Have you ever been beyond excited about what's ahead but sad to leave parts of the present behind?
As I type this, I'm anxiously awaiting tomorrow.
You see, it will be my last day with Cigna. It's going to be a bittersweet day but I'm beyond excited about the
days to come. Looking back over the past 3+ years of my life, I have
been incredibly blessed to have worked for a stellar company and
with wonderful people. Have there been bumps, bruises, increased stress
levels and questions as to why I went there? I'll keep this G Rated and just say, "absolutely." That's the
case for most, if not all, jobs though. Change is tough and I'm still learning how to bend and adapt to it.
From being there, I learned so
much more about true empathy, understanding
where others are coming from and trying to love them right where they
are. I've gained a plethora of business and insurance knowledge and
wouldn’t trade it for anything. The best part about it was the people
there. There were times I sat and cried with members
who just needed someone to talk to or who I could wholeheartedly relate
to. There were also times when people yelled and screamed and I didn’t
necessarily respond with grace. We'll just call those lessons
learned. :)
Along the way there were friendships formed that I wouldn't trade
for anything. The people I've been privileged to work for and along
side have been a strong team and taught me so much about what it is to
be an independent woman who works hard for what
she wants while knowing it's okay to ask questions or for guidance.
I've been fortunate for to experience interactions in "Corporate
America" and to leave a company knowing I gave it my all and it was
appreciated. Leaving there will be most difficult because
of the incredible encounters and bonds formed.
New mercies are refreshing and that's why new beginnings are so
exciting. I feel like I should be more terrified about starting anew
but there's such peace with the excitement. I'm done being afraid and
excited about what's to come. It's been confirmed
countless times over the past two weeks that this was a God given
opportunity and an answer to much prayer. Hope for the future is never
lost so here's to the next step on this indescribably journey that's
pretty much just begun!
