Advocating For Yourself: In Work And Life

Have you ever just woken up with body pains and aches for no known reason? If not, then you must not be 30+ so give it time. The ladies do their weekly catch-up on aging and on how cycling hurts the lady parts. Sherene’s cycling bike is the definition of “no pain no gain”. 

As they dive into the main topic, “Advocating for yourself: In work and life”, they share important information that they have both experienced that adults do not share enough with young people growing up. They discuss requesting promotions and increases, being willing to move to another company, and realizing that “NO” isn’t the worst thing you hear in life. Companies do not usually reward based on merit if you do not recognize that you are worthy of the reward. Be your biggest cheerleader and let them know your worth. 

In the Bible breakdown, they cover Genesis 11 and why God thought humanity was too powerful when they all spoke the same language and worked together to achieve goals. It speaks a lot to the divides in today’s society.

Finally, the historical fact of the week is about the portable mini-computer that is many people’s lifeline…the cell phone. Would you pay the equivalent of $9,100 for a cell phone that was the size of a brick? Well, you would if you wanted to be one of the first to have the revolutionary technology.
