Hey #lovables !!! We had to postpone the a few weeks ago but it's finally going down tomorrow on Facebook. __________ I'm excited to announce that I'll be interviewed this Wednesday about a business coaching program I completed.... The focus was on making your side hustle your main squeeze. I didn't think I was close to that at all!! My private practice has been my side gig since I started it in 2017. I thought I needed to cross a lot more hurdles before I'd ever be fully on my own. I knew I needed support to get there. I found someone local who coaches women of color in all things business. I wanted to give myself a fair shot. I needed to give it a good try before I signed my life over to another full-time position. I took a big leap forward and enrolled. It was rough to say the least! The program started in February and so much happened throughout those 12 weeks....I nearly quit a couple of times, covid, Black Lives lost, social unrest. My work shifted online. However, nothing slowed down; even worse things intensified such that I was working more than ever. I don't know where I got the energy but in April I conducted 160 sessions (usually around 120-125). Not to mention the parenting, partnering, familying and friending (don't ask me why I insisted on adding -ing to each of these words ). And I had my own psychotherapy that I increased to weekly as well as both spiritual coaching and another business program that I also began at the same time in Feb 2020. I WAS DOING THE MOST...ON PURPOSE!!! My intentions were to get create a Support Network hitting several life domains. I truly wanted to level up my whole life not just my career. Hell, I am the original #lovable lol. I created Resilience Psychological Services PLLC and drew my #Adultingresiliently angle from my own journey and compassion for those with similar desires for growth and wellness. And while I knew the efforts would be worth it, I didn't imagine how intense it would be. Again it was not just because of what I intentionally put on plate but all the extra stuff too. Needless to say, growth is anything but pretty!!
