100K LinkedIn Followers: Proof That HR Rebels Make the Best Entertainment!!!

100K: A Milestone with Meaning

This weekend, I crossed 100,000 followers on LinkedIn.
I sat with that number for a minute because it’s not just a metric, it’s a whole journey.

It feels bigger than a milestone. It feels like the payoff of showing up even when life was full, loud, and chaotic. I wrote so many posts with a baby monitor next to me. I created content in moments when most people would have chosen sleep. I shared pieces of my sobriety journey that felt vulnerable because I knew someone out there needed the reminder that they were not alone.

This community has grown with me through motherhood, leadership, hard lessons, growth seasons, and everything in between. This is not just a follower number. It is a reflection of connection. And for that, I am grateful.

The Real Work Behind Visibility

Nothing about this journey was quick. It was built slowly and consistently with intention. Some days I felt confident and some days I felt exhausted. Some posts went far and some posts barely moved. I kept going because my purpose was never tied to likes. My purpose was to help people lead and live with more clarity, courage, and honesty.

LinkedIn became a space to teach, inspire, share, and challenge outdated ideas about work and leadership. And each time I showed up, someone showed up with me. That is what kept me going.

The HR Leader Who Told the Truth Out Loud

My growth did not happen because I was polished or perfect. It happened because I told the truth. I talked about the messy parts of HR. I talked about leadership that actually works for real humans. I talked about being a working mom in roles that often forget working moms exist. I shared stories that people in corporate environments whisper about in hallways but rarely say out loud.

The moment I stopped trying to sound corporate and started sounding human, everything changed. People connected with honesty. They connected with real experience. They connected with the courage to say what everyone else is thinking.

What I Hope This Space Has Given You

I hope being here has reminded you that your voice matters. I hope it has given you more confidence to ask for what you deserve. I hope it has helped you see yourself as capable, talented, and worthy of a career that fits your life instead of the other way around.

I hope the content here taught you something, encouraged you, or made you feel less alone. This community means everything to me. You show up. You engage. You share your stories with me. And together we have built something real and supportive and meaningful.

How I Built This Community

People ask for the secret. There is no secret. It is service. It is storytelling. It is showing up even on the days when your confidence is low. It is speaking from lived experience instead of theory. It is giving people something useful, something comforting, or something honest that helps them in their real daily life.

I post from the heart. I post from personal growth. I post from leadership lessons that came with real consequences and real rewards. I post with the intention to help someone move forward. It is not magic. It is consistency combined with purpose.

A Love Letter to the People Who Believed in Me

Thank you. Truly. Thank you for reading, commenting, sharing, caring, and coming along on this wild journey with me. Thank you for trusting me with your stories, your struggles, your career questions, and your leadership experiences. Thank you for giving me the privilege of being part of your world through a screen.

I never take it lightly when someone tells me a post helped them ask for a raise or leave a toxic job or step into a leadership role with more confidence. Those moments mean more than metrics ever could. You are the reason I keep creating.

The Beginning of Something Bigger

One hundred thousand followers is not an ending. It is the beginning of a new chapter. I have bigger plans. I have more to teach. I have more stories to share. I have more courage now than ever before. And I want to bring this entire community with me as we continue growing, learning, and challenging the outdated parts of the workplace.

We are building something powerful here. Something rooted in honesty, growth, leadership, and humanity. And I am just getting started.

Thank you for being here. Thank you for believing in me. And thank you for letting me be a part of your journey.

The next chapter will be even better. 💜
