Welcome to my newsletter

Welcome to the first edition of Shelby's Corner, my newsletter discussing stories around life, love, and authenticity as a multi-talented professional.

Who is this for? Multi-talented professionals seeking an authentic space to exist. People have many passions, transcending far beyond "just a writer," or "just a physician's assistant." Yet we're told to double down on our niche to succeed online. If you reject that idea and wish to express yourself dynamically, this space is for you.

Why subscribe? LinkedIn is full of platitudes, faux authenticity, and the clash of old and new ideas. Housing space to be authentic — Miriam Webster's 2023 word of the year — is something I've been craving. LinkedIn is also full of stories, but are they the most meaningful ones? That's what I want to explore in this ongoing thought bubble.

What to expect? Stories. What I've learned from my own POV professionally and personally, what I've learned from others, and how to transmute these observations into your life holistically. You'll also get smatterings of writing, think pieces to explore, and even exercises to try out on your own. It's a little corner of the internet that unites my personal brand all in one place.

Please comment if there's something you'd like to see, too, and I'm happy to bring up discussion points in future installments. Consider this your column on all things hope, heartbreak, and everything in between (they always say life is what happens when you're busy doing other things, after all).
