Georgiana Maria :) Born in Romania, currently live in Michigan (u.s.) January baby! I enjoy being active, hiking, walking, exercising, writing, reading, talking to others. I love my job. • Something you’re proud of: i love being able to show up for people. :) • One goal or dream for 2026: go to track nationals and maybe publish a book (unexpected little project) Are you data mining /social engineering, sir? hahahaha. :)

Okay, I know that you already saw these, but I'm adding them here. :) Here are some of my wins and also hopes for the upcoming quarter: 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 Worked towards putting my poetry together and put together a Guided Reflective Journal Poetry book. Currently in the process of being edited 𝗣𝗵𝘆𝘀𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 -Went to a track meet (showed me my current baseline, which is much lower than previous years due to lack of training in the past 6 months--opportunity for growth but also had a great time) -started personal training again -been more consistent at the gym the last few months :) -stopped drinking energy drinks!! (still having caffeine in iced coffee format, but I'm so proud that I'm off the energy drinks again!) -opportunity for growth: diet (decrease portion sizes just a bit and decrease sugar intake) and sleep 𝗦𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹/𝗣𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗠𝗲𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 -Reached out and started the process for the prison ministries--looking forward to seeing how this develops. :) -continued to be consistent in choir/church attendance but have been grappling with faith and so there is a great opportunity for growth here! :) 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹/𝗣𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘄𝘁𝗵 read the following books: Podvig The Power of Now Pissed Off with a Purpose: Waging War on Fear The Rhythm of Life The Art of Communicating The Let Them Theory The Scout Mindset (Top 3 from above: Pissed Off with a Purpose--got me activated in a really good way! , The Rhythm of Life, and The Art of Communicating). Actively participated in a few groups that have helped with building/maintaining discipline and have accountability and feel empowered towards maintaining momentum. 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 This may go along with spirituality too, but maintained a daily gratitude /journaling practice. This provided me with a sense of joy and being on the lookout for moments of awe. :) 𝗥𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀 Have been intentional about reaching out to individuals and trying to maintain strong bonds, specifically with people that feel aligned in life. There is opportunity for growth here though, particularly with familial relationships. :)

haha, Let's go!!!!!!!!!!! Love the Monday Motivation!! It reminds me of when first starting a new exercise at the gym (or starting the gym to begin with). Everything feels heavy and like things aren't happening and we have to start off with less weight. As we get stronger we add more weight--things can still be difficult but things that we once found hard are not as challening as they once were! The last time that I quit something--I stopped putting as much energy in a relationship and allowed it to breathe ( I was overcompensating). This was a good move because in this case less was actually more. It allowed the clarity to know where things actually stood. :) In general....I don't really quit. I pivot. I learn. I quit energy drinks!! :)

@Bruno Militz hahaha. Ms.Sparkles has entered the atmosphere. "The grass is greener wherever I am". hahahhahahahah. That's so funny. (I don't actually think THIS highly of myself, but it's good to laugh!)

@Bruno Militz 😂😂😂 a funsies Friday post!?!

Listened to this in the morning and there are so many great takeaways!!! I loved how you said to just notice our reaction without judgment. To just bring awareness so that we have a better understanding of how we react when we feel pressure. Awareness is step one to creating change :-) I love the opportunity to see where Old wounds might be activated and taking the opportunity to work through those independently so that in any given situation we actually react the situation at hand as opposed to our own past hurts

@Bruno Militz that's a really good question. I think that there are ways to not feel pressure, but I think having some level of feeling is appropriate if we care either about the topic or about the person or about the relationship. I think there is a difference between being enmeshed with whatever's going on versus being an observer that interacts intentionally and still cares.
