Throughout the week, keep an eye out for all the habits that keep you on edge - like waking up super late, putting off projects, leaving texts on read, driving around on E - and make it your mission to stop. Get the gas, answer your friend, set the alarm. Even if you just change one thing, it could relieve some pressure, and add some much-needed structure into your schedule.

DEAR MISS MANNERS: I frequently attend team lunches and dinners with my immediate department members, both supervisors and associates. These dining experiences are mostly personal affairs and come after a week of hard teamwork. We work in an industry where we will be in one location for a few months, and then move on to another city. We all get along and have each other's back.

So much of the industry is based on experience and not education. You can learn all the lessons yourself, but it will take a lot longer. Learning from people who have seen enough things to have a strong intuition can help you be better and faster. In part, this is because the field is always changing. As bad actors constantly improve their techniques, the defenders must respond.

McGinley.)

When I first came on, I was a little nervous about how it was going to be, but everyone was super welcoming especially the older girls, says Sunshine, 23, who has been on the team since 2022. It was very, let's lift up these rookies.' Veteran racer Nina O'Brien even wrote welcoming notes to all the newcomers. That was super nice, Sunshine says.

I moved to the US from India in August 2021 to pursue a master's degree in computer science at the University of Southern California. Soon after, I began looking for a summer internship - but things didn't go as planned.

If I got one thing right as a young person, it's that I always chose jobs based on who I would work for,

When I was younger, at 8, I loved building things. I started coding very early. Then I turned 12, I did this entrepreneurship program, and I got really into it. I kept trying to build these companies, these little side projects, but nothing took off. Eventually, I realized a really important thing you need to have is knowledge. I knew nothing about tech or venture capital. I decided to learn everything the best way I could, which is by talking to the most knowledgeable people.

This time next year, Joellah Fletcher plans to be prepping or taking her final exams to become a certified Red Seal carpenter. The determined, level 2 carpentry apprentice from outside Stratford, Ont., has had a fairly straightforward path since choosing a trade rather than university. She took carpentry co-op placements and a dual-credit opportunity in Grade 12, which led to a pre-apprenticeship college program that matched her with her current employer.

Coach John Beam changed my life when I was a 14-year-old kid on the Skyline High football field. I still remember getting flattened in a varsity drill and looking up to see Beam standing over me, demanding more because he saw more. That was his gift. He coached football, but he taught manhood: accountability, discipline, belief in yourself long before you earned it. Beam fought for me in the classroom, pushed me on the field and helped me get to college when the odds weren't in my favor.

In a scene as idyllic as a Norman Rockwell painting, Elevate Tutoring fellow Mia Matute sat at a dining table with her 12-year-old tutee, Kaycie Grant, as golden hour light shone on the fractions of a paper worksheet as they worked together one Friday evening in the Oakland hills.

CHELSEA, Manhattan -- For over 30 years, Hearts of Gold, a grassroots nonprofit, has been reshaping what's possible for single mothers and their children living in New York City shelters. The approach? Break the cycle of poverty not just with services, but with belief. Before the job training, the paid internships, and the workshops, it all starts with one thing: reminding a mother that she matters.

How does one begin to describe the indelible impact an icon has had on so many lives? How can we thank her for having stood with us from day 1, championing key issues, and being a part of our community?

Since I joined Google in 2018, it has been amazing to see the impact I've had. I started at Google Bangalore in India, where I was part of a team using machine learning and AI on Google Maps.

More than two dozen students attend the after-school program once per week. Every other week, they come dressed to the nines in suits and ties.
