Rosie Harlow - Editor

Writing has always been my therapy, and for as long as I can remember I have always used paper as a punching bag. I need to carve out time just for me, I never get bored, and nothing pleases me more than imagining, thinking, and reflecting. I am passionate about all topics, but I naturally gravitate toward themes centered on love and relationships.

ā¤ļø A little Dr Love? Maybe so, but what I really like is understanding how simple encounters can upset us, change us, push us to surpass ourselves or... traumatize us too. How feelings are born and what they do to us. And when we talk about love, we talk about sex, and on this subject too, with me, there's no taboo!

šŸ“– As for my work, I've always wanted to make a living from book publishing. I don't think I've ever dreamed of doing another job... except that, in the team, I'm not the one who stands out for great professional ambition. My career in publishing ended up flopping, but, all the same, I ended up joining the Wengo team in 2016.

ā­ My dream of happiness: Rediscovering the world through the eyes of a child

ā­ My heroes: All the people who have a thousand lives in one and are able to start from scratch to live the next one.

Why Do I Feel Empty? - How To Overcome This Nothingness

Iā€™ve recently lost my zest for life and donā€™t really want to do anything anymore. I no longer feel complete and am in a constant downward, draining spiral. The sense of emptiness inside me is difficult to fill, yet, I still want to believe that I can experience joy once again. I donā€™t want to let this nothingness beat me, although, I currently feel like Iā€™ve lost my connection to my soul, and I am struggling to live a fulfilling life. Why am I here? Whatā€™s my purpose in life? Let's take a look at what characterizes this feeling of numbness and look for solutions that will make us feel a lot better.

Can A Narcissist Change?

If youā€™ve ever had the pleasure or in this case displeasure to meet someone with narcissistic tendencies, youā€™ll probably already have a firm opinion on the question above. Indeed, folks with this particular mental health condition lack empathy, have inflated egos, and can be extremely harmful to our mental health. The truth is, their toxic personality traits are so deeply ingrained in them, that embarking on the process of changing and becoming better people is an extremely difficult mission for them. Most experts would agree that in the majority of cases, it is in fact mission impossible, so without further ado, here is why change is so unlikely in people with NPD (narcissistic personality disorders).

The 4 Main Causes Of Unhappiness At Work

Work is a priority for most of us, so much so that weā€™re sometimes prepared to accept anything. We cling to a job for fear of losing it, sometimes even if it means suffering a thousand ills rather than being unemployed. Whether in small or large companies, office life can sometimes be a very bad experience for employees and can even be the cause of ā€œofficephobiaā€. But how can we detect the real causes of this unhappiness at work?

Iā€™ve Decided, Iā€™m Going To Stop Complaining At Work

Letā€™s face it, there are many reasons to complain at work: the boredom, the lack of motivation, the stress of not finishing on time, the unpleasant remarks from your boss, the never-ending meetings and now added to all that, having to wear a mask all day. To be perfectly honest, yes, there are reasons to complain. Does it do any good? No, not really. Moaning doesnā€™t help at all and worse, it puts us in a bad mood for the day. It's time to stop complaining at work and instead rise to the challenge of being positive!

Professional Recognition

When I was still a student doing an internship, I will always remember something my manager told me: ā€œAt work, you donā€™t need your bossā€™s recognition. As long as they pay you, it means youā€™re doing your job well, and you donā€™t need anything else.ā€ At the time, this sentence made complete sense to me. Several years later, Iā€™ve experienced a boss who paid me but who also spent all day humiliating me, putting me down and yelling at meā€¦ I understood that a salary wasnā€™t enough. Professional recognition is an essential part of life and well-being at work.

10 Quotes About Freedom, Because We Sure Need It!

Ah, freedom, there's nothing quite like it. We have all learned how precious it is during these last months with the Covid-19 pandemic. Many of our liberties have been challenged, especially when it comes to moving around and traveling. To go where we want, when we want, is fundamental, but so is being able to make the choices for ourselves. A life without these privileges would be much less exciting! So, to remember the importance of freedom, here are 10 quotes to keep in mind.

Is Working With Your Partner A Good Or Bad Idea?

Sharing everything with your partner is a sign of a healthy relationship for some people, even when it comes to working. However, that being said, for others, working with their partner just seems like a bad idea and the perfect recipe for tension. Do we need to separate our personal and professional lives, or is it okay to blur the lines and mix everything? After all, what could do wrong? Find out how to cope when your significant other is also your coworker!

What Is Love Bombing?

You may not be familiar with the term love bombing, but this bittersweet composition of words is certainly traumatizing enough to send a few shivers down your spine. This term does indeed refer to a cycle of narcissistic abuse which normally occurs at the beginning of a relationship. This intense period of abuse certainly paves the way for a truly unhealthy relationship, yet, many of us, (myself included) fail to recognize the red flags involved because our partners often seem so caring and implicated. So, without further ado, discover the indications your partner is using this devious manipulation tactic against you.

I Hate Animals, But Does That Make Me Cruel?

How cute is this little dog / this little catā€¦ Certainly in pictures, but much less so on my lap! I try to get away from animals more than I love them. Those who judge me to be cruel donā€™t think about the inconvenience of having an animal at home or the fear I might feel. I really donā€™t like animals, Iā€™m even afraid of them, but where does this phobia come from? Letā€™s take a look.

What A Superiority Complex Means And What It Affects

The superiority complex definition refers to a person who seems to believe that they are better than everyone else. These people often talk about themselves in glowing terms and choose to make fun of those they believe are less worthy of them. They also try to take over and always seem to judge things as being beneath them. Although these folks may seem confident, they are in fact cruelly lacking in self-esteem. On that note, welcome to the paradox of the superiority complex, which ironically in 90% of cases hides an inferiority complex!
