Better in Time ...

 Hello Family and Friends,

It’s been a while but fret not I have been busy with life and the podcast. If you have not been keeping up, well I’d like to wonder what’s wrong with you (LOL). No seriously though, it seems to be an interesting year for us all. With all the things that are happening, rather recorded, or done in the dark we are all feeling the remnants of a world shut down, financial uncertainly, government assistance, and life. With all that in mind, I am constantly wondering about my mental health and the mental health of others. The constant painted smiles, the fluffy light tones, and the outfits that attempt to cover our wounds. I am constantly wondering if we are all suffering in some way and doing all that we can to hang on for a better day. I think of the heavy spider hanging by one piece of thread prior to landing on the ground, safety. Well, if that isn’t your story, please be sure to spread some love (and teach us your ways), but for the rest of us, I want you to know it gets better in time.


Oftentimes, while I am going throughout the day I am constantly looking forward to the next season. I honestly, couldn’t be bothered with taking life one step at a time. Just as some of us love to live for the weekend, I too love to live for the best part. The part where all the suffering and pain makes sense. The part where the tears of sadness transition to tears of joy! The part where laughter is just the easier thing rather than the heavier emotions, I am constantly living for that moment. However, I am no rookie in this life and while I know the “best part” moments exist, I also know the other parts are inevitable.

Time, a very unexplainable happening in life but indeed apart of life. Time, everything revolves around it and yet we are the last ones who want to accept that in this life, everything takes time. These moments that we are looking to experience, the good ones, the fun ones, the precious ones take time. But, in the meantime, let's meditate on this one thing; life is all about either about to go through, going through, or coming out. And no matter the direction or the stage of the cycle you are in, all things get better in time. So, allow time to take its time, as we continue to strive for the best parts and remember all the good that is to come while going through all the other parts.

Sincerely,

Sara J.

GIRLS TRIP !?!?

  Let me just start this blog post off humbly and honest, I am by no means an expert by degree or certification but I can offer some wisdom cause I have been around the “ Girls Trip “ block several times. And, I don’t want to toot my own horn, but let’s just say I am proud to offer this literary commentary on “Girl Tripping” Covid edition.   So, here’s my background; I am a funny, witty very esoteric woman who loves to travel. I am a nice glass of wine and a good book type of chick, but I come with my quirks. Timeliness and lacking guest service drive me nuts yet, I have a heart for the tardy. I believe I do well alone, but I’ve come to accept that alone is best friends with lonely and if you don’t define the two carefully, dark places will become familiar. Its really easy to make one moment the standard for others, be watchful of that.  

Just a Shameless Leader ...

We've all been there before. Whether you were the new leader on the block feeling out of your depth with unfamiliar personalities, or you were the team member being led by someone who seemed equally lost, the struggle is real. At the end of the day, being in position is less about having the right qualifications and more about feeling qualified. In a workforce that values titles, appearances, and fitting in, it can be incredibly difficult to feel qualified within our complete identity. So what's the resolution? On one hand, there isn't one if we're unwilling to admit that our feelings don't always dictate how we should show up. But if you're here reading this newsletter titled "Just Another Shameless Leader," then you already know how those big, messy emotions can spill into our professional lens and completely shift how we see our day. Welcome to your new safe space. "Just a Shameless Leader" is the best kind of leader, in my opinion. This ...
