In this edition of The Human Side of Work, I’m exploring something we all contribute to: the way we communicate with one another at work.

From tone and assumptions to listening, disagreement, and everyday conversations, the way coworkers speak to each other can strengthen connection—or quietly create disconnection.

This edition offers practical reminders for communicating with greater clarity, respect, and intention, while considering one important question: What does it feel like to communicate with you at work?

Have You Ever Walked Away From a Conversation With a Coworker and Thought, “What Was THAT About?” Maybe it was their tone. Maybe an email felt unnecessarily sharp, someone interrupted you, or a coworker responded in a way that left you wondering whether you had done something wrong.

📸 Selfies Mean Something Different to Me

Since the rise of the selfie, they’ve sometimes gotten a bad rap—seen as attention-seeking or superficial.

For me, taking and posting a selfie became a sign of healing. There was a time when low self-esteem and the words of others shaped how I saw myself. Doing the inner work helped me begin seeing myself differently.

Today, as a trauma-informed coach, part of the work I do is supporting people as they recognize something important: you are more than the words, labels, and opinions other people have placed on you.

If you’re working on believing in yourself, start here:

1️⃣ Challenge the labels.
Ask yourself: Is this really what I believe about myself, or is this something someone else taught me to believe?

2️⃣ Speak to yourself differently.
Pay attention to your inner dialogue. Replace constant criticism with words that acknowledge your growth, strengths, and humanity.

3️⃣ Collect evidence of your growth.
Notice the things you do today that an earlier version of you struggled to do. Confidence isn’t always one big transformation. Sometimes it’s built through dozens of small moments that say, Look how far I’ve come.

And that brings me right back to selfies. 📸❤️

I feel GREAT taking them now—not because I need a picture to tell me my worth, but because I genuinely feel good about who I am.

And that is what the selfie means to me. 💕

When setting out to create hair oil that would nourish and moisturize the hair and scalp and not feel heavy, one of the main ingredients I reached for was Sweet Almond Oil.
