Proud of Me: A Night That Didn’t Go as Planned, but Went as Meant

I went to my book signing last night not knowing what to expect. For the first 45 minutes, not a single person walked in. Eventually five people came — and only two bought a book, because the others had already supported me before. But the truth is… I didn’t walk away discouraged. I walked away proud. Proud that I showed up for myself in the middle of heavy grief. Proud that I sat there, present, available, and committed to my purpose. And proud that the love in that room took up every inch of space the bodies didn’t.This episode is a reminder that you don’t need a packed room to prove your worth — sometimes the win is simply showing up.
