Just because it is trending doesn’t mean we should be sending. Is the goal attention or intention? Do our words resonate with relevance, dispel misinformation and impel our audiences to hope over nope? #foodforthought #activeadvice #fuelsofengagement

What’s up? Music to my ears and my cup! More reasons caffeinated coffee and tea can be good for you! Decreased risk of dementia in those who consume caffeinated but not decaffeinated brews.

Are nutrition recommendations for some or all? Elitist, expensive, exclusive guidelines will not enable consumers to put healthier foods on their table. Why not emphasize foods that help to stretch not strain a food budget by encouraging not disparaging frozen, dried, boxed, jarred and canned.

As a health care professional do you tend more towards education or conversation. Collaboration is an essential component of motivation- we need to understand our patients situations, listen to learn and earn trust.

To be an effective communicator think about the importance of contemplation, consideration, collaboration, conversation over confrontation. Civility, humility, empathy , and developing rapport and trust is a must. Pause before you post, be curious, listen to learn with respect. #fuelsofengagement
