Happy first Sunday of 2015! I hope everyone is well, and starting this new year in great spirits! 2014 has definitely been a milestone year for me, and I can’t thank enough each and everyone of you for your continued support to The Corporate Sister! As we are stil toasting to a new year full of health, joy, success and prosperity, here are the news that rocked this brand new year:

  1. The sports community is mourning the loss of longtime ESPN actor Stuart Scott, here’s an ESPN video legacy of this incredible man, while The Root reminds us of the touching speech he gave when receiving the ESPY award. RIP!;
  2. The Cut made me smile as I read how Vogue got the most diverse covers this year;
  3. As New Year’s health resolutions are now all the rage, Harvard Business Review reveals that for leaders, looking healthy matters more than looking smart;
  4. As you’re getting ready to get into the swing of this New Year, Essence Magazine pinpoints 5 ways to put yourself first;
  5. For all the Millenials out there, the Daily Muse lists 4 ways to achieve work-life balance in 2015 (and it got me at tip#1);
  6. As we’re looking back on 2014, NPR has a wonderful list of the 50 wonderful things from last year;

Fast Company inspired me with this article about how busy people manage to make more time to read, as Mashable reports Marck Zuckerberg is also on the “reading more” bandwagon (check out his page “A Year of Books“);
  9. Daily Worth writes about the one piece of money advice you’ll need in 2015;
