It’s Friday again and while I had some great ideas for more insightful and useful post today, I decided to do something a little different.
Last week I was nominated for a blog award for up and coming bloggers with under 200 followers (I am speeding toward 200, but who’s counting?). I don’t always nominate other bloggers because I want to keep my posts useful for you lovely readers, but I thought it would be fun to answer some of the questions that came from that nomination. If you have read my story, you already know a bit about how I got to where I am, but the following questions come from the lovely Janelle Lavier. Go check out her blog and leave her some love!
1. What inspired you to write?
Well, I have always been a writer in some form or another. I wrote poetry in high school and always had a journal in college, but I started this blog with the intention of it being a place I could begin to build my future life coaching business. Little did I know 6 short months after starting this blog, I had an epiphany to finally fulfill my dream of being a life coach instead of making excuses. So, here I am!
2. Your favorite color is?
Anyone that knows me well knows my favorite color is purple. Did you know that is also a color of royalty and spirituality? Fancy huh?
3. Your thoughts the first time you posted on your blog were?
Who wants to read what I have to say? Turns out many more people than I thought! Glad I didn’t quit. 🙂
4. Fill in the blank. My high school prom was_____________?
Fun with friends, but not what you see in the movies.
5. True or False? Being an adult is better then being a kid?
False. I am constantly trying to get in touch with my childlike nature and wonder. Life is so magical when you can do that!
6. Fill in the blank….Floor hockey to me is_________?
A foreign concept.
7. If you could have any super hero power it would be?
I would love to fly.
8. Why did you pick that power?
Because feeling the wind all around you and going where ever you want would be the ultimate idea of freedom. Not only that, but it would definitely be good for the environment too. No pollution!
9. Have you ever broken a bone?
Nope. (knock on wood)
10. What are 2 words to describe yourself?
Passionate and Dramatic (shhh…don’t tell anyone)
A few fun facts I wanted to include about myself.
1. My name (Lamisha) is a family name. My great-grandmother’s name was Lumisha and my mom changed the ‘u’ to an ‘a’. Thanks Mom!!
2. I was once a tap dancing Santa in a holiday show. I got to wear a full on beard, wig, hat, Santa suit etc., talk about an adventure!
3. I once traveled to Duluth, MN to work with a young singer on her stage presence. It was a paid gig which was awesome for me at the time. And it was something that scared the day-lights outta me when I decided to do it.
4. In addition to my writing on my blog, I also write book reviews, children’s app reviews, and greeting cards-just call me Mrs. Deeds.
5. I absolutely 100% believe that your dreams can and will come true no matter what they may be. I have no doubt that life coaching is what I was meant to do and I want to help as many clients as possible to do the same.
