Embracing PowerMoves: A Journey from Principal to Purposeful Parenthood

On December 29, 2023, as the world braced for a new year, I stood at the crossroads of change, having decided to resign from my role as principal. This decision, while seemingly audacious, was rooted in a deep desire ignited by a momentous event earlier that year – becoming a mother on September 19th.

As I cradled my newborn son in my arms, an overwhelming realization dawned upon me: my deepest desire was not confined to the walls of a conventional office. The longing to be with my son, to teach him, and to grow alongside him became the driving force behind many of my life-altering decisions.

In the backdrop of my sisterly Sol's rallying cry of "PowerMoves," the decision to resign transformed into a profound commitment to a purposeful parenthood. Sol, the embodiment of PowerMoves, had shown me that life's most powerful decisions are rooted in authenticity and aligning with one's deepest aspirations.

Leaving the role of a principal wasn't an abandonment of responsibility; it was a bold step towards the responsibility of shaping the future of my own family. The fear of not having a traditional job was eclipsed by the anticipation of being present for my son's every milestone, guiding him through the journey of life.

In those moments of uncertainty, my faith in God became an anchor. I entrusted my career, my decisions, and my aspirations to a higher power, knowing that this shift wasn't just a leap into the unknown but a purposeful stride toward a more meaningful life.

As you contemplate your own PowerMoves, remember that life's most transformative decisions often arise from the intersection of personal passion and a commitment to a greater purpose. Don't let fear hinder the pursuit of your deepest desires, be they professional or personal.

May my journey inspire you to embrace change, trust in your aspirations, and take the PowerMoves that lead you to a life filled with purpose and fulfillment. May your path be illuminated by the joy and the courage to design a life that aligns with your truest self.
