How Coffee got us through 2020
Hear from six Glitter Cat trainees and mentors about how coffee got them through 2020, and into the first part of 2021, or as many say “2020 part 2”.
It’s not that I deserve grief but I deserve to own my grief just as I deserve to own my joy whether that be my friends who would never let me fall on my own or the community that Glitter Cat gave me in an industry that I felt had all but abandoned me. In a time of quiet chaos, it can often feel like nothing is moving at all. With things so incredibly destabilizing and turbulent then why do I feel like I’ve stalled? Must I create chaos for chaos’ sake? For a sense of motion? I was spinning out. How do I allow myself to move forward with stillness and with presence? That’s what I truly needed to ask myself and eventually, I did. Somewhere down the road surviving must turn into thriving. It simply has to. I can’t just look over the horizon I have to see the signs in front of me that could potentially lead me there- at least in that direction. Sometimes you’ve got places to be and sometimes a drive is just a drive.
