Today I can't help but feel blessed at how I am surrounded by such strong women.
Work has been immensely crazy lately with the upcoming trade of ownership, and many people leaving ahead of it. All of us have had to double, even triple down on duties just to make sure everything gets done, and obviously in my business, the show is going on no matter what is going on behind the scenes.
Through this craziness, I have witnessed most everyone stepping up. However it is the work of my producer Aly that continues to motivate me to continue to be a producer. She has on several occasions had to act as executive producer for the 5/6p, as well as produce and EP her own 10/11p shows. The same goes for when Aly is gone. Our EP Kimmy will solo it all too... and that blows my mind!
Same goes for the ladies I work with who have to deal with this crazy life of news AND be wives/mothers. These women are so dedicated to work, but also to their families, and in this field, juggling both duties can be hard, but these women do it with a grace and attitude that is so inspirational.
I know I am just beginning in my producer duty, but if I could be anywhere near as awesome as these ladies for just one show, I'd be ever so grateful. I already am though just for the simple fact that these are the people I get to learn from, and work with daily.
My life has been filled with strong women. My mother, grandmothers, great-aunts, great grandmothers, friends. All of them have a story of how they overcame situations. I guess everyone does. I just love hearing those stories. It pushes me to move more towards my dreams when I see/think of all these wonderful women. How could I deny strength like that when I am surrounded by it?
Once again. I am so very thankful for the opportunities I have been given... especially where they have all led me, and for the amazing people I have met along the way.
