I didn't grow up around people who looked like they belonged in the rooms I eventually ended up in.
I learned early that if I waited for permission, or waited until I felt ready, or waited until every piece lined up neatly—I'd wait forever. So I stopped waiting. I moved cities. I moved industries. I said yes to rooms I hadn't been fully trained for, and figured the rest out on the way there.
Eighteen-plus years later, that's still the throughline: interviews, coaching, enterprise transformation, leadership development, workforce experiences—different rooms, same conviction. What God placed inside you is meant to be released into the world, not managed down to fit someone else's comfort.
