Life is a mess right now. But even then, it does not stop until it does.

I hope everyone keeps that top of mind and goes into the New Year with a positive outlook and spirit on what’s to come.

Don’t even focus on our crazy government right now.

The next steps for me is simply getting back to myself and figuring out what this stage of momming looks like.

It was figuring out what those things were and doing them to get myself out of that discomfort. ACTIVELY.

Although when I lived up north, I had no problem doing anything by myself. I’ve grown away from that. Given, there are still a lot of things I don’t mind doing along that the average person would not go alone doing.

For me, it was getting back to the things I did with friends that I ACTUALLY like.

As the year comes to an end, here’s some things I’ve been up to:

- Went to a few games. It was nice to go alone and with my daughter. Since I ACTUALLY enjoy sports.

We get so accustomed to looking for friends and family to do things with us. It’s easy to not do them when no one goes.

I also have a running log of the majority of things I submit to. I’ve found a cool plug in and kickstarted running analysis on the data to reflect on this period in the near future.

As the year comes to an end, here’s some things I’ve been up to:

- Received an excessive amount of rejections on applications for all sort of employment.

This is remote, hybrid, in my local city. Didn’t matter if it was tech or in a local store. I find this very interesting.

As the year comes to an end, here’s some things I’ve been up to:

- Keeping busy to keep my mind off of personal things going on outside of my control at the moment.

- Redefined some services I’d like to offer to women exploring starting their entrepreneurial journey.

FYI it was NOT a bad failure either. Just 2 new territories or one exam. One I was prepared for and felt i wanted to attempt it to see where I was at. Not mad about that at all.

- Reconnected with old family and friends. Some unfortunate events.
- Passed 1 cloud cert and failed the AI cert. it definitely wasn’t AI it was opting to use C++ as my language of choice knowing damn well it’s only been a year 😂

As the year comes to an end, here’s some things I’ve been up to:

- Rebranded and kickstarting new STEM course using Roblox for girls.
- Stopped focusing on perfecting a language and started identifying and solving a problem as a learning opportunity.
- Used all my workshops on family and friends.

Learning, growth, and change are all continuous. Doesn’t matter how we feel about that. Stay prepared for each. And understand learning is at the root of success for the other two. 😉

There’s a fine line between sanity and delusion. Something I’ve learned over the last few years. Proceed with caution and tread lightly.

Something’s we can do to help others more:

- Marriage is NOT like a business. Stop saying that.
December 28, 2025 at 3:10 PM
Something’s we can do to help others more:

- Make time for folks. Meaning, stop squeezing people in. Actually set intentional things to connect appropriately with one another.

This is similar to how we schedule meeting a and only include relevant stakeholders, decision makers, and others involved

Something’s we can do to help others more:

- Educate ourselves so we are not giving out terrible advice. Also, understand that advice in comparison to what I would do in a similar situation is two different things.
December 28, 2025 at 3:07 PM
Something’s we can do to help others more:

- Love more! Love is NOT unconditional. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have boundaries lol it’s actually an abusive statement.

Love more with clear boundaries and meaning.
December 28, 2025 at 3:06 PM
Something’s we can do to help others more:

- Listen more than we speak. I’m terrible at this when I hear too much fluff and BS. But, it applies on those areas too. Otherwise we’ll end up stressing ourselves out.
December 28, 2025 at 3:05 PM
Something’s we can do to help others more:

- Not take offense because someone is reaching out for help and you haven’t heard from them in awhile. Unless the relationship was strained, I’m here for you.

Other reminders:

- Being smart is cool!
- They say it’s lonely at the top. I believe someone who wasn’t comfortable being alone said that.
- Being around a bunch of fools can leave you foolish. Don’t be foolish.
- It’s okay to say no.
- Love on who loves you.
- Don’t expect YOU from everyone.
December 28, 2025 at 3:02 PM
A few other reminders:

- Pay attention but know when to “tune out the noise”.
- Bad advice will often sound convenient, but good advice will have longevity in their benefits.
- Manipulation tactics do not help you find your RIGHT tribe!
- Assets and material things don’t make them better than you!

I also challenge you to:

- Find the positive even when you’re amidst chaos.
- Carve out time to reflect.
- Pick something you want to improve or change about yourself and do it. (A characteristic)
- Reconnect with loved ones you may have gotten disconnected from, in ways outside of electronics.
