Someone sent me a snap this week asking me what my claim to fame was? That's the thing about my industry there are so many unique people always challenging you. I thought am I old enough to even go there? So I sat with that question for a few days. I thought about a million and one things that could be my answer and then about an hour ago it dawned on me.
When my brothers started having kids I wanted to be the favorite Auntie when they were little. But when they became adults I wanted to be the person they could come to for anything, the person they could count on. Not really sure how that all has gone and hope I helped somehow but I wanted the same when I became a parent.
I wanted my kids to be able to tell me anything at all, ask me questions but more so I wanted their friends to feel the same way. So this pandemic quarantine crazy ass situation we all didn't know what to expect. I have had the most deepest of deep conversations with so many. I may not have all the answers but I am the person to be here and listen. I can give my perspective on all that life stuff as best as I can. I will tell you to make your choices very carefully, maybe give you a few scenarios to choose.
Clearly I don't have it all figured out but my claim to fame is being here. You want me to listen I will. Shit, maybe I can give some good advice on what not to do! But if you feel comfortable to talk to me about anything well that is amazing! I hope I can be that person for many...and I love that for us!
