Grateful Living: The Inner Climate That Shapes How We Move Through the Season
By Stephanie Bavaro, Senior Trainer at Presidential Consultants A few years ago, I found myself sitting in my car, breath fogging the windshield, feeling completely overwhelmed. Nothing dramatic had happened. It was simply one of those moments when life feels heavier than it looks. The kind of moment when the quiet inside you gets loud.

Easing the Holiday Blues: Simple Ways to Stay Steady When the Season Feels Heavy
By CeCe Norwood, Senior Trainer at Presidential Consultants The holidays arrive wrapped in many things. Some feel warm and comforting. Some feel tender, complicated, or quietly exhausting. Many people hold both realities at the same time. Joy can sit beside grief. Excitement can sit beside depletion. Togetherness can sit beside a deep hunger for rest.

Invisible Armor: What We Forget About Veterans in the Workplace
By: Anthony President You know the type. First to arrive. Last to leave. Quiet under pressure. Unshakable in the middle of a crisis.

The Hidden Fear in High-Performing Teams
By: CeCe President Walk into any meeting room, and you can often feel it before you hear it. The silence that follows a leader’s question. Heads nod. Notes shuffle. But few speak up. It’s not because the room lacks ideas. It’s because the room lacks safety.
