Am I lucky?

If I answer that quickly, in my current season of life...I feel unlucky but

in the grand scheme of life, I'm not. I'm blessed - happy, healthy, loved and fulfilled in many ways.

When I'm stressed, you might notice me…

be short & blunt in emails. it's not you, it's me..but wait, what did u do?

When I'm stressed, I'm moving quicky and when I'm moving quickly, I'm in the zone and when I'm in the zone, I may be more straightforward/to the point Offer to help, check-in, give me space to get shit done (but know I'm always here if you need me :))

Teammates might misunderstand me as...

1.) Intense, temperamental, overly assertive & 2.) a micromanager

I don't fear that I am - I know I am these things at times. I've received the feedback before and continue to work on it but I'm never satisfied and extremely hard on myself. 2.) I have high expectations for myself, self-proclaimed perfectionist so sometimes I worry that unintentionally extends to how I lead the work, depending on the project

My biggest fear

Being unlovable, rejected, or unwantedBeing worthless or not valuedHaving no meaning or being insignificant and mundane

Additional one - Being misunderstood I want to 1.) be understood (I have good intentions but sometimes poor verbal execution) 2.) provide value 3. be successful (I put lots of pressure on myself!)

My favorite movie

Almost FamousLove and Basketball

“I always tell the girls, ‘Never take it seriously.’ If you never take it seriously, you never get hurt. If you never get hurt, you always have fun. And if you ever get lonely, just go to the record store and visit your friends.”
