My newfound immersion in creativity, led me to YouTube. One day, I sat in Prospect Park, propped up my phone, and started talking. Thus, “The Power of the Pivot” was born. Now I’ve got 15 videos on the channel and a nice little momentum going. I always shied away from doing YouTube because I always thought I hated being in front of a camera talking, but sometimes, we just let fear get the best of us.

The first series featured on the channel is “The Power of the Pivot.” In these videos, I’m sharing some of my best tips on preparing for and executing a shift in your life. Usually, this conversation happens regarding career shifts. However, I’m going beyond that. Sometimes, you want to reinvent yourself. Other times, you re-evaluate social circles & make changes regarding how you want to engage.

The Power of the Pivot: Take Control of Your Life

In the first video, I’m talking about the messaging I received growing up about “sticking to it” vs. the noncommittal nature of the world I graduated into. Leaning into “the pivot” helped me not to take things so personally and never overcommit to an experience that could change at any moment. Watch the video:

Pivot 2: I’m a Quitter

The second video of the series gets a bit more personal. I discuss some of the pivots I’ve had to make in my life journey thus far. After deciding that I was in situations that could no longer work for who I was becoming, I chose to end what was comfortable to move toward what would fulfill me.

The Power of the Pivot 3: A Reinvention

Lastly, the most recent video explores the idea that “the pivot” is simply an opportunity for reinvention. Even if it was not a pivot initiated by free will, before settling on an option that’s more of the same old, consider that this is a moment for you to do something completely new. I outline three steps you can take to facilitate self-renewal. Dream your biggest.

While I intended to keep this series to just 3 videos, I think I’ll be adding to this series from time to time to share more nuggets from my journey. In an upcoming video, I plan to discuss ways to assess a moment requiring some change.
