From 4/07/09 Huffington Post Column:This question hit me last week after I side-swiped a parked car while pulling into my driveway. I actually didn’t realize what I had done until I got out and saw the scratches on my three month old car. I thought to myself, “Did I hit a car and not even…

From 3/31/09 Huffington Post Column:Dear Christine,I recently read your book and did the exercise, “Getting to the Core of What You Want” and I discovered that the only thing I really want is to be happy, self confident and surrounded by people I love.

From 3/17/09 Huffington Post Column:In light of all the negative news and challenges so many have been facing lately, I think we could all use more uplifting stories and experiences in our lives. So instead of answering a question this week, I wanted to share a profound swinging experience I recently had (no, not that…

From 03/10/09 Huffington Post Column:Each week in this column, I have the opportunity to address questions about life, love, work and relationships from twenty somethings. This week I digress to address a topic that is usually not top of mind during this decade life: our own mortality. For most, our twenties and early thirties are…

From 2/24/09 Huffington Post Column:Dear Christine,“I can’t seem to concentrate at work. I’m going through a break-up, fighting with my roommate, and at odds with my parents. I feel totally overwhelmed, like one of those cartoon characters when steam starts coming out of its ears. I need some space, some time, but what about work?…

This article was written by Rachel Zupek and includes a few excerpts from my talks with companies on working with Gen Y employees and how to bridge generational gaps. The workplace in this day and age has become a collaboration of different generations working side by side together. It can become a delicate issue however,…

From 2/17/09 Huffington Post Column:Dear Christine,I saw your recent post about being out of work but staying hopeful and was wondering how you felt about changing industries during this job market. For those who are out of work, and even those seeking better opportunity, is it better to remain in the field where you are…

From 2/03/09 Huffington Post Column:Dear Christine,I have gotten to the point of despair when it comes to finding a job. I know I am not alone in this terrible market, but I am starting to lose all motivation. I’ve been looking for a job for six months now and I feel like my degree is…

From 1/27/09 Huffington Post Column:It’s a new year and our country has a new President. Saying that “change is coming” seems like quite the understatement because it’s already here. I don’t know if you feel it, but I’ve been very aware of how things are shifting around us. People are starting to wake up, step…

From 1/20/09 Huffington Post Column:Dear Christine,I have currently been “dating” a girl for about a month. Our relationship started off a bit odd where we literally spoke everyday for the first 2 weeks of knowing each other. However, recently a day or two has gone by without conversation. If I don’t initiate the conversation I…

From 1/13/09 Huffington Post Column:Dear Christine,“I’m currently in my early twenties and I gotta say, I’m so lost. I have a lot of stress from a job I don’t enjoy and battle constant insecurity issues (I related a lot to your article you wrote about going to your college reunion). So how did you do…

From 1/06/09 Huffington Post Column:Dear Christine,I’ve been in the job application process for several months now without success. Most of the time, I don’t hear back from potential employers unless I initiate a call. Usually if I get them on the phone, they say something like they have filled the position or are no longer…

From 12/30/08 Huffington Post Column:On New Years, we tend to make resolutions which are usually promises to do something “more, better, or different” as our society seems to revolve around this notion that there is always room for improvement.
