I can’t stand a take take take a** friendship‼️As much as we know these are not #friendships we’d want, why does it seem like the internet is so obsessed with thinking that men are men worth having ONLY IF they are 💯 leaders in their groups?! Doesn’t that just mean he’s in the wrong friend group? 🤔

Hey ffriends! Is this a #safespace 🤔🧐 because I have to get something off my chest about failure and I’m tryna see if y’all can relate. It’s really hard to do in the moment, but reframing failures as learning opportunities can make all the difference✨

Reading is fundamental 🤓 and I love a good #selfhelp moment. Key takeaways im hoping to get from each book:
1. Making your next move your best move
2. Required reading at #londonbusinessschool …I remember opting for #oktoberfest , but I always thought this was a book I should get back to😬🍻
3.How you gon win if you ain’t right within?!
4. All the things! I may be a psychologist after all after getting through this one
5. I give all the f$cks. Let’s see what life is like when you don’t give as many
6. A fellow corporate baddie 🔁 on-air talent. Cheers to the mentors in our heads!
Have you read any of these?! 📚 let me know!

There are those that know what they want to do when they grow up from age 5 and stick to it for life, and then there’s the folks that I relate to 💯🤞🏾the ones that are intensely curious and focus on the problems they want to solve and impact they want to make- no matter how solving it may look like and how impact may change over time.
This was a fun one yall ‼️ thanks to @thepodcasttrapper for having me on to chat career transitions and the benefits of professional risk taking.

A note to all my #galentines in the midst of a reset. This seems to be the part of moving to a new city, starting a new job, meeting new friends etc etc that people don’t talk about. As if things fall into place immediately 🤦🏾♀️ How do you show up for yourself in the midst of starting over? How do you celebrate galentines day, without your gals?!
Everyone has a season(s) of solitude and this just so happens to be mine. I’m embracing this as a season to show up for myself slowly, steadily, and intently- no matter how long this season may be.
So this week, the fit is giving cozy and comfortable in my skin and in my pace. #happygalentinesday 💕
