From the Boardroom to the Battlefield of Doing.
There was a time in my life when I was a boardroom girl — sitting around tables, discussing ideas, sharing visions, and mapping out strategies. And I still deeply respect those who choose that path. But over time, I realized — that wasn’t my space.
I am a doer.
An implementer.
A solid solutions provider.
I enjoy making lemonades for others from my lemons.
An innovator.
The girl who gets her hands dirty, who dares tl dream, who keeps her mind busy building.
I thank God because, in my few years on this earth, I’ve dared to try — many things. Some succeeded beyond my imagination, others failed spectacularly. But every experience taught me something priceless.
Last Sunday, Justus of the Shared Moments with Justus — a dear friend who has stood by me through my highs and lows over the past four years — asked me a simple yet profound question:
“What’s your greatest achievement in the last four years?”
I won’t tell you my answer just yet. You’ll have to watch the Shared Moments with Justus documentary (coming soon for their 5th anniversary — and yes, you’re invited!).
But tonight, as I close my Thursday, I found myself asking a deeper question:
What’s my greatest achievement in life?
I’ve worn many hats — actor, politician, policy maker, mentor, personal assistant, volunteer, radio creative, philanthropist, activist, feminist, financial analyst, urban economist, civic educator, SRH advocate, entrepreneur, teacher, author, open mic poet, student... the list goes on. (This is why I laugh when I see some people assume I am just but one of the many things God has entrusted me to be.)
Yet through it all, my greatest achievement has been accepting the call by nature to heal.
Today, by the grace of God, I’m able to bring healing — in different ways — to thousands. And maybe that’s what it’s always been about. I was always a healer. I was always Carol Your Health Coach
I’m not sure why I felt moved to share this tonight, but I know there’s purpose in it.
Ni hayo kwa sasa.
Goodnight.
