I took a few months off and didn’t post for a while.
I wanted to take some time to myself to figure out what I was doing with my life. As I get older, I find it more and more difficult to share what I was going through. Not because I hate feeling vulnerable, it’s more of respect for others that are in my life.
On top of that, I’m oddly scared of sharing too much because I’m afraid of saying the wrong thing. This started because of the cancel culture that was happening almost 2 years ago. People were getting canceled left and right – for things they said or things they didn’t say. It was so overwhelming, and I feel like I’ve pulled back quite a bit since then.
In the back of my mind, my blog has always been a special project to me.
It was something I wanted to do full-time after graduating college. I’ve gone back and forth on whether I should do my blog full-time. It was always an internal battle in the past few years.
Should I work in corporate? Should I work on my blog? I was nervous to share things like that because I didn’t want my current employer to think I was going to leave their company any time soon. It’s been hard trying to figure out what I can share and what I can’t share. This felt easier when I was in college, but certainly not now.
I love working in corporate, so don’t let this be a notice that I’m leaving corporate any time soon. Perhaps 5 years down the road, but as of right now, I’m happy with where my career is going, and I still have plenty to learn!
I am trying to get back into blogging and sharing more of my life on here and on social media.
