10-Minute Blog (TMB)

This chapter an experiment in creative yet disciplined writing.  Once a week, I practice writing for 10 minutes about a top-of-mind topic and post whatever comes out.  It’s about getting out of my comfort zone, about being imperfect and about being even more vulnerable.

May 2020: Empathy’s Moment

May 2020: Empathy’s Moment

Caroline TrudeauMay 18, 20200
Empathy is having a moment. It’s been around for a while. The word originates from Greek and was translated in English for the first time from Einfühlung, German for feeling in, in the early 1900s. We have been studying it and using it for literally 100 years. Empathy is the ability to sense other people’s ...

Caroline TrudeauMay 10, 20202
Actually, I am. I’ve been alone for 57 days. Everything I do is alone. — May is Mental Health Awareness month. Respect. I hear and read that apparently, I am not alone, pretty much everywhere I look these days . Mostly on social media. On tv. And at work. I get it. You want to ...

2020: More Writing

Caroline TrudeauJanuary 18, 2020
I need to write for The Voices more. It’s a 2020 goal. Writing for myself. And for the 2 or 3 fans who read everything I write: you know who you are. Thank you. All I’ve been doing is writing for work. For audience of 170-ish, to whom I mostly send emails that many are ...

TMB: My Writer’s Block

Caroline TrudeauJanuary 27, 20192
  In doing some maintenance on The Voices Collection today, I realized that I haven’t written anything for the blog in almost a month.  Thoughts of doubt came rushing to my head: how are you calling yourself a writer, a blogger, if you aren’t even writing?! So many thing have happened since I last wrote: ...

Caroline TrudeauDecember 21, 20188

TMB: From Fear to Freedom

Caroline TrudeauNovember 18, 20181
  When I started using my voice to express who I am and stand in my truth, without the constraints of an establishment’s rules dictating my expectations or requiring a certain behavior, I began a journey to finding my words. I’ve been practicing using my words to describe my present reality and my wishes for ...

TMB: Listening to Language

Caroline TrudeauNovember 9, 20180
  I’ve just arrived Cascais, a small resort town some 30km west of Lisbon.  Reflecting on a week of inspiration and mental stimulation at a conference in the lively Portuguese capital, I am enjoying this quaint and quiet town.  As I stroll down its city center streets, I listen.  At first, to silence.  Then, I ...

TMB: The Glamour of Travel

TMB: The Glamour of Travel

Caroline TrudeauNovember 3, 20180
  I’ve been a traveling fool. Since 2012, I’ve preferred an airplane ride to Detroit, San Francisco, Dallas, Munich and a train to NYC/NJ to the commute on DC’s silver line. This year, in my touristing expéditions to Mexico and Germany, in the often lengthy process of reaching these international destinations, I’ve enjoyed the luxuries ...

TMB: Why I Love Germany 1

TMB: Why I Love Germany 1

Caroline TrudeauOctober 26, 20180
  A couple of women approached me today at an S-Bahn stop. One of them began speaking to me in German. Surely, they are looking for directions, I thought.  “I’m sorry, I don’t speak German. Do you speak English?”  As we proceeded to communicate in my second yet primary language, I wasn’t exactly surprised with how I instinctively ...

Dreaming of traveling. I don’t know when I took Dreaming of traveling.

I don’t know when I took this photo or where I was going. 

I know this is one of IAD’s runways.

It had to be a small, somewhat empty flight for me to be on the window. I am an aisle girl. 

Yet, I can’t wait to sit at a window seat again. 

Any seat. Any window.
