As I head into this next YLC Meeting in about a week---I am determined to see where things are in my life at that point and trying my hardest to make a good impression. It has been a difficult three weeks or more with not knowing if I am even the person for anything I set my heart on. Over time-- It has really given me reasons to believe no matter what happens throughout my life, all I can easily do is my best- regardless of others think about how I should do things. I know with all of the many leadership roles I have taken hold of into this new year... I need to make certain my priorities are straightened out and not being left in the dust. I have the agenda all taken care of with only the decision to pick what kind of new icebreaker question everyone wants to answer and it has been so wonderful getting acquainted with the remarkable people I work alongside.
Self Advocacy Closing Panel (May 2021)
This is an experience that I can only hope will turn out for the best. I am excited to share a little bit of my own insight on the topic of self advocacy and getting that message across of what it means to me. It's just simply one of the most rewarding parts about what I do, is informing people who either have disabilities or not about what skills we have applied in our lives to make a self advocate, among so many other good informed questions about this important topic. I have definitely continued to learn so much about trying my hardest to make sure my voice is heard in any situation and not making a complete fool of myself in front of people I genuinely look up to so much. More about this later on!!!
