Hi Friends! Thrilled to shared with you a long time friend and new blogger Jessica Posey at The Blog of Jessica Posey. Jessica and I both work at Vanderbilt, and I definitely feel like she is a kindred spirit. She also happens to be one of the most warm and kind people, who always makes you feel like a million bucks. I am so excited that she took the plunge in to the blogging community, and I am anxious to hear how much you all love her after getting to know her a bit.
"Happy Friday Lovefest, DahliaLynn Followers! I am
Jessica from the The Blog of Jessica Posey and I am honored to be
partaking in this amazing series. Jessica and I both work at
Vanderbilt University and when I first met her, I was in awe
of her beauty – both inside and out. We bonded over our love affair of
queso dip and handbags (specifically, me coveting her handbag
collection). I love helping people feel positive and confident, but I
have to admit that when it pertains to thinking of
myself, it took me awhile to figure out the things I love about ME. So
I want to thank Jessica for the reminder.
I love
being a mentor – My office hires student workers every summer and each
year, there is usually one that I try to become a mentor to. I offer
them guidance, encouragement and a shoulder to
lean on and I absolutely love it. College is tough – but it is even
more challenging when things on the home front aren’t going well. I can
relate because I didn’t exactly have a traditional childhood. I know
that I would have loved to have a mentor in
college and I just try to be that someone for these kids.
I love
that I am dork– Everyone has their own definitions of what a dork maybe,
but I was never part of the popular crowd in school and I am glad I
wasn’t. I was in journalism, took AP classes,
and was in student government, played softball and when my classmates
were partying, I was usually at home helping my dad take care of my
sister or choosing to be curled up in bed reading books. And if I could
go back in time – I wouldn’t change a thing.
I love
being a best friend – It is one thing to have real sisters, but it is
immensely gratifying to be considered a sista’ from another mista’.

I love my best friends and I think I can safely say they love me right
back. I love the good times together that is almost always guaranteed,
the quality conversations
that are had, and the total honesty and no judgment policy that is
shared between best friends.
I love
conquering my fears – I am not someone who has lots of fears, but this
year I made a promise to myself that I wouldn’t let fear hold me back
from the things that I want to do. Fear is
all-mental and it such an amazing feeling when you can kick fear in the ass! Don’t let fear hold you back from your dreams.
I love
my teeth – When I was a kid, I use to suck my fingers and my two front
teeth were pushed forward and had a space in between them. As soon as I
stopped sucking my fingers, my teeth miraculously
moved back into a normal position. I was very fortunate that after
that, I didn’t need braces. My teeth make my smile one of my best
physical features.
I love
my life – Sounds cliché, but I do. Sure, it isn’t all roses, but whose
is? I love being a wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt, cousin, best
friend, co-worker and acquaintance. My life is
beautiful, challenging, wonderful and all mine. J"
Knowing Jessica in real life, I can attest to all of these amazing
things. I especially love Jessica's first love about being a mentor.
So many of us out there mentor people as a part of our job, but rarely
stop to think about the wonderful impact we are having. I want to
extend another big welcome in to the blog world for Jessica. I also
wanted to share a little secret, there might or might not be a discount
code on Jessica's blog today for DahliaLynn jewels, so get on over there
and check it out. Happy Friday...J
So fun that you work with another blogger friend! You can talk ideas and relate so easily to on and another :)
