Introduction

Hello! Welcome to the first episode of the podcast How She Ate an Elephant. This podcast and blog are going to serve as a “diary of accountability” for myself as I navigate through my 20’s as a professional young, black woman a few years out of college.

I find myself working to define my identify and career while simultaneously trying to maintain a healthy separation between the two. My idea for this podcast came out of my desire for personal growth and a realization that when I share my goals with others, I am more likely to hold myself to them. I’ve also noticed that when I talk about my adult growing pains with those around me that they often share my thoughts (and my confusion).

Each week, I will discuss one of my identified areas of improvement and share my action-items for how I plan to incorporate those changes into my life.

I’ve been thinking about this podcast for a while. It’s been over a year, to be honest. In that time, I have thought through my ideas for the theme and format of the first season but I would be lying if the reason for the delay wasn’t (in large part) because of Avoidance …which is why I am dedicating this first episode to it.

By releasing this episode, I am allowing myself to move forward on a path of self-improvement and to let go of the pride that was preventing me from exposing myself to failure (and criticism).

And just like that, progress overtakes perfection…

Book of the week

Who Moved My Cheese? by Ken Blanchard

I borrowed the ebook version of this book from my public library app but I also came across this FREE pdf of the entire book. You’re welcome.

I recommend reading the book first but below is a cartoon video of the plot summary.
