❓ "At what point in your academic or post-academic career did you figure out the specific field you wanted to pursue or the job you wanted to have?"

This June marks the one-year anniversary since my dear partner-in-crime at work, Zachary Adelmann, joined my team 🎉 Soo... I wanted to make him blush a little by shining a spotlight on this rare, wonderful young man 😎 From starting fresh in the media industry just a year ago to now sharing his insights and lessons learned with others, Zachary's sincerity and eagerness to grow make me feel lucky to be his manager. Instead of being a barrier, our differences are what make it work so well between us, and I truly can’t express enough how much I appreciate having Zachary on my team! Here’s a bit of candid sharing combined with some fun facts about us that I hope will help alleviate some of the stress if you’re trying to find the right job or career path for yourself. Have a watch, and good luck! 🍀 Special thanks to Zachary Adelmann for sharing your experience and Isabella Espinosa for asking your question. Thank you Professor Kate Kennon for hosting the session and all the students in Business Communication class at Fordham University for your engagement ❤️

Bloom in Crisis is the embodiment of hope — it is a belief, a practice, a state of being that empowers you to skillfully regulate emotions, build spiritual resilience, enhance self-awareness, unleash the potential of your mind, foster a grateful heart, cultivate joy, nurture positive energy, promote inner peace, grow self-compassion and compassion for others, embrace the present moment, derive wisdom from introspection, transform pain into grace, recognize positive possibilities even in adversity, and actively shape your narrative, ultimately leading to a happy and fulfilled life (with a touch of style!)

Welp... you're probably not going to remember all of these, and neither am I (!) which is why internalizing the concept of "bloom in crisis" instead of trying to memorize what it means is important. Luckily, we can all do it by practicing consistently. 

While I'm incredibly grateful for my journey, I know firsthand how painful and lonely it is to go through tough times alone — it urges me to give back and help others as much as I can in my lifetime. Bloom in Crisis has been transforming me and many others for the better, and I would love for you to give it a try!

Believing that everyone is a bloomer and we #bloomincrisis together, I founded Bloom in Crisis to share with you how I practice it and what I've learned throughout my journey, which, I hope, will be helpful for you in yours.
