The outpouring of love, appreciation, and admiration from my coworkers for all the dedication and hard work I have put in over the last four years, mixed with countless expressions of anger and sadness about my departure has been beyond humbling and moving and left me without words at times.
As an aging woman and a mother, I’ve learned first hand that it is natural to develop insecurities, identity crises, feelings of being lost, and inadequate. Feeling like you’re not doing enough or you’re doing it wrong.
As independent and confident as I am at times, it really does make a world of a difference to hear from someone else that you are worthy. You are doing enough. You are doing a good job.
To all the coworkers, that quickly became friends and family, thank you! For being such a great team, making my job and life easier, but most importantly, loving, embracing, and celebrating me for who I am and constantly reminding me that I am enough! 💜
