running vs yoga
My primary form of exercise is running, and I love it. But I've been trying to get more into yoga, too, in part because I don't currently do any strength/flexibility training and also because I think it could help with my anxiety (running helps, but I think yoga might help in some different ways). Is there anyone here who does both? Which do you prefer and why... and how do you balance the two?

Seeking advice for dealing with a toxic manager and his employee who report to me. Six months ago, my executive director asked me to take on a new small team. She asked that I focus on documenting what they do and try to eliminate non value-add activities (a company initiative). I have spent the last six months trying to better understand what they do. Every question I ask is taken as an accusation. Every suggestion I make is met with resistance or sarcasm. Every meeting with this manager turns into a gripe session and loads of time wasted on talking about the past (pre-merger with another co) and how things were perfect but now so terrible. He and his employee bash the company constantly and point fingers but never take accountability. They refuse to include me in meetings and I often find out issues second hand.
I have not had to deal with such resistance in the past so this is a growth opportunity for me. My other teams are content. We work together to automate, eliminate and try tackle things that move the needle with ease and great success. (Very collaboratively).…
