Every week I'll discuss working toward your big dreams. Tune in and engage with me!
Jess Johnson is on vacation in Maine. Her message to her family is to stay connected to the people that you love. She encourages you to take some time off this year and slow down. Have an amazing weekend.
Hello, Cadre family. I hope that my Internet connection is good. I just did a speed test so I should be good to go. I am in Maine. I am on vacation and I am having a brunch at my mom's best friend's house with two of her other friends. So it's my mom, three of her friends and me, and I'm in this home of one of my childhood second moms. I mean, my mom's group of friends were exactly the types of role models that I needed growing up. And their friend group is unstoppable. They have been getting together for over 40 years.
And to come home to my home state of Maine and see my mom spending time with her best friends and learning about their kids and their grandkids and just being in a really nostalgic place is so heartwarming. And I don't want to take too much time away from the people that are so important to me that I never get to see. So this is going to be really short and sweet today. But I just wanted to pass along this idea of staying in touch with the people that you love and it goes back to business too, and making your big dreams come true.
And I think it is one of the most important ideals that I have always held true to and that's networking and relationship building. And I see what solid, amazing relationships have done for the role models in my life. And it's something that I will continue to carry throughout my life, writing handwritten notes and remembering things about people and just making people feel really, really special. And I think that is one of the biggest backbones because you just never know who you're going to encounter later in your life.
So my message to you today is really take the time for the people that you love in your life, even if it's once a year that you reach out. Stay connected to people. I've mentioned this on this live stream before, but I still talk to my second grade teacher and you just never know. One of my mentors always says that the people that you meet in your twenties will become the CEO's, founders and most influential people in their forties, fifties and sixties. So stay in touch with the people that you have met along the way because you just never know how that relationship will end up serving you in the future.
And it just builds such a foundation for living a really fulfilled life. So that is my message to you today. And if you haven't taken some time off this year, I encourage you to take a few days to yourself if you can. And really slow down and just appreciate what's happening around you and take some time off, because, you know, burnout is not a badge of honor, and we all know that. And I am taking ten days to slow down. I miss my dog like crazy. I'm away from work. It's really, really hard, but it's also been incredibly fulfilling.
So I hope that you guys have an amazing week. Weekend. All the things Jess Johnson style. Hello, and thank you so much for your support. And I just. I really hope that you can enjoy the people around you and take some time to slow down. So have an amazing weekend. I love you all and just have the best summer. We just had the summer solstice, and it's really the official start to summer. So have an amazing summer. Hi, Marissa. Love you guys. Have an amazing weekend.
