I’m a facilitator of Google’s IAmRemarkable workshops (it should have a hashtag in front but I’m on an unfamiliar keyboard and unsure how to generate one!) all about self promotion. They have two slogans: it’s not bragging if it’s true, and achievements don’t speak for themselves. That second one made my head explode (in a good way) when I first heard it, and I’ve spent the years since unlearning the expectations of modesty I was brought up with. ‘Don’t keep yourself a secret’ is a fantastic addition to that!!

Lily, this just blew my mind.

— It's not bragging if it's true.

— Achievements don't speak for themselves.

(Had to type 'em out to lock 'em in.) Here's to giving our own achievements a voice -- they deserve it.

Happy to jump on a Zoom and talk more about the #IAmRemarkable programme - it’s a real privilege to facilitate the sessions and see people visibly increase in confidence to talk about their achievements (I’ve trained over 300 people now)

i gave your second journal to my not-exactly-step-daughter/step daughter, but perhaps your third should be a gift to myself 🤔😊

I hope you might find some value inside! There are lots of prompts about creating and protecting space in order to do our meaningful work!
