When I started my journey on Steemit in June 2017, I had absolutely no idea how much it would change and impact my life – but boy oh boy has it changed it!!!! - In a thousand different ways and every single one for the better. I finally found the courage to walk away from a business and career that was literally killing me, I decided to focus more on writing which is something I have always had a love for, and suddenly I was able to shift my focus onto helping others through motivation… which is something I have always wanted to do. Just prior to joining Steemit, I had discussed at length with family and friends that I would like to do something with my life and time which helped other people in some way… whether it was motivational speaking, courses or psychology – I did not know… all I knew was that I wanted to change peoples lives for the better.
Most of my early posts here on Steemit were me sharing my life journey – which as many of you will know, has not been an easy one. The process of writing and sharing these details publically for the first time, allowed me to continue my healing journey and it also began inspiring other people, giving them the strength to see that they too could overcome anything they wanted to. Initially, I thought that this was how the whole “helping people” was going to fit into my life, and I suppose to a degree it still is, because I continue to share motivations, inspirations and stories from time to time – but no – that was not to be the primary aspect of it.
I know now, without a shadow of a doubt how that desire has slotted into my life – and it has been through the building of my #powerhousecreatives (@steemitbloggers) community. This has become my true passion and love and every single day I get to play a part in supporting and empowering the people in my absolutely BEAUTIFUL little family! I get enormous satisfaction from their joys and happiness, their successes and achievements and to me, THAT is how you know you are doing something that satisfies your soul!
This was brought to life even so much more in this last week with the delegation dpoll and my passion for my community and this platform as a whole has quadrupled because of that contest! I am so incredibly inspired and excited for the way forward! So excited in fact – that I actually missed something VERY SPECIAL (to me anyway) that I have been waiting for and working toward for a year and a half now! I missed the moment my rep ticked over to 70! Hahaha!!!! I actually bloody missed the moment! LOL – My partner in crime and “always there bear” @zord189 actually pointed it out to me and he is not even “around” at the moment as he is celebrating the Chinese New Year with his family… and even he didn’t miss it! Lol!
So yes – 70! Damn it took a long time to get here!!! Hahahaha!!!! I wont lie… it feels good!!! And I was also getting real tired of having to stare at a number which has so many sexual connotations attached to it HAHAHAHA!!!! - Moving along swiftly lol….
So I just wanted to make this quick little post of gratitude and appreciation to each and every one of you that has played a role in helping me to achieve this! Love you all to bits!

So, what's wrong with 69? No, don't answer that!
So glad you have reached this milestone and even gladder that you have found your niche and gladdest because you made me part of the journey. I still have a looong way to go, but I'll get there. I can't believe, too, what a different space I'm in, in comparison with when you asked me to join. There, too, a long way to go, but looking back does help one to go forward.
Ok, now I'll shuddup - getting to philosophical and there's other work to do!
Congratulations!
You deserve it and all the other accolades

hahaha @matkodurko - I have no issues with disclosing my age... I am not "one of those women" lol - I am 38... turning 39 in June this year. I left school mid grade 10 and went to study. I had a few jobs and then left my last place of employ at the end of 1999. I started working on my own in 2000. I opened my design and print shop in 2007 and gave it all up and handed it to my shop manager Dec 2017.... so a little longer than two months haha - but everyone's journey is different, and when you are ready to make the change, you will know. ;)

@jaynie,
Thatta girl, Jaynie.
70 ... a long time in coming.
I'm at 57.5 and, at the pace I'm going, I'll hit 60 sometime around 2024 ... if I'm lucky. :-)
I think you have found your calling ... and your perfect perch in the world. This past week was the proof in the pudding that all you dared to believe in, and all that for which you worked so hard, was not for nothing.
The House that You Built cast the shadow of a giant and shook the castle to its core. There is not a single active Steemian who does not now know the name, Power House Creatives.
Our reputation now ... proceeds us.
I've said it before, but I'll say it again: You're Great Gift in life is your ability to "curate human beings." It has been my experience that resumes and portfolios ... and reputation scores, are all-but-useless in taking the Measure of a Man.
No skill in life is more important ... and no skill so rarely possessed.
Jaynie, keep doing what you are doing ... for what you are doing, is worth being done.
