I don’t know, but let’s find out

Keywords: leadership

  1. No one ever changed their perspective by spending time with only people who are exactly like them. If you are a leader, you may find that you’re coming out ahead in power imbalances, so do what you can to seek out others.
  2. Share the foundations first. When offering plans for next steps, always come prepared to share how you got there. Letting others know that you have done some thinking, gives them the courage to ask you to think about other things as well.
  3. Don’t rush the unknown. No one likes being unsure of what to do next, but when we rush through uncertainty it can lead us to solutions that are limited in their effect on the problem. Get comfortable with growth mindsets and fearless exploration.
  4. Listen twice as much as you speak. One of the characteristics that all my favorite leaders have in common is their thirst for information. They ask questions from everyone, they comment last, and they do their best to disagree constructively.

“I figured it’d be a fun way to share my thoughts and experiences with the world”

IMHO, blogging is also “a fun way for the world to share its thoughts and experiences with you”

Melissa wants to put her heart out there because when times are tough we have to try and connect

We have try and communicate even when our hearts are heavy and our minds are thick with bad weather. When the darkness clouds our minds we have to speak. Its important to say our truth. Its important to shout it regardless of who is listening and what judgment may follow. I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again our truth is our power.

“I’d like to connect” – follow this up WITH WHY you want to connect and MOST SPECIFICALLY WHY the person you are wanting to connect should want to connect with you

Keywords: sales, Networking, LinkedIn, connections, collaborating, cold call

Here’s an example of a note I may send when trying to reach someone I DO NOT ALREADY KNOW via LinkedIn:

Dear X,

SHARED CONTACT said you worked together at (former employer), I was curious to learn more about what you are working on (in your new role) as I am looking to BE VERY SPECIFIC ON YOUR GOAL/FOCUS and I’m thinking (we could help each other reach a common goal)? Might you be available for an intro phone call in the near future to discuss further?

You can reach me directly on my cell: 614-686-7220 or vial email (include address).

Kind regards, Melissa

Come as you are — as you are: yes, you are welcomed and accepted

Keywords: anorexia, bible, catholic, christianity, eating disorder, faith, family, god, jesus, lent, life, mental health, prayer, recovery

They’re stressing inclusion of all “genders, body types, sexual orientations, races, stages of recovery, etc.” at the recovery table. Which – is great. Period.
