They say “April is a promise that May is bound to keep” …. And April delivered! From networking opportunities, learning, family time, good food, and too much dancing.
Let’s recap the month!
I attended a Yelp rooftop networking event. It was one of those nights that just lingers in your memory in the best way. Watching the sunset over Tampa Bay and the chatter of new connections forming all around was simply heartwarming.
As usual, the event brought us food lovers, aka Elites, together for an evening of mingling and mouthwatering bites that only the Beacon could serve.
I only tried two new restaurants in April. Now, as a single woman, I am more intentional about where and how often I dine out. It’s all about enjoying the experience without stretching myself too thin.
As I wrote in my previous post, my main purpose in life is to learn and grow. As a nurse leader, I believe that growing is not just a personal journey; it’s essential for the well-being of the team that I lead and the patients I serve. I had the privilege to attend a Finance in Healthcare Symposium by the ACHE Western Florida, and it was truly an enlightening experience. The symposium covers vital strategies and insights into the financial side of healthcare. These insights didn’t just give me knowledge, but the necessary tools to lead more effectively.
I celebrated Easter with the family, it was everything we could have hoped for. We ate, we drank, and of course, we danced. There’s no Haitian gathering without music and food, and our Easter was nothing short of perfect.
This season of my life has been one of rediscovery. As part of my healing journey after divorce, I made the decision to try something bold and new. I started learning salsa and bachata. It’s been transformative, not just physically, but emotionally.
There’s something freeing about letting my body move to the rhythm, feeling the music, and witnessing my progress week by week. Every new step learned, every mastered spin feels like a small victory, a quiet reclaiming of myself.
It’s a beautiful month filled with hope and joy. Here’s to carrying all that energy and these blessings into May!
