Raising Kids for a Resilient Future

by Peak Prosperity Admin

We are heading into a future that does not follow the rules and expectations that the past few generations have been raised to expect. Parents and caregivers, relatives, friends, mentors – it makes no difference; we are raising the current generation together. We are all newcomers to this changing landscape. How can we teach young people to thrive in a future we do not yet fully understand ourselves?

The Benefits of Wheatgrass

by Denis Korn

At some point in your weekly excursion to the grocery store or natural food market, you may have come across a product in the veggie aisle that looked a lot like someone had cut a big chunk out of your front lawn – a big chunk of grass in a little plastic container. You might have thought, Why are they selling rabbit food here? If so, let me be the first person to introduce you to the highly beneficial and healthy food (for humans) called wheatgrass.

Jennifer Winn: How to Successfully Transition to a ‘Great-Fit’ Career

by Adam Taggart

As many Peak Prosperity readers know, I was on a very different career track before opting out of the corporate race and teaming up with Chris.

To maximize my odds for success in transitioning not just to a new job, but also hopefully to a lifelong "great-fit" career, I spent a lot of time studying the science of career management and engaging with a platoon of professional consultants and executive coaches. Through this research, I learned that there are indeed time-honored practices that statistically and materially can improve your chances for identifying work that matches your aptitudes and passions AND for finding gainful employment in this new field.

Coworking & Business Incubation

by Hilarybethhodge

I'm coworking. I love my coworkers. I love “going into the office.” I love what I do. It's a strange thing for me to be writing because I don't have a “real job;” I got laid off from my “real job” two years ago. And, like many people, I haven't been able to find a “real job” since. So, like many people, I have carved out my own niche and grabbed opportunites when they appear. I adapted to the new realities of the world. Part of that new reality is a fabulous coworking community called Sierra Commons. They support my work. And, much to my own surprise, I have found work that I love.
