My Past 365 Days at RDM as a Content Strategist
Well…it’s here! Hello everyone my name is Flo, I am the Content Strategist here at Roys Digital Media and today I turn 1 (not actually haha, but my RDM journey turns 1)! As I reflect, I can’t believe what a ride it has been over the past year. RDM was a beautiful accident that came into my life. I was lost in what I wanted to do, with a pandemic following behind me. Through the support of my family and dedication, I decided to apply for a position to get my foot in the door of a field that many had told me was difficult to get into. At the time, I had minimal experience, but I thought to myself, “if not now, then when?”. It was scary to push myself, the fear of not making it almost cost me not to submit my job application, but I pushed that fear aside and thank the Lord I did because I was welcomed in with open arms and an opportunity to learn like never before. Along with this, I was supported in ways I didn’t know possible. At the time, I perceived bosses as they were depicted in movies - rude, cranky, and too busy. However, my boss, Emma, is anything but that. She dedicates time to helping me grow, has celebrated my victories with me, and consults me when I am faced with a dilemma.
These past 365 days at RDM have brought me more in a career than I ever thought I deserved. I have grown my experience and have had the opportunity to learn from two leaders and four co-workers that mean the world to me. I have made friendships that go beyond the walls of work. The women I get to call my co-workers and friends inspire, support, and encourage me to continue to be the best version of myself that I can be. I have learned to be confident in my work, that I bring value to a workplace, and that communication is the key to success. I have worked hard, laughed loudly, and continue to push myself every day to grow and keep excelling.
The last year has flipped my life upside down in the most beautiful way imaginable. Roys is a home away from home, a family that loves endlessly and supports till the end. I have never met more passionate and driven people. If I were to tell myself a year ago of all the things I have been able to accomplish, I wouldn’t believe myself. I know that Flo from a year ago is unbelievably proud of the Flo I am today.
Now that I think about it, 365 days seems minuscule to the infinite memories, moments, and accomplishments that have come my way this past year. I am truly excited for my journey to continue and to reflect next year on what more has come my way. It truly is wild just how much can happen in a year. So, happy 1st work birthday to myself (that sounds funny), and here’s to many many more content shoots, laughs, insightful conversations, growth and so much more!
Xoxo, Flo
