Summary

A member of Tenacious Mamas (my business and leadership mastermind group) recently shared with us that she was feeling stuck - without a sense of direction or much clarity around her goals.  These feelings of stuckness and perhaps even confusion around stuckness are so common given what we have all been through this year. Things have been unpredictable for many months now and will continue to be so for many more months. This leads us to feel like we lack control and direction, which makes it hard to connect to a sense of purpose and specific goals.  So, how can we keep moving forward?  The answer lies in who you’re spending time with, how you’re spending time alone (yes, you need to be spending a little time alone - which may feel nearly impossible in COVID times), and what thought patterns you’re making space for.

girl was being really mean to me, but I told her that she had to stop because we have to

defund the police and support women. And Black Lives Matter. I was like, wow, didn't see that coming at 6.30 in the morning, but here we are.
