Lessons From The Ground Floor | My Audio Journal – Ep. 3

Hello, you! Welcome back to My Audio Journal.

In this entry, I’m taking it back to the beginning—those awkward, uncertain early career moments where every room feels unfamiliar and every opportunity feels just out of reach. But it’s in those exact moments that the groundwork for everything is laid.

I reflect on the things I did (and still do) that helped me build my career: staying late, introducing myself, saying yes to unglamorous tasks, and learning how to be valuable in any space I walk into. If you’re just starting out—or even restarting—this one’s for you.

These are the gems I wish someone had told me, and a reminder that every great story starts with a few small, consistent steps.
