#BreakThings: She Shattered That Glass Ceiling

09.22.20

Today’s issue starts off by celebrating the life of SCOTUS Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and finishes with a little bit of good advice that we could all use in these difficult times. Let’s break something!

Justice Ginsburg had the most enviable marriage of all time.  Read more about her partner, Marty Ginsburg, and learn why picking the right partner (or no partner at all) may be the most important thing that a woman will ever do. 

And if you haven’t see the movie On the Basis of Sex about RBG’s life and legacy as champion for women’s rights, don’t miss it.

If you loved RBG, these fun pieces of memorabilia will let you own a reminder of her tenacity and strength. Shop them, here.

Having trouble staying productive? Who isn’t?! 

Career Contessa has a three-step reset that will save you from doom-scrolling and get you back on track. Resuscitate your concentration, and finish today strong.

Cooking burnout is real. Last night, I stared into the cupboard for 20-minutes willing an idea to appear. We ordered gyros. Sure, it was an idea, but ordering this much Seamless is contracting my bank account and expanding my waistline. 

Luckily, The Kitchn has a whole series just for burnt out cooks.

I’m trying to make time for myself every afternoon, but I don’t always have time for a daily sanity walk. When I can’t leave my desk, I do a five-minute meditation from Headspace to clear my mind and lift me up. 

Even if you think meditation isn’t your thing, give this one a try. The results might surprise you.

That was fun. Let’s do it again tomorrow! And don’t forget to tell your friends.
