A few weeks ago, I had the privilege of speaking at the FUEL Women's Conference.  This day was all about Firing Up Everyone's Light and leaning into the amazing community of women present. 

While I was honored to have the opportunity to allow my words to influence those present, I myself needed to hear the messages shared as we've all faced unexpected challenges over the last 18 months and still face today.  Learning how to navigate has been an uphill battle so it was fueling to allow the day to pour into me.       

In a Women At Work survey, conducted by CNBC - 65% of working women say the pandemic has made things worse for them in general and they feel more stress and anxiety than ever before.  More than half of the 3,600 female participants surveyed said they feel burnt out, and more than a 1/3 said they've thought about quitting their job in the last year. 

Women today are at their breaking point.  We are stressed.  We are tired.  And we are burnt out.  But we don't have to stay here.  We can choose to look for opportunities to bloom in any circumstance - the good ones and the bad ones. 

I hope this episode redirects your focus and reminds you that while you may not be able to control what is happening around you, you are in the driver's seat and YOU get to decide how you will react.  I hope you use this season that you're in and look for an opportunity to bloom.
