My word of the year is LEAP⁣ ⁣ Like leapfrogs?

My word of the year is LEAP⁣
⁣
Like leapfrogs?⁣
Like leaping (over something)?⁣
⁣
No, and no technically.⁣
⁣
Leap represents the journey that connects my present self to my future self. If I don’t take big LEAPS, how can I ever accomplish my dreams and goals?⁣
⁣
2020 taught me to purge old ideas of stability and happiness and 2021 encouraged me to embrace uncertainty and mental wholeness.⁣
⁣
This has been my biggest leap of them all and continues to drive me deep into my faith, humility, and life.⁣
⁣
What has been your word this year?⁣

This past year we've all been there...⁣ ⁣ Wher

This past year we've all been there...⁣
⁣
Where we were hanging on by a thread. Losing faith in humanity and therefore our lives. We've been isolated, frustrated, fed up, furious, sad, numb...the list could go on.⁣
⁣
But, Angela Davis says it best:⁣
⁣
"ANYONE WHO’S INTERESTED IN MAKING CHANGE IN THE WORLD, ⁣
ALSO HAS TO LEARN HOW TO TAKE CARE OF HERSELF, HIMSELF, THEIRSELVES." ⁣
⁣
Self–care isn’t selfish. Prioritizing your Mental Health isn't selfish either.⁣
⁣
There is no reason for you to feel guilty about setting boundaries and setting time aside for yourself. Taking care of your mind and body IS NOT selfish. ⁣
⁣
Why?⁣
⁣
By taking care of yourself, you find balance. Building a healthy lifestyle helps you reduce stress, increase confidence, and give you a more positive outlook on life. ⁣
⁣
Or rather, it allows you to fill up your tank so you can continue to fight against injustices. ⁣
⁣
So, please don't forget to fill your tank up this week, next week, and beyond. ⁣

The hardest thing I had to do...⁣ ⁣ ⁣say “

The hardest thing I had to do...⁣
⁣
⁣say “yes” to me and “no”...actually, a HELL naw to everyone else.⁣
⁣
And if you’re a non-confrontational, introvert who takes up as little space as possible, then you know what I mean.⁣
⁣
Early fall 2020, I decided that enough was enough. It was months after we’d been in quarantine, working from home, and the constant plight of anti-blackness displayed in the media overtook my mind, body, and soul...⁣
⁣
Y’all know what I mean. ⁣
⁣
And it hit me.⁣
⁣
“Why am I wallowing in pain, misery, and frustration at the expense of money or faux-stability?”⁣
⁣
“Why am I constantly encouraging my colleagues to think about diverse groups of people for them to dismiss or ignore what I have to say??!”⁣
⁣
Why lord? WHY???!⁣
⁣
Then I started to listen. Listen and watch for the signs that were out there. GOD had been displaying a path that I once ignored. No more, I said.⁣
⁣
The hardest decision turned into the easiest when I put myself first. Now as I sit here on my brother’s couch, I reflect upon the hard decisions that consist of prioritizing ourselves over the plight and needs of everyone around us.⁣
⁣
How have you put yourself first this year or month?⁣

3 truths + 2 lies. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
To my new and returning followers, hey!!! Thank you for following and joining the Travepreneur community!⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Let me reintroduce myself with a game of 3 truths and 2 lies. Why not change it up a bit, eh? ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Can you figure out which ones are the lies??⁣⁣
⁣⁣
1. After a night out with my girls, I peed on the bus because I couldn't hold it any longer.⁣⁣
2. I played a very small role in a sports movie. ⁣⁣
3. I played in a steel drum band for two years.⁣
4. My first word was "No."⁣⁣
5. I played two positions on a semi-pro football team. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Happy guessing!⁣⁣

Happy Arbor Day!⁣
⁣
Arbor is Latin for "Tree"⁣
⁣
What do you think of when you read or hear the word, "Tree"?⁣
⁣
I think of the greatest love and life given to us. ⁣
⁣
I'm reminded that "[t]hose who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts. There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature—the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after the winter." - Rachel Carson⁣
⁣
What would we do without trees?⁣
⁣
Nothing. Our lives would be drastically different.⁣
⁣
So, today and forever, let's PLANT, NURTURE AND CELEBRATE TREES.⁣

Do you want to volunteer?

Volunteering can be very impactful for our local and global communities.

And, no shame if you haven't had the time or capacity to dedicate time and energy to different causes. We've been wiped out from the past year.

It's understandable.

I just want to share with you two platforms that promote in-person and virtual volunteer opportunities in case you're seeking ways to get involved.

Check out:
1. @volunteermatch
2. @givingway

So, are you volunteering anywhere currently?

3 Things I learned about Taking Big Leaps in 2021⁣
⁣
1. Leaps can be as big or small as you want them to be. My stride may be small, but my leaps are BIGGG ⁣
2. Don’t compare your leaps to other people. If you only knew what others had to do to get to where they are today, we’d be happy to stay in our own lanes.⁣
3. They don’t follow a formula. There’s no curriculum to this thing called life and how we choose to take our leaps of faith. ⁣
⁣
What are some other things you’ve learned about taking big leaps this year?⁣
