Quarter Story🌬
Whoa, it's been August, and we have passed quarter of 2021!
If I recap a bit my life in this quarter, well this pic tells a lot:
Yeah, I feel so blessed. I have an abundance of energy now, better than a few months ago. July is my fav month of 2021 so far! Many things happened in July, and I didn't know that life brings me into that path.
You know what, I got my first client in July! Whooo!
I feel soo happy. It started when my overthinking & anxiety were biting me, and I intentionally share my thought in the FB group. I don't hope anything. I just want to share & discuss with people who also come from Asia. Turn out, there's a fellow Indonesian (but she's in Cape Town) who was seeking a VA, and asked me to send my kit. At first, I thought she only wants to share with me since we're Indonesian. But she directly offers me a position! It was soo delightful at that time 🥳
I love working with her. I mean, she's so inspiring, who's not? I even stalk her blog to find out about her life journey lol. Unfortunately, I got some symptoms that day that made me wonder if I get infected. I was soo dizzy at that time. So, in the end, I was positive and still done the works, since it's made me so excited!
Not nearly a month, she asked me to be an interviewee at her first webinar. Btw, she has an online group that focuses on women empowerment. Look at that, isn't she so enchanting? haha. Well, it was my first time, so I got nervous indeed. Also, being an interviewee means that I need to open up a bit about my story. That's why I was so afraid. Yes, I am still afraid to be judged by people, afraid that I can control my emotion properly 😔. But well, although I was so doubtful at first, I ended to do it anyway! haha. What's an achievement!🥂During my time in quarantine, I also learn new skills and keep become productive. It surprised me that I can do more & everything. That's a small thing that I have to be celebrated about. I am so proud of myself.
My client also offered me to work with her acquaintance from Venice. I have prepared my presentation and waiting for her feedback. Hopefully, I can make this one!
I know, my journey is still long. I have to work on healing & upgrading myself. Sometimes, there's a time where my anxiety and the memory of that trauma are showering myself, especially on the weekend. I just know that I am not fully recovered yet, but I need to keep making progress.
