HR Sucks is gone. Dunzo. Finito.

I talk about the pressure of content creation, why I took a step back from social media, and how I rediscovered my voice through a voice memo and a walk. I also dive into the Thought Leader Archetype quiz that helped me make sense of why nothing I was trying before felt quite right. If you're a business owner, a people manager, a mom—or all three—I think you’ll feel seen in this story.
