Whoops.. I just realized that I keep referring to this new season as season 5 yet we haven't even started season 4. As we kick off season 4 I just wanted to share a thought about goals and distractions that accompany them. Don't allow burnout to keep you from investing time into your passions. Be consistent and confident through the process. You'll get to what you're working on in due time.

I can't believe it, just like that we are closing out Season 4. Crazy that we finally made it here because it has been an interesting season from going back to school to stepping into motherhood. Thank you for joining me this season and showing up each week to listen to what I share. I'm excited to get Season 5 started for you. Let’s do this!

The President of Broken English Productions, Jolene Rodriguez, shares about the start of her career and her journey as she chased her dream to work in the entertainment industry. In this episode, she shares about a few experiences that brought her to where she is today in life and as a producer. I hope this episode reminds you that your dreams are not to far out reach.

This week I just want to remind you to not allow doubt to keep you from pursing your vision. The road map may be long and full of turns but all those baby steps will amount to something.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who has heard the term 'passion project'. Making a little bit of time to do what you love after taking care of your obligations. In this weeks episode, Seena shares about how she started a business by pursuing something she felt so passionate about. Instead of putting it on hold until she had her career figured out, she made a career out of her passion.

This week I was reminded of a time when I absolutely hated my job but I was to afraid to quit. Not quitting my job led me to getting fired within 3 months. Forcing me to make a career change.

Recently I caught myself being so ungrateful because I felt inconvenienced. In the midst of my negative feelings I had to put myself in check and remember that I should not overlook the opportunity I was given. Ingratiate in anyway is a very hindering behavior.

When I pressed record for this episode I had no outline about what this episode was going to be about. We just went with the flow an things immediately got real. In this episode, Julie share about her experience being abused as a child and blocking it out for about 20 years. Leaving her to process the trauma as she stepped into motherhood. She also touches on navigating through grief during the pandemic as she is now a widow. Please be aware that’s she talks about sensitive things that can be triggering for those who have been sexually abused.
