FINDING THE RIGHT MENTOR IS VITAL
I cannot stress this enough. Last year, after everything was said & done, there was nothing I could do but prepare myself for the next season. I asked my mentor at that time for advice & I was deadly surprised when she advised me to quit. Heartbroken, Disappointed, and Hopeless I could not stop myself from feeling.
But, you know me. I refused to accept it. I found another mentor & was lucky to meet my current mentor, who believes in me, see through my strengths & weaknesses, & help me to achieve my goal. His endless support & timely advice were the keys to my success.

If you or someone you know is in this situation, think about what would YOU say or DO in an equivalent setting to your:
best friend?
most inspiring mentor?
puppy, even, for rolling down some stairs?
➡️ take a deep breath + kindly …
say/do it like you MEAN IT!

@GRecondoMD You are that voice that I hear when disappointment sets in, and also that letter inspiring me to keep going! Forever grateful for your ongoing influence in my life, @GRecondoMD 🙏🏾💪
@saraieo Exactly so! She should be so beyond proud bc it was easier to give up and she didn’t give in!Congratulations to you both!
We are often conditioned to think the highway is the only way, forgetting that the little roads and the scenic route will also get you to point B! @saraieo
