Recognizing early that growth provides opportunities can improve how we think about change. medium.com/@limolnar/co... #leadership #nonprofit #startup #mentalhealth #innovation

Imposter syndrome isn't always feeling inadequate. Sometimes it's minimizing accomplishments, over-accommodating, fawning, hiding behind humour or making yourself smaller so others feel comfortable. Growth is recognizing your strengths without apology... to finally let yourself be accurately seen.

Organizational Growth Is Not a Marathon Organizational growth is often described as a marathon rather than a sprint. In reality, organizations rarely develop in such a linear manner. #business #strategy #leadership #mentalhealth #growth medium.com/p/3a898db9e1b3

The idea that visibility equals privilege sounds intuitive, but it breaks down under closer examination. Visibility is not inherently a sign of freedom or social advantage. medium.com/@limolnar/vu... #health #gender #men #women #leadership

You're welcome.

A United Means A compelling pathway toward greater global economic coordination lies not in the immediate creation of a single world currency, but in the development of a layered, basket-backed digital unit of account. #economics #politics #currency medium.com/@limolnar/a-...

Many helpful life coaches guide workers into thinking like an executive, but the transition from executive leadership into retirement or frontline work is often lacking. Transitioning from an executive role to a front-line position is often challenging in its own right. medium.com/@limolnar/an...

Harm reduction has evolved as shelters across Canada grapple with increasingly complex needs among residents. #homelessness #socialwork #healthcare #mentalhealth #inclusiveness medium.com/@limolnar/ha...

It wasn’t the Bank of Canada who destroyed the condo market by raising interest rates. It was condo developers who destroyed their own market by forgetting what their job was: to build livable, affordable places in which people can enjoy their lives and maybe even raise families. archive.ph/pcf48

Harm reduction discussions and policies sometimes overlook an important constituency: residents and staff who do not use substances and who can experience trauma. medium.com/@limolnar/in... #harmreduction #homeless #mentalhealthsupport #addiction #shelter

An interesting take that governments think the solution to the global housing crisis is private enterprise. Profits, scarcity and competition have never solved a public emergency. www.theglobeandmail.com/business/art...

Living with porphyria is like carrying a hidden storm system inside your body. On the surface, things can look calm—your day moving along, routines intact. But then the weather shifts. medium.com/@limolnar/li... #porphyria #healthcare #mentalhealth #stress #motivational

Today's threat of eminent collapse is from leaders who are “walking versions of the dark triad” – narcissism, psychopathy and Machiavellianism – in a world menaced by the climate crisis, nuclear weapons, artificial intelligence and killer robots. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

We can learn a lot about a person simply through a face, and it’s the single most unique way of identifying someone. For those of us with prosopagnosia, or face blindness, connecting these clues doesn’t come easily. medium.com/@limolnar/li... #psychology #diversity #motivation

When we only look at how autism appears, then we miss the mark. The challenge with a lot of inexperienced researchers is in taking an amorphous condition like autism and trying to segment it is asking for trouble. #autism #MentalHealth #research #socialjustice medium.com/@limolnar/op...

'Nuff said. #Canada

Inter-generational relationships are very common between Generation X (late 40s to early 60s) and younger generations. What led to this phenomenon? medium.com/@limolnar/a-...

"Violence is never the solution"

Anxiety is one of the most common mental health concerns, yet most men don’t talk about it or ask for help. This episode is called Facing Anxiety. music.youtube.com/podcast/9sUw...

While looks may open the door, trust should be earned through true personality, not charisma or curated image. Watch out for the dark triad. If you like them right away based on personality and looks, that's often a red flag. www.newsweek.com/psychopathy-...

@apnews.com @robgillies It's important to remember when referring to King Charles as head of state of Canada that you not style him as "III". Canada has only ever known one King Charles as head of state. #Canada #PMCanada apnews.com/article/cana...

An HIV diagnosis is no longer a death sentence. Yet despite this medical progress, a curious and painful paradox remains: many people newly diagnosed with HIV today still spiral into psychological and behavioural crises—even as their physical health is preserved. medium.com/@limolnar/po...

...One of my social work courses and a sketch I did that showed my background and how the future looks bright! :)

Yep. We knew this day was coming. You can expect many many more. Anyone that opposes the Dictator is going to be arrested. The US is no longer a nation of laws. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

One of the most misunderstood approaches to social work is compassionate care. Know what terms like "harm reduction", "radical acceptance", "anti-oppression" and "trauma-informed care" are, and are not? Here's a graphic to help you understand! #socialwork #harmreduction #trauma #mentalhealth

As a people manager for 4+ decades, clear & regular communication to be the most important thing in a work environment. My first immersive job was in early high school, and I believe strongly in the education, growth & independence that come through working — whether it’s paid, volunteer, or remote.

It's important for Canadians to unite in our commitment to support our nation's economy. That means buying Canadian first and European second. Watch your labels and choose a country other than the US to invest your vacation money.

Pic from the day I was honoured at the JS Woodsworth Human Rights and Equity Awards in the individual leadership category. A real privilege.

In the GTA, mental health support is more critical than ever. We must prioritize accessible, affordable services for all by expanding Medicare to include mental health. The alternative is a lower quality of life, higher healthcare costs, and increased strain on our communities. #MentalHealthMatters

In Toronto, it costs up to $100,000 per person per year to support someone experiencing homelessness through emergency services and healthcare. In comparison, housing subsidies costs around $30,000 per person annually, saving money and improving lives. #HousingFirst #EndHomelessness

According to an Association of Municipalities of Ontario report, at least 1,400 encampments were reported across Ontario in 2023. We need equity-based solutions to end homelessness. A body of research already points the way. www.wellesleyinstitute.com/housing/home...

Donald Trump says taxes would be lower if Canada🇨🇦 joined the US🇺🇸. This may be true if you don't pay taxes (ie billionaire, trust baby etc) but otherwise...

Ah, the glamourous days of being a business consultant! A highlight was doing a career day presentation for the kids. Who knew technical writing and accounting could be so enthralling?

Just checking to see if I live in a truth-based country. Turns out I do. 🇨🇦

Now more than ever we need to buy Canadian. Check the labels and reject US products! #BuyCanadian #CanadaFirst #tariffs #CanadaProud

People often ask me, as a small business person, why it is why I am a life-long member of the NDP @ndp.ca . Small business owners care for their community and citizens. We know their stories and share their lives. We are part of a community. The ultra-wealthy and corporations are not. That's why.

Now is not the time for the same-'ol, same-'ol. If we vote Conservative or Liberal we'll only get the same as we've always gotten: reduced services, shuttering of small businesses, employment insecurity, and abysmal infrastructure. I'll be on the front-lines, block-walking for the NDP. Vote NDP!🍊

Enjoyed the communications and messaging event held by ONDY yesterday. Now in my 35th year as a member of the @ndp.ca, I'm feeling the energy of a positive campaign that works for the working class!
