Roundtable: National Start Over Day

 

A breakup. A job layoff. An unmet goal. When failure, loss and disappointment happen, sometimes the best thing you can do is press reset. Today is National Start Over Day, and if you need a second (or third, fourth or fifth) chance, you’ll be encouraged by our guests’ stories as they share what it’s like to start over when life knocks you down.

Culture: Is It Time to Propose?

 

Some people date for years, others for only a few months. There’s not a one-size-fits-all approach to moving toward marriage, but there is wisdom in knowing when to get engaged. What should you know about your boyfriend or girlfriend? About yourself? How can you tell the difference between cold feet and red flags? Bob Paul is a marriage therapist with both expertise and cautionary tales aplenty. He’ll help you parse out what you must know before deciding to tie the knot.
