The Origin Story

I’ve had a good handful of blogs and a handful of online spaces that I’ve created to speak my mind. But at 38 years of age, I finally think I’ve pieced it together. This isn’t to say that I won’t grow or alter my why. I think we should all do that - reassess at pivotal points in life’s journey. But what I feel sure about, is that I don’t want to leave this earth known as ‘the woman who worked her life away’. 

I’ve been struggling to figure out who I am apart from my career…

until yesterday.

I had yet another zoom meeting (thank you pandemic of 2020) with a group of girlfriends, who I really consider my sisters, and we talked about the results of our ULT assessments. It’s basically another personality test, but with eerily crazy TRUE results. My mom gifted Marcus and I with the test so that we could understand each other better and improve our marriage. But this time, I viewed the results through the lens of understanding who I am as a person.

And booooy, let me tell you. Every so called doubt, concern, negative feeling, etc. I’ve felt about myself was eradicated. (Well not EVERY, but you know what I mean.) I won’t go into details of what my personality assessment says, but basically while I am a natural born leader per the assessment (hence the multi brands), MY LARGEST MOTIVATOR or the feature of myself that must be fed and honored so I can reach my destination successfully, is the need to recharge and refuel. 

I mean this isn’t earth-shattering news, but to see it ranked as THE THING that I need to prioritize the most, blew my mind. And so within a day, I created this website, changed my mission and… here we go. 

I’m not great at self-care. Work-life balance is hard for me. So to keep this piece of me in the front seat, so to speak, I’ll be here. Writing lessons, sharing stories, explaining my failures and hopefully inspiring you to join me on the journey to finding your life’s harmony
