There have been some changes since this time last year. Overall, life with my hubby is pretty much the same. No new siblings appeared, which is great because I was developing survivor guilt – the sister I grew up and I were the children my mom did not put up for adoption.
I lost a dear friend to ovarian cancer after her fight over many years, far more than most women with Stage 4 ovarian cancer typically get. I’ll miss her so much. She was a truly good human.
After a decade of planning, writing, learning, and taking over 1,000 photographs edited in Photoshop, I self-published my first graphic novel, The Takashima Extraction. It’s a futuristic crime drama set in Seattle in 2123. You can read more about this project and purchase a copy here.
In February 2023, I launched this site and my coaching business, EA Mentor for executive assistants.
This time last year, I was fully virtual at my full-time job. Now I’m back to the office three days a week, even though none of the people I work with is based in my city. I go to work as required and spend my days on calls with my team. The floor I’m on has a low attendance so there are days when I’m sitting by myself.
I stepped out of my comfort zone at work and applied for an internal job supporting a VP. It was out of my league and I didn’t really expect to get the job but I prepared for it and did my best. I was seriously considered but not chosen. I received feedback on skills I’m missing and I’ll work on those in 2024.
