The Many Versions of Me: Balancing Passion, Purpose, and Support

As an entrepreneur, mom, cancer survivor, boss and everything in between, I've come to realize that life is about embracing and balancing the different versions of ourselves. Each role I take on brings its own set of challenges, but it’s also what keeps life dynamic and exciting. Whether I’m attending a concert, spending quiet time at home, leading a team at Mekky Media, or dancing through life in the ballroom, each part of who I am contributes to the whole person I show up as every day.

It hasn’t always been easy to manage these many roles, but one thing I’ve learned is that having just the right mix of passions, goals, teammates, and colleagues makes all the difference. When you surround yourself with people who understand and support you, it becomes possible to juggle all of these versions of yourself while still finding time to have fun and thrive.

Passions and Purpose

The key to finding balance between all these roles lies in aligning your passions with your purpose. As an entrepreneur, I’m driven to help clients grow and achieve their goals. But I also need to make space for the things that light me up outside of work. I’ve found joy in music, in spending time with my family, and in pursuing things that let me express my creativity—like ballroom dancing. These passions fuel me and remind me that life isn’t just about professional success; it’s about living fully.

The Support System

None of this would be possible without the incredible network of support around me. My family, teammates, and colleagues play such an important role in ensuring I can show up as all versions of myself. Whether it’s being there to cheer me on as a mom or lending a hand at work, the people I surround myself with help me maintain a sense of balance. It’s this support system that allows me to take on multiple roles and do so with joy.

Embracing Every Role

I’m not just a business owner or a cancer survivor. I’m a mom, a speaker, a dancer, a friend, and a concert-goer…the list goes on. Each of these roles is valuable, and none should be minimized or dismissed. The beauty of life comes from being able to show up as all these versions of yourself without feeling like you’re neglecting any part of who you are.

By embracing these different facets of my identity and surrounding myself with the right people and resources, I’ve learned that it’s not about balancing everything perfectly—it’s about making space for what matters most and finding joy in each role.

So here’s to showing up as every version of yourself, thriving in your many passions, and remembering that with the right network and mindset, you can do it all—and have fun while doing it. ??
