And I was trying to be like, no, no, they're not so bad, blah, blah, blah.
And people were just like, who are you?
And what are you doing here in this club?
So I was proud that I was able to start to learn some of those skills and get the grounding and start to
pushed myself in showing designs and getting critique and all of that.
So actually even critique in of itself as a design practice, it is essentially where you, you know, come up with something and then you show it to a room of designers.
And the entire goal is the room is going to go around and kind of tear it apart and show you all the things that you weren't thinking about.
And that was like terrifying to me.
And so practices like that, like showing up over and over to do that was really amazing.
I think I look back and I'm like, I'm really glad I did that, even though I was so nervous and it was really hard at the time.
I think also jumping into management was an example.
I was asked to manage and I was just like, sure.
But I had no idea what it really entailed or what that meant.
And just the next couple of years were just me feeling like I didn't really know what I was doing and all one-on-ones felt awkward and trying to figure out how to
do things for the first time, whether it was like give an offer for the first time or negotiate for the first time or tell someone that's not working out for the first time.
Like all of these were hard and I felt scared.
Yeah, I do challenges for myself every year.
I love January.
I love the chance to sit down and reflect and think about what we learned last year and what should we think about and dream about for the year ahead.
So I have this magical time.
