Awareness in Transitions

Why Transitions Matter: Lessons from My Journey

Life is full of transitions—some planned, others unexpected. Whether it’s starting a new career, stepping into retirement, navigating personal changes, or embracing an entirely new chapter, transitions challenge us to grow, reflect, and adapt. They are opportunities for transformation, even when they feel daunting.

In this space, I share insights and lessons from my own transitions—personal and professional. From leaving a long-held leadership role to exploring new ventures, and even reflecting on spiritual growth, I’ve come to see transitions not as endings, but as beginnings waiting to unfold.

Why “Awareness in Transitions” Matters

Awareness is the key to navigating change. It’s about being present, mindful, and intentional in how we move forward. Transitions can be overwhelming, but they also invite us to:

  • Pause and Reflect: What is this change teaching me?

  • Find New Connections: Who can support and inspire me in this journey?

  • Create Possibilities: How can I turn uncertainty into an opportunity?

Through mindfulness practices, storytelling, and practical advice, this blog aims to help you:

  • Connect with communities that empower you.

  • Discover new paths forward, even when the way feels unclear.

My Journey in Transitions

This space is inspired by my own experiences:

  • Stepping away from a long-standing leadership role and navigating the unexpected.

  • Starting a new venture, Striver Health Innovations, which brings my passions for healthcare, technology, and public health to life.

Transitions have challenged me, but they’ve also helped me grow. They’ve pushed me to reflect on what truly matters and find strength in new beginnings. My hope is that by sharing my journey, you’ll feel inspired and supported in your own.
