Courage

Making a big career or life change can feel a lot like playing Scrabble. Youโ€™re staring at a set of tiles, unsure of your next move, overthinking every possibility. You might feel stuck, questioning if the move you choose will pay off, or worse, if it will backfire. But hereโ€™s the thing: nothing happens until you place that first tile.


Sometimes in Scrabble, you start small, building a short word that doesnโ€™t seem impressive. But as the game progresses, that small word becomes the foundation for bigger, higher-scoring plays. The same goes for life and career transitions. Whether youโ€™re considering leaving a job youโ€™ve had for years, venturing into a new industry, or reimagining whatโ€™s possible, that first step is the hardestโ€”but itโ€™s also the most important.

Every move you make creates new opportunities, just like in Scrabble. One actionโ€”sending an email, updating your resume, or attending a networking eventโ€”can open doors you didnโ€™t even see before. The key is to start, even if youโ€™re unsure of the outcome.


So, if youโ€™re feeling stuck, think of your life as a Scrabble board. Whatโ€™s your first move? Even a small word can lead to a big win. Trust yourself, take the leap, and let momentum guide you to something amazing.


Letโ€™s support each other in these bold moves. And as always, letโ€™s be kind out there-it starts with you and I.
