I come from the world of academia, right? And if you've ever been a part of that world, you know how, and let's be real about it toxic, it can be sometimes, like, Where have you published? What's your next project, you know, all the things and the online business world can, in some ways be just as toxic. So for me, I was so used to hiding that when I moved into entrepreneurship, I kept hiding. I, you know, I hid from what I knew was my expertise. And because I felt like it wasn't good enough that, you know, I haven't written all the papers gotten the PhD, you know, two masters degrees don't count. It just didn't count for me at that time. So who am I to be like, talking about Di? I am, you know, I want to be really open with you, you all like my voice has been constantly silence over the years to the point where sometimes I didn't even realize how much I would be looking for answers elsewhere, looking for others to tell me what to do. And to do what they said, like, I would always second guess myself, like all the time, it didn't matter to me that, you know, I had 17 years. Well, when I first started, it was like 15 years of experience designing curriculum and educational programs through that di lens. Nope, I couldn't see it. I couldn't see it. I didn't trust myself. I didn't trust that I was good enough that I did have the expertise, that this was the right path for me. And when I met Brooke, back in 2020, she actually helped me with the first iteration of my business, and it was helping ESL teachers English as a second language. For those who don't know, teachers find their teaching style and create better lessons for their students. My whole it's so funny. My whole bio that we wrote together, Brooke and I was about belonging, about creating a classroom where every student felt like they belonged about my journey. Moving from country to country, and every new place that I've lived, looking for spaces where I belong, can you see where I'm going with this? It was there all along in everything I did this idea of creating inclusive spaces of creating spaces where when whoever comes in can feel that sense of belonging. But I didn't trust myself to go all in on it at that time, when I first started. And, you know, fast forward a year later, a couple of clients here and there few iterations, I finally started getting intentional about the spaces that I sought out to help me in these entrepreneurship streets. And, you know, I'm so fortunate and so grateful that Brooke, created the space in the Rule Breakers crew, as it is one of the spaces that has helped to ground me, guide and support me. And because of this, I'm learning to trust myself. More and more, and the growth, y'all when I tell you all the growth that I've seen in myself and my business, as I keep working on distressed has absolutely blown my frickin mind. Like, I was actually telling Brooke, on one of our calls the other day, that I was just having This feeling of disbelief sometimes cuz I couldn't believe that this is my business right now. Like, I'm like, when did this happen? What? Like all? It's like all those times when she asked me, What would you do if you trusted yourself, Abby, I finally actually started to ask myself that question. You know, before Brooke even has a chance, I've started to ask myself that question. But you know, here's the kicker with trust. When you think you have it all figured out, something pops up and you're like, wait, this shit is ongoing to like, I have to keep assessing and iterating iterating is my favorite word just by the way, and, like trusting myself in a whole different way.
