Project Description
Meet Sarah!
In your view, what is special about meditation?
It allows my mental chatter to subside, as a deep calm comes over me. In that still place, I begin to feel unity within myself and a sense of purpose that empowers me. Solutions to some of life’s complexities pop into mind, and I experience a level of creativity absent in moments of extreme stress.
Why do you think meditation belongs in the corporation?
I think a corporation’s goods and/or services are only as effective as the people from which the corporation is comprised. Those people can make or break the corporate mission. If they feel like they are making a meaningful contribution to the corporation, and one that is acknowledged, then they have the potential of creating a fertile environment of innovation. Daily corporate life can present obstacles and challenges to splinter the employee teamwork needed for this endeavor. Meditation can help to inspire and bring these individuals together as teams to collectively carry the corporation’s mission forward.
What character traits do your colleagues seek in you?
They seek an empathetic listener with integrity who can provide objective advice in a considerate manner, and who can assist them in finding creative solutions to various situations in which they or their clients find themselves.
Growing up, what was your dream job?
As long as I can remember, I wanted to have a career where I could be part of something bigger than myself. It ran the gamut from school teacher to government official before I settled on Law.
What is your favorite place on earth?
Walking on a warm beach at sunrise before the day wakes up and everything is fresh.
What is your most important food?
Answering this question literally, I’d say Avocados for sure. They’re healthy, tasty, and filling, which is a rare combination when it comes to food.
When not volunteering, what can we find you doing?
Working in the legal field to develop resolutions tailored to fit clients’ needs, while navigating the intricacies of one of the larger and more exciting urban jungles… New York!
