A wonderful reminder.
https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1RCiDq4Axg/

Two meals...one burnt after an hour at 900°F, the other cooked to perfection after three hours at 300°F.
Same ingredients.
Different results.
It was such a solid reminder:
Growth isn't about rushing. It's about the right pace.
In a world that glorifies speed and hustle, we forget that some of the best things in life.... skills, success, even healing...take time.
So if your journey feels slow right now, don't stress.
You're not falling behind.
You might just be slow-cooking something exceptional.

What beautiful truth.

I have lived with a degenerative vision disease for over 30 years. My life wasn't terribly affected in the early years, but things (expectedly) started to decline little by little when I got into my late 20s.
I choose to identify as lucky in some regards. One example is that my eye disease has advanced slowly (for me it has, there are others with the very same eye disease who have not had it like that), therefore my brain and body have adapted in organic ways that aren't overtly noticeable to me unless someone points them out.
Those who know and spend any time with me will catch the tiny moments of me "not seeing." I quote that because I do have vision, it is just heavily impaired, but not impaired to the point of requiring the cane or obtaining a seeing eye dog.
I am lucky that (on the off chance I can get rides from neighbors or friends) I can function largely autonomously when out in the world.
Most days, though, I operate out of my home, and while I love my home and my work, I can tend to get tired of the same scenery after a while - just like anyone else - except I can't just hop in a car to shake things up.
So what options does this leave me with?
Nature.
It's a good thing I love it, right?
Except even going for walks can prove to be hazardous when your road is riddled with potholes.
Yep, whatever you just thought happened -did.
And yes, a strongly worded call was placed to our DPW, especially since nothing was done about this when I called nearly a year ago.
Some may say this may not be the wisest thing to post as a business owner, but I say I am here for the rest of our disabled community members who get overlooked and underserved.
I am here to remind them that Self Advocacy is the best tool you have to ensure you get to enjoy the same amenities this town has to offer as every other taxpayer.
If you don't advocate for yourself, your needs won't be known and they won't be addressed..
You deserve to take up space in this town, in this world.
I am here to help you find and/or develop your voice!

Hi, New Milford neighbors!
My name is Becky Sterling and I'm a Certified Professional Coach specializing in supporting individuals with physical disabilities.
I'm currently working to identify unmet needs in our community - especially around transportation challenges that go beyond trips to grocery stores and medical appointments.
While I ultimately plan to connect with all community members who face transportation difficulties, my initial focus is on parents with children in our public school system or who homeschool - with either parent and/or child having a physical disability.
The information gathered will help kickstart a problem-solving forum with local organizations and our local government, with the goal of creating meaningful, lasting relationships and solutions.
If you are interested in joining this conversation, please comment below, send me a private message, or email me at [email protected]
And if you know someone who fits this description but isn't on Facebook, please feel free to pass this along!
Thank you so much for your time and support - I love this town!

Hi, my name is Becky Sterling, and I wanted to let our amazing town and surrounding areas know about my new coaching business, Second Sight Coaching,LLC. I have been a New Milford resident for the past 11 years. I am a single mother of two, and was declared legally blind more than 15 years ago.

My goal is to work with women, as well as young adults, who are ready for a life transition. As a disabled citizen, my passion is to reach others who are physically disabled to help empower them, to ensure alignment of resources, and to help them achieve an independent and fulfilling life. I strongly believe that 'dreams do not die when you are disabled’. I am also keen to work with the family of disabled folks to help with deeper understanding of their loved ones’ true needs.

As a business promotion, I am happy to offer $25 sessions (limited to 3 sessions) for the first 5 clients. Let's work together to foster your personal growth.
