Before I knew I could lead talent for Fortune 500 companies, I was working double shifts as a server. Before I became a Senior Manager the first time, I didn’t have a degree yet. Before I was trusted with seven-figure decisions, I was the youngest in the room. Before I had the job title, I didn’t know the job even existed. Before I had clarity, I was just doing my best and hoping it counted. What people don’t see is this: I wasn’t waiting to be chosen. I was learning how influence actually moves. I was studying what leaders respond to. I was refining how I showed up long before anyone labeled it “leadership.” Nothing about my capability changed overnight. My positioning did. And once that shifted, opportunity started meeting me where I already was. 💡And here’s what I know now about you: Most people aren’t stuck because they lack talent. They’re stuck because no one ever taught them the rules of growing in your career. You don’t wait until you feel “ready.” You move and readiness catches up. If you’ve been feeling that quiet pull lately… Careers don’t open up when you feel “ready.” They open up when you start moving differently. If you’re standing at the edge of something you can’t fully name yet…that doesn’t mean you’re behind. It means you’re early. And early is exactly where growth begins. #leadershipadvice #careeradvice
