The Highlight Real

In this episode, I talk with SheTerria Sparks as we discuss her online blog Perihelion, her interests in fashion, writing, music, and more. Perihelion is the point in the orbit of a planet, asteroid, or comet at which it is closest to the sun. SheTerria uses her blog as a way to spread positivity and bring attention to other creatives while also using her platform to help others whether that be with thrifting advice or relationship advice. Her interests in fashion and writing lead to the creation of Perihelion as she uses her love for both for the blog. SheTerria is also a very busy and dedicated creative! She helps her friends bring their creative ideas to life. While she is normally the interviewer, I use this conversation as an opportunity to learn more about her as a creative and to also ask her some of the questions that she typically asks her guests! Tune in to this episode to hear our conversation and learn more about SheTerria!!

In this episode, I discuss the newness and feelings that can be associated with graduation season. This is a season that captivates many with the feelings of freshness and renewal - and rightfully so. As I reflect on these feelings a year removed from my own college graduation, I have learned and experienced a great deal of hardship. While these hardships have provided reasons to give up, they conversely provided reasons to push forward. I use this episode as an opportunity to alert students that obstacles may wait ahead, but encourage them to persevere through because as some things may fall apart, other parts will begin to fall together.

Shoutout to the high school and college graduates!

There are few things in this world that are more challenging than chasing goals in an uncertain environment. It requires sacrifice, perseverance, and embracing being out of your comfort zone. That’s been my journey since I graduated in May last year.

I’m at a stage in my life where I know exactly what I want but I also know I have a lot of growing to do before I get it. The important thing is that I’ve taken the leap. Even though I can’t tell how close or far I am, I know that am on the way. I want to encourage more people to take that leap and embrace the journey that follows it.

In this episode, I’ll share a bit about where I’m at, how I got here, and the challenges I faced along the way. More importantly, I’ll share some things that I’ve learned from my experience and pieces of advice that I’ve received from people I look up to.

Tune in to this first episode of The Highlight Real and get ready to make the leap and chase your goals.

In This Episode, You Will Learn:

• My journey after graduating (01:19)
• Life and friends dynamics change after graduation (06:48)
• Why you shouldn’t be scared to take the leap and chase your goals (10:00)
