I feel extremely uncomfortable in social or work related gatherings where I don't know many people. Ask me to go somewhere I have never been to speak to thousands of people I have never met about Transformation Kitchen™️ and I could talk all day. Ask me to go down the street to meet five random folks with the sole purpose of introductions and I'm looking for the door. When I tell most people I have social anxiety I literally get an array of responses. Some people find it necessary to: laugh ask me snarky questions make a joke disregard me altogether I've been working on stretching myself this year by going to more in person events and meeting at least 5 new people each time. I try to have at least one wing person that knows and accepts me be present. One of my newest friends, Marisa Gee, and my buddy Kathy Love, both incredible #Outliers have been these special people for me recently. Someone that I have great respect for, and another amazing #Outlier, Doug Skoke, wrote a brilliant post a week ago that I just read. https://lnkd.in/eQHCnCxG He says eloquently what I'm struggling to convey. He has a boatload of emotional intelligence. Because the best leaders aren't the loudest in the room.... they're the ones with the most empathy. They are those that build trust and develop diverse teams by creating space for everyone. Do Good. Be Kind. Spread Joy. #DifferentNOTless #DiversityEquityInclusion #DoTheWork #PsychologicalSafety

Someone asked me, 'What are you taking with you?' My response? 'The memories I've created with friends!' Nothing beats the joy of cherishing moments with loved ones.

If you know...you know! Hat tip to all of my fellow introvert / ambivert sisters and brothers. We find this time of the year to be particularly energy depleting. Don't misunderstand, we care deep, we love deep, we feel deep, we think deep. Which is why large social gatherings, "forced fun" environments, loud venues where we can't even hear, much less engage with anyone in a meaningful way, deplete us of energy. So please give us some grace and space when we depart without making the rounds. We do this because we are tired of having to answer the questions that mostly come from a well intentioned place and sound like: ❓Why are you leaving so early? ❓Are you not having fun? ❓Really? The night is just getting started? What we'd love to hear from you is: Thanks for showing up and being you. Hope you enjoyed yourself, get home safe. Period. Hard stop. 🛑 This is my PSA 📣 for anyone who will be part of the holiday party circuit starting...NOW! With deep #love and #gratitude, #bluecollarbuddha LFG 🚀 #youbeyou #selflove #ambivert #introvert #mindfulness #emotionalintelligence #sales #staffing

In the hustle of everyday life, it’s easy to forget the small but meaningful gestures that keep us connected and grounded. Taking time to call your family, smile at a stranger, or write to a friend can have a profound impact on both your well-being and those around you. Reflecting on moments like these, I’ve come to realize how these little actions are often the ones that bring the most joy and fulfillment. Appreciating the simple things—like good food, shared laughter, and heartfelt connections—reminds us to slow down and prioritize what truly matters. So today, let’s focus on spreading positivity and taking care of ourselves and others. What’s one small thing you’ll do to brighten someone’s day? #SelfCare #Connection #SpreadPositivity #StaySafe #MentalWellbeing Forever grateful for the moments that remind us of life’s simple joys.

😊 A Smile: The Simplest Gift You Can Share 😊 In the hustle and bustle of life, it’s easy to forget the power of a simple smile.

Whether it’s a colleague, a friend, or a stranger—your smile might be the spark they need to keep going. Let’s take a moment today to wear our best smiles and share them with the world. Because sometimes, the smallest gestures have the biggest impact. 💛 #SmileMore #PositiveEnergy #KindnessMatters #InspireJoy #SpreadHappiness

Smile more! Everyday give us many opportunities to smile and be grateful. Feeling low ? Going through rough time? Experiencing a burn out ? I have had days when nothing works, nothing seems right, nothing goes well. Here’s what has helped me: 1. Spend time with children. 2. Take a walk all by yourself. 3. Surround yourself with Nature-trees, plants, lakes, rivers, beaches, parks, mountains, hills, flowers…just Nature! 4. Spend time around cows. 5. Meditate. Observe. Relax. 6. Listen to soothing music. 7. Read a book. 8. Stay away from toxic company. 9. Go on a fruit diet for 1-2days. 10. Learn something new. And most importantly … 11. Remind yourself ➡️ there are ups and downs in everyone’s life. It’s by design 🙂 #life #lessons nothing is worth loosing that #smile !!

After a hectic week full of deadlines, chaos, and to-do lists, I finally got a peaceful moment for a cozy date night with my husband by the fireplace. 🥂 It felt like a much-needed escape from the busy everyday grind. And honestly, it made me realize how important it is to take a break and reconnect with loved ones, even when life feels like it’s pulling you in every direction. What I love most is that it wasn’t anything fancy—just the two of us, a quiet atmosphere, and some good conversation. 😍 We don’t always need big plans or fancy dinners to feel connected. Sometimes, the simplest moments really mean the most. Whether it’s sharing a cup of coffee, cooking dinner together, or just relaxing with no distractions—those small, quiet moments bring so much peace and a sense of grounding in a busy world. ❤️ So, I’m curious: What’s your go-to for a 'non-fancy' date night? Share your ideas in the comments below, someone might just find inspiration for their next cozy night in! #DateNight  #SimplePleasures  #QualityTimeMatters  #CozyVibes  #JoyOfLittleThings #RelationshipGoals  #MindfulLiving #MindsetCoach #BusyProfessionals
