I'm A Juggler

Not in the literal sense of juggling physical objects (even though that is a really cool talent!).

Most people call it multi-tasking. The phrase multi-tasking never really resonated with me. I never felt like I was trying to do multiple things at once and get them all accomplished.

I felt more like I was just trying to not drop the balls! I learned my way of juggling at a young age. Growing up my parents were foster parents to 22 kids over a span of 10 years. One little guy stayed with us for 5 years. The one thing my mom insisted on was I stay the oldest child, so all of the children that came and went were younger than me.

Which translated to I got the most chores! My childhood home designated chores according to gender. I never was taught how to change oil in the car or change a tire. My brothers were never taught how to cook or do laundry.

But I had a yearning for learning! I was taught how to be a wife and mother and how to run a household but was never taught how to be an independent woman. Those were lessons I would teach myself later in life.

So meanwhile as I am doing chores my mind was constantly going elsewhere. Thinking, creating, dreaming. I mentally made up poetry and stories and wrote them down in my spare time. I had quite the imagination at times!

I still practice my style of juggling today! I am constantly thinking about how I want to build my business, how I can add value to someone else's life, and what topics to share with others.

I have found my home here at WA! This is the best place for my creative mind to develop the skills and knowledge I need to become successful. I still yearn to learn and find the community and training here the best I have ever had the pleasure of belonging to.

Thank you my WA family!
