A lot can change in 2 years.

Two years ago, I had lost my spark. After moving to NYC and in the midst of a horrible relationship, I felt disconnected from my work, unsure of my value, and unclear on where I was headed — personally and professionally.

What changed wasn’t one big moment. It was a series of quiet decisions: choosing myself, advocating for my needs, doing the uncomfortable work, and staying consistent even when no one was watching.

Over the past two years, that work looked like:
💼Earning a promotion and learning how to advocate for myself at work
🤗Building confidence after years of living alone and rebuilding from scratch
📱Creating content that reflects who I actually am
📈Founding and growing a community for marketers in NYC
🫶Strengthening my relationships and choosing ones that support my growth

I’m still figuring it out. But I finally have confidence in who I am, clarity on what I’m building, and a vision I believe in.

Whatever journey you’re on — career, confidence, healing, or building something of your own — I hope 2026 meets you with growth that feels earned. 🤍
