I’m leaving my position as a DEI Coordinator at the end of May. May also happens to be Mental Health Awareness Month. In this episode, I share how therapy is helping me make the transition from a 9-5 employee to a Full-Time entrepreneur.
I love a good ICYMI and so I thought it only fitting that this week’s Stack The Deck be dedicated to my favorite moments from the last weeks that you may have missed if you aren’t connected to me personally on LinkedIn. (Let’s connect now!)
- Amberly’s First Thoughts on the Death of Carolyn Bryant, Her Cousin Emmett Till’s Accuser
- Mamie Till Mobley Memorial Foundation Fundraiser
- Mamie Till Mobley Monument Unveiling at Argo Community High School
- Platform to Justice Training: Systems and Ops Training for Memorial Foundations | May 18th at 7pm (Register here)
I mentioned two resources that have been game-changers for me during this period of transition but I left one out that I’m adding here below (see this is why you gotta read the show notes!) Don’t Stay In Your Lane was a huge help with keeping things in perspective and direction on leaving my “good” job for a career on my own terms.
