A decade-long study of older women found that tea drinkers had slightly stronger bones, while moderate coffee drinking caused no harm. Heavy coffee intake—over five cups a day—was linked to lower bone density, especially in women who consumed more alcohol. Tea’s benefits may stem from catechins that support bone formation. The researchers say small daily habits could make a meaningful difference over time. Read more ›

There’s a reason emotional intelligence keeps showing up in research about what separates good leaders from great ones, successful relationships from failing ones, and people who navigate life smoothly from those who constantly hit walls. Studies have consistently shown that EQ often matters more than IQ when it comes to career success, relationship satisfaction, and ... Read more Read more ›

If you had met me in my early twenties, you would have met someone who believed discipline was something you were either born with or you weren’t. I genuinely thought successful people had some rare inner circuitry the rest of us didn’t. They woke up early because it was “natural” for them. They stayed consistent ... Read more Read more ›

I’ve been watching my friends navigate their relationships with their aging parents, and there’s a pattern I can’t ignore. Some people talk to their parents daily. Others manage a obligatory call on holidays. A few have cut contact almost entirely. The difference isn’t random. It comes down to specific behaviors that accumulate over decades and ...

My sister rang me the other day, a bit emotional. She’d just spent the afternoon with our dad and her daughter, and something had shifted. They’d been in the garden together, the three of them. Dad was showing his granddaughter how to plant tomatoes, patiently explaining about spacing and depth, letting her make mistakes without ... Read more Read more ›

The class that insists it’s “comfortable but not rich” while sending their kids to schools that cost more than the median income. Nobody thinks they’re upper middle class. I’ve noticed this pattern since I started writing about class. People earning $300,000 call themselves middle class.

I have a confession to make. My partner’s dad is in his late sixties, and the guy moves better than me and most people I know in their thirties.

I watched a guy at my gym spend forty minutes on his phone between sets last week. Same routine he’s had for years. Same weight. Same results. Or lack of them. It got me thinking about how many of us are stuck in loops we don’t even notice. We say we want to progress, but ... Read more Read more ›

My father spent thirty years in sales management, getting passed over for promotions repeatedly, staying loyal to companies that weren’t loyal to him. For most of those years, he seemed fine.

Here’s a common misconception that gets repeated everywhere: if you want to accomplish more, you need to work harder. More hours. More hustle. More grind.
