This line from T.S. Eliot’s Four Quartets has long been a favorite.
It sums up well the lessons of this time.
This concept of renewal is symbolized by the Enso circle, which is also a symbol of the Universe.
I’ve got this circle tattooed on my arm, but it turns out I don’t need the reminder.
We all struggle with loss every day.
The photo below was taken in February of this year, when I was leading a training on dining and professional etiquette at UNC-Chapel Hill.
Between that time and now, all of the rules have changed. There are no more in-person workshops, and if there were, the content’s different: No more handshakes. Wear a mask. Stay far away from each other.
Everything has shifted.
I lost spring workshops, and many others lost jobs.
The need for career coaching and for guidance through career transition has grown, yet this is a time when paying for career coaching is difficult for many.
I have long been a student of donation-based yoga studios, so when this pandemic hit, I wondered: what would happen if I offered donation-based career coaching?
I took on my first donation-based client last week, and it’s going well.
Nature abhors a void.
When something falls away, something else will take its place.
In the end is the beginning.
