When the final structures are taken down and Black Rock City disappears back into the Nevada desert, what remains of Burning Man is memory. For those who travelled thousands of miles to be there, it lingers in dust-covered clothes, in the echo of music, in the sudden quiet after a week of constant motion. For those who didn’t make it, the event is a handful of viral clips or news reports about traffic jams and weather. This year, one incredible short film has cut through the noise. The Sound of Burning Man, a two-and-a-half minute piece by Emmy and Webby Award-winning duo BonaMaze, has been shared…

In the modern workplace, pressure is often treated as a productivity issue. But beneath missed deadlines, broken communication, or poor team morale, there’s often something more subtle happening. According to Cedric Bertelli, founder of the Emotional Health Institute, many of these problems trace back to unresolved emotional reactions that play out quietly and repeatedly — even in top performers. Bertelli is the co-developer of Emotional Resolution, or EmRes, a somatic approach to emotional health. It’s based on a simple idea with broad implications: that emotional reactions often stem from the body’s prediction system, not the present moment. When the brain…

When Chris Cullen walks into a room, he brings more than just a polished keynote or a neatly designed workshop deck. He brings the grit of a Division 1 baseball captain, the resilience of a professional athlete who fought for every inning, and the strategic discipline of a Fortune 500 sales leader who once delivered more than $100 million in capital sales. His story isn’t just about the stages he speaks on today. It’s about the journey from the dugout to the boardroom, and now to the global speaking circuit, where he is redefining what high-performance leadership really looks like.…

For decades, the default setting for corporate retreats in the United States was a predictable mix of hotel ballrooms, boxed lunches, and evening cocktails in the lobby bar. That formula worked well enough in an era when business travel was built around convenience and cost. Today, though, many executives are asking a different set of questions. Where can a team truly connect? How do you create an environment that feels less like another meeting and more like a reset? Increasingly, the answer is not found in a hotel. It’s coming from luxury private estates. Drip Castle Estate Collection, which manages…

Walk through any London high street and you’ll see it: the cafés spilling out pastries, the endless grab-and-go lunches, the pubs offering meal deals that tempt even the strongest resolve. Add in long commutes, late nights, and the rising cost of healthy food, and it’s no wonder that waistlines across the capital have been quietly expanding. Health authorities have been warning for years that obesity rates in London and across the UK are climbing. For many people, it isn’t about vanity or chasing a smaller size — it’s about rising risks of diabetes, heart disease, and other conditions that chip…

Christine Lowe doesn’t just make paintings, she builds windows into feeling. From her studio in Cape Breton, this Canadian artist turns memory, resilience, and the randomness of life into bold, tactile canvases that invite you closer. Her pieces are alive with colour — acrylic fields edged in raised lines you can almost feel beneath your fingers. It’s a style that recalls the certainty of stained glass while still leaving space for imagination to roam. As an art critic, it’s rare to encounter work that feels so physically present while still whispering in the language of emotion. Lowe’s paintings have that…
