Month of May

I don’t do resolutions, and I find SMART goal setting very limiting and frankly annoying (don’t tell my team haha). While some people need SMART goals, personally I find my creative process works best if I generally know where I’m going, but remain flexible with how I get there and how it turns out. Instead, I set annual “targets” but I think of them more like broad shapes or intentions (like vision planning). Some of them are “SMARTer” than others but not entirely. Is that the same thing as a resolution? In any case, I’ve used the Full Focus Planner by Michael Hyatt for a few years and I highly recommend it. It’s a system like EOS (Traction) but more for personal intentions. I hit almost all of my intentions last year and it’s done wonders for my shiny object syndrome.

Rolling out the red carpet for April! But before we move forward, let's take a moment to celebrate our victories from March. What has brought you immense pride last month? For me, life decided to play a game of 'dodgeball'. However, instead of dodging, I've learned to take the hits and keep pushing ahead. Juggling life, career, and the pursuit of knowledge simultaneously can appear as daunting as tightrope walking. Still, I'd like to offer you a different angle. Could it be that these so-called obstacles are not blockades, but stepping stones paving our path towards growth and resilience? A bit unconventional way to look at things? Maybe. But what if we allow this slight shift of viewpoint to unlock boundless possibilities? I'd love to hear about your moments of insights and lessons learned. Here's to an empowering April, ready to embrace the journey of growth, resilience, and determination. Let's strive to not just survive, but to thrive!

A good focus point to start 2024…every small step can count.

Marching into March with PURPOSE! 🍀 Happy 1st of March, everyone! 🎉 As we step into this new month, I'm filled with an overwhelming sense of excitement and possibility. March isn't just a date on the calendar; it's a symphony of opportunity, a canvas upon which we can paint our aspirations and dreams. 🌷 With the arrival of March comes the promise of spring, a season synonymous with renewal and rebirth. Just as nature sheds its winter coat and bursts forth with new life, so too can we shed the constraints of the past and embrace a fresh start. 💼 This month, let's set our sights high and our ambitions even higher. Whether you're a seasoned professional or just starting out on your journey, now is the perfect time to recalibrate your goals, refine your strategies, and chart a course towards success. 🚀 But let's not forget that success is not a solo endeavor; it's a collaborative effort fueled by the support and encouragement of those around us. So let's come together as a community, lifting each other up, sharing our knowledge and experiences, and celebrating each other's victories along the way. I'm thrilled to embark on this journey with all of you. Together, let's make March a month to remember—a month of growth, achievement, and endless possibility. #MarchingIntoMarch #NewBeginnings #GoalSetting #GrowthMindset #Networking #Success #Community

My new blog before the end of the year.

🌟 Reflecting on Juneteenth and New Beginnings 🌟 Yesterday was Juneteenth, a day of profound liberation and reflection. To celebrate, I decided to embark on a new adventure: learning how to golf 🏌🏾♀️ ! 🎉 Decked out in my vibrant and stylish golf attire, and with my natural hair in its full glory, I embraced this new challenge. Juneteenth reminds me to fervently pursue the promise for liberation - the freedom to show up as our true selves in spaces that once excluded us. It's about choosing ourselves, whether it's convenient or not. This theme resonates deeply with a personal milestone in my life: stepping down as CEO. It was a journey of self-liberation, filled with lessons and growth. In my blog post, I delve into this journey of choosing myself, the challenges, the triumphs, and the continuous path towards true liberation. While we still have a long way to go to fully realize liberation in society, I believe that if we can't activate it within ourselves, it will be difficult to embrace it when the world finally lives up to the promise--freedom for all. I invite you to read my blog, reflect on your own journey, and join the conversation. Your thoughts, shares, likes, and comments mean the world to me. 🌍✨ Read more about my journey - https://lnkd.in/e3fBpnUp Thank you for reading! 💖 #Juneteenth #SelfLiberation #NewBeginnings #ChooseYou #GolfAdventures #PersonalGrowth #BlogPost #ReflectAndShare
