Not every year comes with trophies, promotions, or a neat list of accomplishments. Some years are quieter. Harder to explain. Still deeply formative.

In this episode of Coffey Talk, Kate Coffey-Bacon sits down with Shannon Mullins, Microsoft MVP, founder, community leader, and longtime friend, to talk honestly about seasons of change. The years where you show up, keep going, and stay grounded even when there’s no highlight reel to share.

This is a conversation about trusting the process, finding steadiness in uncertainty, and recognizing growth that doesn’t announce itself right away.

Key Takeaways 

• Not all growth is visible in real time
  Quiet years often prepare you for what’s next
• Staying grounded matters more than staying busy
• You’re not behind just because your year wasn’t loud
