Dear Wonderful Woman & Allies,

Happy Tuesday! 🙌🏾🎉

Happy New Year! 🎊🎊

How are you doing? I'm feeling good.

2025 is a Year!

However, you get to decide what you do with this year.

Stepping forward for the Bigger opportunities is scary, but has so many benefits.

You know this!

What are 3 Big Scary Goals you have?

Is stepping forward for an Award scary?

Is applying to speak at an event scary?

Is applying for a promotion scary?

And so the saying goes:

Choose your Hard! Which means it's hard to get the thing. It's also hard not to have what you want.

It's NOT about:

The absence of FEAR

Or Feeling 100% Ready

Or letting Someone else decide when you're ready

Nope!

It's about:

Taking bold and audacious action!

So if going for an Award scares you.

Here's one you can apply for or get your friend or colleague to nominate you for: Rising Stars with WeAreTheCity is an amazing opportunity.

Here's where you can find more info: HERE

So if you're seeking opportunities, look for them and ask for help!
