Sometimes I forget how far I have come. A decade ago I was living back at home, going back to school with little hope. My mother-in-law loves to say how much I've blossomed. Growth can be slow but steady.

When was the last time you stopped to smell the roses? My front yard was full of roses this June but it took me a while to really, fully appreciate it. I'd be about to open the front door after walking the dog, worried about my keys. But if I stopped, to really breathe in, I'd smell the roses.

Grateful for @seattlevoicelab.com for giving me work-life balance. Here's a headpiece I was able to make in my spare time. I love working with so many creatives that understand time to create is important.

Finding your voice as a trans person is more important now than ever. We need your stories.Seattle Voice Lab is proud to host“Embodying Resilience,” a transformative workshop led by Lex Horwitz, designed for the Trans and gender-diverse community as professionals,and other allies who support them.

I'm always trying to improve my skills as a leader. Here are 2 books to that helped me with my journey :
Daring Greatly by Brené Brown taught about the power of vulnerability
and
Presence: Bringing Your Boldest Self to Your Biggest Challenges by Amy Cuddy
