👉 This week, the focus is on heart-centered energy, nurturing yourself and others, and the power of sharing, connecting, and kindness.
It's a time to:
Practice kindness: Extend compassion and support to those around you.
Honor your values: Align your actions with what truly matters to you.
Prioritize self-care: Nourish your well-being to sustain your energy and effectiveness.
Empower others: Believe in their potential and support their growth.
Share your "why": Communicate your values and purpose with authenticity.
If you’re part of the Career Clarity Community, I’ll see you on Friday for our live community call (deets are always in our chat👇)!

One Small Step👣✨
The ‘One Small Step👣✨’ segment is all about taking one small, achievable action this week to move you closer to your next career goal.
This week, it's about a small act of self-care AND a small act of kindness.
What's one small act of self-care you can commit to this week? This could be anything that nourishes you, from taking a break to exercising to spending time in nature.
What's one small act of kindness you can offer to someone this week? This could be a word of encouragement, a helping hand, or simply being present and listening.
How can you integrate these acts into your daily routine beyond this week?

Career Action✨
In the ‘Career Action💪✨’ segment, we invite you to explore and plot out the next step in your career journey. We'll present ideas – some you may have considered, others that might be new – all designed to inspire you to take bold action and move your career forward!
This week, let's focus on leading with heart and values:
Identify your top 3-5 core values. What principles guide your decisions and actions?
👉 Reflect on how well your current career aligns with these values. Are there any areas where you feel misaligned?
👉 Brainstorm ways to bring more of your values into your work. This could involve seeking out new opportunities, advocating for change, or simply shifting your mindset.
👉 Consider how you can empower others in your workplace. How can you support their growth, recognize their contributions, and foster a positive environment?
Remember, by being clear and identifying your core values, it’s seamless to see if they align with another manager, team, or organization. This can be the ‘truest’ of indicators, for if we’ve selected an “aligned” career pathway, too!
Community Celebration✨
The ‘Community Celebration🥳✨’ segment is dedicated to our gorgeous Career Clarity Community! Here's where we highlight your wins, share valuable learnings from our chat conversations and weekly live calls, and celebrate the best of our #AskLavender submissions. I'm so honored to celebrate with you!
I'm incredibly proud of a 🙋Community Member who recently demonstrated immense courage and self-care during a challenging situation.
They had been experiencing some resistance and challenges with their current manager. This included some doubt and micromanagement. Instead of pushing through, they prioritized themselves and took a long weekend to reflect and take a few steps back.
⭐️ When we prioritize ourselves, our path forward becomes clearer…
They used this time to rest, recharge, and reconnect with themselves. They also communicated openly with their manager about their needs and set clearer boundaries moving forward (these kinds of conversations are some of my most treasured to walk through when navigating with the same challenges).
This act of self-care not only helped them realign but also empowered them to create more sustainable work-life harmony. It’s an ever-flowing practice, not something that one event can “fix”.
But this one event can absolutely give us the clarity and direction we need.
This is a beautiful reminder that prioritizing your well-being is essential for long-term success.
Let's celebrate their courage and commitment to self-care! 🎈 CONGRATS on prioritizing your well-being and inspiring us all to do the same!
