I’ve had a few one and two-year stints at various jobs and have found myself explaining why when I applied for other roles in the past.
I’ve often felt like it was the reason I was initially overlooked for a job, and there’s much more to me than the tenure of each role on my
If you look at this photo, you would think I was the picture of confidence and happiness.
But neither was true.
I was about to go on stage for one of the most important speaking engagements of my career. It was at the largest conference in my industry, and I was giving a presentation on
These are my puppies and my nephew and niece.
Why am I posting photos of them here? (I also posted a version of this post on LinkedIn.)

You may think you know me, but you only
In this Women Who Wow profile, get to know Ruth Morayniss, the Client Relations and Business Development Manager at Beard Winter LLP in Toronto.
I met Ruth last summer during the pandemic when I first started the Women Who Wow community. LinkedIn brought us together, and I’m very grateful for that. I was hosting weekly zoom meetings for women like me who felt isolated and needed some encouragement that we weren’t alone. We forged relationships and bonds with each other during that time, and I am especially grateful to Ruth for her candor and contributions to our community then – it’s so great to see how much we’ve all changed as there begins to be an end in sight to the pandemic.
Learn more about her in this profile.

For a long time I tried to dim my light in hopes it would make another woman at work feel more comfortable. She always questioned me and marginalized me. One day she told me there was only room for one of us.
It didn’t work. Because I couldn’t help being me. Something about me rubbed
So I did a thing the other day. I got my vaccine.
The Covid-19 pandemic has taken such a long, quiet toll on so many people throughout the globe. We have lost so much and so many. At times it has felt very bleak.
But the good news is that more and more people getting

Ali has volunteered for many organizations and is currently President-Elect for the American Marketing Association Capital Region and on the Advisory Committee for CPAmerica.
Ali and I met several years ago through the Legal Marketing Association. She was part of the Upstate NY chapter and let’s just say there weren’t many people in it so she was looking for more people to engage with and more people to bounce ideas off of especially since she was a solo marketer. We immediately hit it off, and I was so happy to be a mentor of sorts to her. We were able to finally meet in person at a local event in New York City and then spent more time together at an LMA National Conference. I’m so glad our paths crossed.

So what do you do when your to-do list is as long as a CVS receipt (this always cracks me up).
As an extrovert I miss seeing people in person every day and collaborating. Although I have found myself to be more productive while working from home despite having two very rambunctious puppies.
Here’s what
