When I started my YouTube channel, it was because I wanted to build confidence speaking to the camera and with my public speaking. My first 20 videos were cringe, I didn’t have a great camera or know anything about editing. Many, many videos and takes later, I have stuck with it. I spoke with Steve in MM Last December when they were growing their YT to increase their subscribers to 10k. I decided that I want to stick with it, and hit the next milestone, which was 300 subs. And…. Even though it didn’t happen in December. I did it!! Whaaaat?! So, as I turn 40 tomorrow, I give myself a pat on the back. I am finding my people online, building my community. And I can’t be anymore grateful. Thanks, everyone, for infusing the supportive vibe this mama needed to be bold. What are you proud of today, so we can celebrate together.

My boss came in and told me my job was ending six months earlier than planned. I was devastated. I had given everything to that team and in the end, I felt like just a number. I was grateful to have a job to return to, but it meant 50% weekends when I hadn’t been working any before, and working in a department I didn’t feel connected to. I felt dismissed. Disempowered. Angry. Not long after, I started noticing signs of compassion fatigue and burnout, instead of pushing harder, I paused and asked for help. People in this community, offered empathy, asked thoughtful questions about where my safe spaces are, and encouraged me to be honest inside my own Skool community. That reminder to be kind to myself landed deeply. Today, I trained at a new job and I’m holding space for whatever unfolds next. I’m also feeling the nudge to lean more fully into my coaching because every hard season teaches us how to meet others with more depth, compassion, and truth. If you’re walking through something hard right now, you’re not behind. This is part of the work. ✨ Reflection for you: Where could you soften instead of pushing this week? And who feels safe enough to tell the truth to? You don’t have to carry it alone. We’re here together. 💛 @Stijn Van Den Bossche @Bente Grytøyr @Ingmar Mareen @Natasha Fernandez @Mark Lawrence @Cathy Sue Carpenter @Elizabete Hiršsone @Benjamin Ross @Ruth Levesque
