What do you do when you're at the top of your game career-wise but you then receive the greatest news of your life that totally changes it all. Even after years of being told it wasn't possible, you learn that you're pregnant.
You're convinced you'll be a super mom-to-be. You've seen many other women handle pregnancy while working and so you plan to continue working in your great job, continue to travel the world and all will be great.
Then your body has other plans and you end up being sick every day for 8 months. You know you're not performing your typical best in your job but like many of us do, you continue to deny what's happening and soldier on. I can do it. You, me, Cindy….we've all said it.
Cindy says now that she was not only in denial of her health but that she didn't want to let go of her old life. She had a tough choice or numerous choices to tackle during what felt like the height of the career she worked so hard for.
So join us as Cindy shares more of her story and the key steps she took to ensure a healthy and happy life for her and her daughter. How this life journey, including all the twists and turns and trauma, has created the resilient and strong person she is today and how she is using her podcast to inspire and add to our culture.
Cindy Lee Robles is with me today and although she seems to really like living in the Bay, San Francisco, she is self described and very proud to be Brooklyn All Day.
She will share more about how having her daughter totally rocked her world in a moment but first let me tell you a bit more about her.
Cindy Lee started her career working in the Hospitality Industry as an Operations Manager for over 20 years as well as working in the fitness community for 10 years. But as she'll detail in a bit, Cindy lee is now on a mission to add to the culture with her Podcast called Guests in Your life - I hope you'll check it out.
She was one of the folks who inspired me to start sharing my story in this podcast series and she now helps others take their unique journey and help them build their personal brand. She is a motivational speaker and she noticed something interesting as she met more and more people. That some seemed to have a hard time of letting go of certain thoughts, ideas and even each other And sometimes when those moments were gone, it felt like a loss.
So her podcast, Guests in your life, was created to highlight such moments and people's thoughts and ideas and to help people let go of the things they have no control over. To help heal, cope and laugh. Cindy has an audience who enjoys listening to hear stories of the many people she shared moments with and she has given a voice to those who want to share a little about who they are and hope it helps to add to our culture.
