As I sit here on a Monday, just one month after turning 50, I find myself reflecting again on the story I began sharing leading up to that milestone. I waited a bit before putting these thoughts together for my blog, giving myself time to process. Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about the current state of athletic communications, as well as the realities facing those approaching graduation, finishing internships or graduate assistantships, and navigating the broader job search.
If You Feel Stuck, You’re in the Right Place
Most people don’t end up here because everything is going perfectly.
They end up here because something feels off.
Maybe you’re:
Applying for jobs and not getting responses
Working hard but not moving forward
Unsure what your next step is supposed to be
Or simply tired of feeling like you’re doing everything “right” with nothing to show for it
If that’s you—this space is for you.
What This Blog Is (And What It Isn’t)
This isn’t a place for empty motivation or generic advice.
You won’t find:
“Just follow your passion”
“Everything happens for a reason”
Or surface-level career tips that sound good but don’t actually help
What you will find here:
Clear ways to think about where you are
Honest conversations about what keeps people stuck
Practical frameworks you can actually use
And perspective that helps you move forward—not just feel better temporarily
What I Focus On
Everything here centers around one idea:
Helping you move from stuck → clear → intentional
That shows up in a few key ways:
Breaking down why effort isn’t always translating into results
Identifying where you’re relying on “workarounds” instead of real progress
Helping you build direction when you don’t have it yet
Giving you tools to approach your job search and career with purpose
Where to Start
If you’re new, start here:
The Survivability of Glitch Building
→ Understanding how we adapt to systems—and where that can hold us backAsk: Is This Helping You Grow—Or Keeping You Stuck?
→ A simple question that exposes what’s really moving you forward
A Quick Reality Check
You don’t need more information.
You need:
Better clarity
More intentional action
And the willingness to confront what isn’t working
That’s what this space is built to help you do.
Stay Connected
If something here resonates with you, don’t just move on.
Reach out
Share what you’re working through
Or connect with me on LinkedIn
Because this isn’t just about content—it’s about helping people move forward.
Start With This
Before you leave this page, ask yourself one question:
Where in my life am I busy—but not actually moving forward?
Sit with that.
Then go find your next step.
