First coffee. Then things.
It is not really about the coffee. It is about being intentional with your day, your goals, and your actions. It is about pausing long enough to ask the questions most people skip.
What am I carrying from yesterday that I do not need today?
What do I actually want my day to feel like?
Who am I becoming?
This space lives at the intersection of leadership, culture, coaching, and growth. You will find essays, reflections, and tools from someone who has spent over 20 years in the people business and has never stopped being curious about what makes humans tick, what holds them back, and what happens when they finally decide to move.
I am Josy. Afro-Latina, originally from the Dominican Republic. My journey took me from Santo Domingo to New York City to Miami, where I now live with my family. Coach. HR professional. Writer. Someone who believes you cannot delegate your happiness.
If you are new here, these four posts will tell you what this space is about:
- My life in colorism: on naming the things most people leave unnamed
- Your prescription is wrong: on finding the insight hiding inside ordinary frustration
- First coffee, then relationships: on the morning my husband said he wanted someone who believed in him the way I believe in coffee
- Growth is not always upward: on what alignment actually looks like in practice
Look around.
