Always Speak Life with Vannesia Darby123: From Dial-Up to DMs: Are We Friends IRL?Like I mentioned in the last blog, I never thought my offline friends in Yahoo!

Always Speak Life with Vannesia Darby120: Unclench Your JawI'm resharing a message from 2020 that is still relevant today. I wrote it a week after the murder of George Floyd. If you remember in 2020, that murder was a catalyst for a world wide civil rights movement. It was something I had never seen before - it sparked the question for me. What is freedom in America? As Juneteenth approaches, we may consume more content around injustice, America's history, and current events - even in the midst of companies removing DEI positions.

Always Speak Life with Vannesia Darby113: Move with PurposeI’ve had to remind myself to take my time. If God is not rushing, then let's follow His lead. Certain goals may take more research, development, strategy, support, time, and, of course, grace. Discernment will let us know when we are doing too much or moving too quickly. And we aren’t just moving to move, but we are moving with purpose.

Always Speak Life with Vannesia Darby110: Here’s How to Quit Your JobLook, if you’re a high performer (which I believe you are because you’re here!), believe that your skills are transferable and that you are a hot commodity.
