Educator Makes it Big - But Forgets One Important Thing.

📣 Calling All Educator Retirees: Superintendents, Principals, Teachers & Higher Ed Professionals Exploring What’s Next

As many of you boldly step into a new phase of your life or career, I hope this message finds you pausing — just for a moment — to breathe, reflect, and celebrate how far you’ve come.

Because here's what I forgot to do:

👉🏽 I forgot to pause and honor my journey.

After YEARS of doing the work...After long nights, hard decisions, setbacks, breakthroughs, and answered prayers...

I still didn’t pause.

Even after national recognition, industry accolades, and multiple awards —I still didn’t pause.

📌 Last week (based upon the time of this post), Broils Consulting Group was named one of the Top Global Consulting Firms in education and training in the world.

We were recognized alongside Deloitte, Bain, and other global giants in a newly released report by Research and Markets — one of the most trusted industry analysts in the world, relied on by Fortune 500s, government agencies, and global institutions.

🌍 This recognition spans:

• K–12 | Higher Ed | Corporate Learning | Public Sector

• 15+ countries & all continents

• A multi-billion-dollar consulting sector that’s only growing

  
  

Countries represented include:🇺🇸 USA | 🇬🇧 UK | 🇨🇦 Canada | 🇫🇷 France | 🇩🇪 Germany | 🇮🇹 Italy | 🇪🇸 Spain | 🇷🇺 Russia🇨🇳 China | 🇯🇵 Japan | 🇰🇷 South Korea | 🇮🇳 India | 🇮🇩 Indonesia | 🇦🇺 Australia | 🇧🇷 Brazil

Even after that news broke...👉🏽 I still didn’t pause.

WHAT GOD DID THROUGH ME — AND WHAT I FORGOT TO DO MYSELF.

➡️ To God be the glory — as always. 🙏🏽

(Whatever your faith or source of spiritual strength, I share this with love and respect.)There are some things that only God can orchestrate — and this was one of them.

🛑 Only after someone literally forced me to stop and reflect...

Only then did I realize:

I had NEVER given myself the credit I deserved.

I had never stopped to acknowledge myself.

For the obedience, strength, excellence, humility, resilience, integrity, and tenacity —

For walking paths that weren’t always clear.

For Walking by faith, not by sight.

👏🏽 And for the first time in YEARS,

I finally paused and said:

Well done, Shelly. (Yes, I’m talking to myself. LOL)

💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽 We’re in there, baby!

💬 And to YOU reading this:

If you're in transition... and embarking on the next phase of your career,

If you're building something bold... and feeling stretched, overlooked, or unsure of your next move... 🍎

Please Pause.

Honor the version of you who kept going…

Celebrate the steps you’ve already taken —

And the version you're still becoming.

You are both the vessel of a vision placed inside you — and the proof. The world needs what you carry.The mission is real.

And the moment is now.

❤️ Stay Safe. Stay Inspired.
