In recent years, (let's just say...after a special birthday) I had been working on self-improvement, working out, eating better, self-help books, applying for new jobs and taking on new responsibilities in my community.  Every item I checked off my to-do list was replaced with 10 more, but I was still lacking a sense of fulfillment.

​

On January 10, 2020, I had a vision. Much more vivid than a mere dream, and with a clear message, I knew it was different the moment I woke up.  The self-help books I was reading were not the answer, something else was.  I began to incorporate faith in leadership.  My purpose is to be a source of positive, yet practical, inspiration for leaders of families, communities, workplaces.  I began to put my faith and my purpose at the forefront of everything I did.  

 

  In 2022, after twenty-two years in the legal services industry, I left my career in pursuit of more creative endeavors

  and started Weather the Storms LLC.  Weather the Storms LLC began as a professional services company that

  sought to take business workflow analysis to the next level by not only developing action plans in collaboration

  with clients, but by completing them.  It is helpful, but not sufficient, to merely analyze the current state of

  business operations.  I wanted to be the consultant who would take the steps needed to move projects from

  the "back-burner" to the "cooling rack", by bringing plans to fruition.

​

In addition to creating and marketing my new business, I found that I had time to tend to family and friend relationships that had taken a back seat to my career.  The more I poured into these relationships, the more I received in return.  As I move forward into new work roles and responsibilities, I plan to be intentional about giving my time and attention to those I love and to those, still unknown, whose paths will cross mine in the future.
