Career Advice:

1. Find the positives in adversity. There’s always a silver lining if you look for it.
2. Embrace vulnerability. Be authentic and ditch your ego. We all have gaps. 
3. There's value in patience. We are what we allow. 
4. Show up prepared. Document the little things and don’t wing it. Be the person who makes things happen.
5. Set expectations. Internally and externally. If expectations are not set properly, trust will be lost and relationships will be harmed. 
6. Success is a balance. It requires sacrifice. Be a good listener, be a good teammate, and be curious about how you can serve others.
