(LinkedIn) Welcome to The “I Have No Idea What I’m Doing” Club

Membership Cost: ✨FREE✨

Guess what? Most of the time I have no idea what I’m doing… and I’m learning to be okay with that. I do a pretty decent job of convincing you that I have it all together though, don’t I? 😏

What I DO know for certain is that there is an entire demographic of young professionals out there who also have no friggen clue what they’re doing either! 😂 Basically we’re all just wandering around aimlessly, trying everything in our power to “do the right thing” and “make the right decisions.” Sound familiar?

I discovered rather quickly over the course of my career that when people would come to me with their questions, doubts & insecurities, that I could thoughtfully/intuitively come up with suggestions and solutions to their struggles that were honest and realistic for them to wrap their mind around. I often observe a wave 🌊 of reassurance wash over them during the course of our conversation, and selfishly I leave the interaction feeling like I did something good for someone that day✨😌

Making difficult career decisions, establishing value-add personal/professional goals, struggling with interpersonal conflicts with supervisors, co-workers, and friend groups… these are all things I’ve been through before… both in my personal and professional life. Am I going to sit here and tell you that I have all of the answers to all of your problems? Absolutely not. BUT, can you download your thoughts, feelings and frustrations onto me? For sure. Can we try to come up with realistic solutions to your doubts and uncertainties together? You betcha! 🤗

I’m not going to pretend to know anything that’s outside of my “scope of practice” or lived-experience. You’ll probably teach me more than I can teach you!

My goal is to focus on the things I know most about… the power of the human experience and human connection, the value in deep, meaningful conversation, and the positive impact genuine compassion, empathy and vulnerability has on personal relationship building.

I don’t know what I’m doing otherwise… and I kinda hope I never do 😏
