
For easy comparison, above, Burbol’s Hierarchy of Happiness, below Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. TLDR: I’m outrageously excited. I attempted to “fix” Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and ended up with a new direction and a new model. I never thought I’d say something like that. 🤯 I’ve been writing a Communication 101 series on my other…

My Owner’s Manual
I made fun little Owner’s manuals for Tigger and for Piglet and then had a crafting party where we all made our own Owner’s Manuals. It was super fun and turned out to be very introspective and useful to share with loved ones. In the video below, I show you what it is and how…

I love NVC (Non Violent Communication)
Wouldn’t it be great to get our needs met without angry confrontations, arguments, and misunderstandings? Wouldn’t it be great to actually be heard and have our needs met while also actually hearing our family/friends/lovers’ words and helping them get their needs met too? NVC is one of the best communication tools I’ve found so far…

EMDR Changed My Life
I have amazing, exciting news and a raving recommendation to share. SHORT VERSION: I’ve been seeing an EMDR therapist to heal past traumas and I just cancelled my reoccurring appointment because I ran out of traumas to neutralize.

Save A Meeting Cheat Sheet
What is this? A cheat sheet of nine pointed questions that can get a meeting back on the rails (and get it over with already). Why does this exist? Because I’m an introvert and I got tired of either having my day hijacked by useless meetings where nothing got done or being steamrolled in meetings…

Book Review: The Power Of TED, by David Emerald
why did I read it? I got tipped off about the Karpman drama triangle (AKA “the victim triangle”) and was blown away by how destructive and ever-present it is in all of us humans. It’s scary. We are all in a struggle against the victim triangle. Then I went looking for a way to break out…
