### Kepler at Home: Rebecca Ryan

## Remember your own resilience
*Welcome to the first edition of Kepler at Home. While we’re all adjusting to new schedules and ways of working, Kepler leaders share their thoughts, personally and professionally — how they stay motivated, moving, and the new traditions they are starting.*
At Kepler, we’re lucky to able to work from home in the midst of this crisis. But even after 6+ weeks of practice, it’s tough to be positive and productive every day.
Rebecca Ryan, our head of HR & Talent, has been with Kepler since 2013. Unlike most Comets, she’s used to working remotely — Becca moved from New York City to Denver a few years ago. Even being a WFH expert, Becca is still feeling the challenges of working from home during a pandemic.
It can be hard not to feel overwhelmed, but as I’ve grappled with all the ups and downs, what I’ve strived for is balance. When I’m feeling negative, I remind myself that it’s for good reason and I’ll feel positive again too. When the negativity lingers too long, I rely on a few tricks that restore that balance. Some of the things that work for me are:
- Watching literally any video on the Bon Appetit Test Kitchen [YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbpMy0Fg74eXXkvxJrtEn3w).
- Rereading a favorite book (I’m not sure how my copy of Bossypants by Tina Fey is still intact, because I’ve read it a zillion times).
- Sticking to my routines. I dragged myself out of bed to exercise every day this week and it was worth it every time.
- Reminding myself of examples of my own resilience. I’ve overcome challenges, anxiety, and uncertainty before, so I can do it again.
- Leaning on my support network. That includes my wonderful colleagues at Kepler, my friends and family, and — of course — my dog :-)

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by negativity today, try taking a page from Becca’s book. Or if you don’t have a copy of Bossypants at home, just take a moment to enjoy the photo of her adorable dog!
