It’s a new year and what better time to begin a new outlook on life or continue making progress on a journey previously began. It’s the norm nowadays. At the beginning of each year, we check in with ourselves with questions. We test our mood, our feelings, our emotional meter. I recently attended a networking group meeting of legal professionals called Deliberate Solos. Deliberate Solos is a group of Attorneys and similar professionals started in order to provide those solo and small firm professionals an opportunity to share resources, ideas and make new connections. Moving forward together in community. During the virtual meeting, questions were posed. What inspires you? What brings inspiration to keep you moving forward? What gets you out of bed and going each day?
Excellent questions now more ever. We are in our second year of pandemic, caught up in a web of anxiety, concern for ourselves, our health and wellness. Concern for family and friends and on a larger scale, there is plenty of rumbling going on in our country. With all of these issues hanging in the balance daily, what’s moving you into 2022 with a positive outlook on all that lies ahead?
My answer to the group was this:
It is my goal to inspire others through my daily work both with SM Cameron Law and Mediation, LLC and that of my personal, life-style blog and platform, Grateful Badass which houses the amazing podcast, Grateful Badass Podcast. Our law firm clients inspire us to continue our work in the areas of Estate Planning, Trademark and Copyright and Mediation/ Arbitration.
This is what we do.
It’s why we hit the ground ready to go day by day. Full transparency, the days are not always easy. There are plenty of highs and lows. Thoughts of a former client who recently moved to New York and desired to get her “End of Life” plans up to date is our inspiration. She was grateful that we were there for her and her family. Clients, such as this, make the hills and valleys all worth the while and remind me, remind our firm to just keep going.
As we march into 2022 ahead, our inspiration? Just keep going. The value of our work outweighs all else, hands down.
“Life is like riding a bicycle, to keep your balance you must keep moving.”

Here’s to a great year ahead!
