Hello Reader, After the Southwest alert glitch, I received hundreds of emails. Some were hard to read, but most were thoughtful, kind, and deeply encouraging. I have been reading every single one, and I want to say thank you. Your messages reminded me of something important. The flight attendant I was working with was in the forward galley with headphones on, the galley curtain closed, and watching a movie. He didn’t even know I was being attacked in the aisle. That moment changed everything...

Hello Reader, Southwest Airlines opens flight attendant applications tomorrow! This is one of the most competitive flight attendant positions in the U.S., and the hiring window is typically short. In past years, the site has even crashed because of the number of applicants. You’ll want to refresh frequently and apply the moment it opens. You can go through the link on the ➡️Future Flight Attendant Job Board. Even if the link on the job board does not yet say "hiring" click on it anyway. If...

Hello Reader, Happy Juneteenth! Juneteenth is a time to remember that, even though freedom was delayed, denied, or disguised in various ways, we are still here, still evolving, and still breaking through ceilings that were said to be unbreakable. It’s a moment to recognize that the sky isn’t the limit; it’s just the beginning. Your very presence in spaces where someone tried to keep you out is a form of freedom. If you're fighting to be seen because of your ethnicity, nationality, identity,...

Hello Reader, My kids are home for the summer, and the first thing they did was clean their rooms. I almost fainted. Full-on decluttering. It spoke directly to my love language: clearing space to make room for what’s next. And then this happened: one of the deer near our property was hit by a car. It was unfortunate. But then the vultures came. They cleared it. The deer wasn’t wasted. Nature took care of what was left, with purpose. It reminded me of something important: clearing, in every...

Hello Reader, I hope you're having a great week so far. My highlight of the week? One of our community members invited me to the American Airlines Virtual Graduation, and I got emotional watching him get his wings. He started with one airline and upgraded to American, and I'm so proud to have played a small part in his journey through it all. I appreciate that American Airlines offers virtual graduation options for friends and family. When I graduated, my husband (then fiancé) flew standby...

Hello Reader, I hope you are having a great week so far. We’ve had friends visiting from out of state, and it’s been so nice to slow down and enjoy the wildlife through fresh eyes. A robin built her nest in one of the barns, and this week, the eggs hatched, tiny, fuzzy baby birds just starting out. My friend got this amazing picture and it made me think of all the aspiring flight attendants in our community. I call you my baby birds, and this space is your nest. You’re growing and preparing,...

Hello Reader, I've been trying to snap a photo of Tom Turkey, whom I mentioned last week, but he’s too smart. He knows it’s hunting season so he won't let me get close. I’m relieved; he’s too exquisite to end up on anyone’s table. Now we have a new pair of visitors: two Canadian geese are scouting the property, looking for the perfect place to lay their eggs. I hope they choose our home. I would love to see a few goslings waddling around. The geese got me thinking: we’re all searching for the...
