The Art of the Humble Brag
So - after the third time in two weeks of hearing that I have to learn to Humble Brag - I think I’m catching on. No, I’m not bragging about the “catching on” part. Heck, I’m pretty sure I’m not actually bragging about anything here - except that maybe I surround myself with people who give me good advice such as, “Hey, Lori, you really need to embrace humble bragging.”
It goes against my upbringing. Small town Wyoming girls don’t brag about what we do. We just get up, work hard, make a difference, fall asleep, then rinse and repeat. It’s that simple. You don’t do the good work so people notice it. You do the good work because you do the good work.
However, it’s been brought to my attention that once you’ve built an impact organization that leads to significant positive transformation - you need to let people know that! You have people counting on you - donating to you - learning from you. You owe it to them to celebrate the success - because this success is also theirs! So here goes, folks! Here’s what we’re proud about:
Everybody Matters was awarded 2024 Outstanding Practicum Agency by Arizona State University.
Jessica Burns, LCSW, was awarded 2024 Practicum Supervisor Award
The intern team served OVER 1,200 students this year
The intern team provided OVER 13,000 face to face contacts with students
So yeah, all that happened. And it’s a pretty big deal. And if you’re reading this you are a part of all of this in some way - so congrats! Feel free to go out and humble brag about it!
Show up with purpose and leave feeling rewarded. By the end of the Everybody Matters AZ internship, you will feel entirely confident to enter the field. Sign up today to start your internship!
