👋🏼 Hello Reader, Last week, I had the joy of spending quality time with my family as we celebrated my kiddo's transition from high school to university. It’s such an exciting time for us. Throughout the week, we encountered some pretty intense moments. Instead of trying to control everything or force outcomes, I asked a lot of questions, particularly, "What do you need right now that would make things a little easier?" This approach was invaluable, helping both overwhelmed grandparents and graduates get through the week. This experience reminded me that we often push through challenges without truly understanding what we are pushing towards or where we want to go. Fittingly, I recently had the opportunity to discuss navigating career transitions on the Painting Your Path™ Podcast with Clarissa Castillo-Ramsey.

It’s a time for me to be surrounded by like-minded people who all want the world to be a little softer and kinder. It’s a place where I get to celebrate people and the power of community accompanied by...
Hey Reader, Did you know my first job was yard maintenance? Oh yes. For several summers, my best friend and I went around town painting fences, weeding gardens, and cutting grass. We had A LOT of fun! A lot has changed since then, and I could not be happier with what I do now. I have just as much passion for career development since starting my coaching and consulting business in 2018. It’s truly amazing that I get to connect with folks across the globe to equip them with the tools and...
