Be Yourself

When I turned 35, I got to this point where I was in the corporate office. I had my own office. I had gotten the VP title, and I felt so empty inside. And what I realized in that moment was being a VP in this company wasn't actually allowing me to do what I'm really meant to do in this world, which is to be myself. And I realized, I realized a lot of women especially need the encouragement to know that it's okay to have a voice. It's okay to share your truth. It's okay to feel like you're not good enough and do it anyway. So, one of the things that's just recently been happening to me is I've realized that I need to actually share my voice more fully with the world. And I realized that the more truth I can share in my story, in the things that I've struggled with, the more people are actually out there that want to also recognize that's part of their story, too. But we can actually overcome it together. And so, just recently, I started to share my voice more fully with people on social media. And Steve was a huge advocate for helping me be in my light, helping me share my gifts. And what I started to notice was people were resonating. And so many women out there were saying to me, I feel you and I hear you because I have those same thoughts inside my head.
