Hello WACs community: Recently, I took a moment to reflect on my career journey and the incredible impact that WACS has had on my life. I am overflowing with gratitude for being a part of such a remarkable organization that has paved the way for ambitious and determined women seeking to advance their careers and education. After my experience with WACS, I felt an unstoppable drive to continue my education, especially knowing that my youngest boys were watching closely. Since then, my life has taken a remarkable shift—we relocated to my home state of Connecticut, welcomed a new addition to our family, became homeowners, and I am now embarking on a new career path. Today, I stand proud as a Neurosurgery Nurse Practitioner at Yale New Haven Hospital. I attribute my success to the unwavering support of God, the empowering community of WACS, and the incredible networks of people who have lifted me up along the way. My greatest challenge has been the recent loss of my Mother, who motivated me to move forward in my studies. Despite the pain and sorrow, I have found purpose in continuing to help others in honor of her. If there's one piece of advice I can share with other women looking to advance their education and become part of a vibrant community like WACS, it would be this: "It takes a village." Every connection you make, the mentorship, and most importantly, every ounce of belief and manifestation matters. Don't be afraid to push beyond your limits. Discover the strength within you, rise above any challenges, and unleash your full potential. Remember, you are capable of achieving greatness beyond your wildest dreams.
PS. (I attached my 2014 vision board I made during WACS Life Skills meeting)
