Why, Yes, That LEAP Was In Costume!

Happy Birthday To PAVE!

Recently, it dawned on me how funny (and symbolic) it is that my last day on the job before jumping into the deep-end of starting my own business was HALLOWEEN! And, yes, I dressed-up... as a "Spice Girl" in fact, which meant I was the "Paprika" of our marketing team's McCormick spice rack ; ). Spiiiicy, I know!

Looking back on that day in 2014, I remember feeling like I was about to put on a new costume. Here I was, a 17-year veteran to the world of advertising and marketing, about to embark on the road of personal and professional development, AND entrepreneurship. I was about to start my own practice as an Executive Coach, and put on what felt like at first, a new costume.

At the time, I felt almost as foolish inside as I looked in my Paprika costume on the outside. I'd catch myself questioning, "who will believe that I can do this?" And even, "can I really do this?" Despite all these questions, I marched out of the office that day in my ridiculous costume. Meanwhile, I somehow knew, without any concrete evidence (yet ; )), that I was also walking into a RAINBOW of possibilities.

Fast-forward eight years to this week of November of 2022. What a ride it's been! I'd like to take this moment to THANK ALL OF OUR AMAZING CLIENTS, FRIENDS and BELIEVERS for your support, encouragement and optimism. It's truly amazing how much of a role the uplifters of this world play within our individual and collective successes. 

Along the way, I've learned to embrace the feeling of ridiculousness from time-to-time -- it's actually how I know I'm learning, growing and taking healthy risks. I've also connected with incredible partners-in-crime -- like Bobby Sparks and Carol Fabrizio, as well as a recent alignment with Tracy Graf and FUSE Igniting Communication. Together, we are your go-to crew for:
