** Meet our triangle members! **    **Tenesha Graham- Leader and Scribe**  graham45ten@gmail.com

  I have a passion for exploration. When I was a little girl, I wanted to become an archaeologist. Now I enjoy writing about archaeological destinations, monuments and sites as an adventure travel writer for my own website. I love researching, learning and discovering new places, people, history and culture. I like getting out and going on an adventure including trekking or my favourite scuba diving. I also have a passion for simple living. I apply this simplistic lifestyle to my home, work, travel, relationships and core values. I focus on what is important. I practice mindfulness in meditation, the way I think, observe and live life. What matters to me are family, friends, surroundings and way of life. It's as SIMPLE as that for me.
 * Passion **

My perfect job flows well with my lifestyle. It's flexible and doesn't keep me tied to one location. If and when I have to move, I don't have to change careers or do oddball jobs in order to earn. I can travel all around the world while being able to do my job. I can also work on my website, write compelling stories as well as have time to spend with my family and friends.

 * <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I will use guest posting, email marketing, paid advertising on Facebook and Instagram through social media campaigns to increase traffic to my website for 6 months.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Relationship
 * <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I will reconnect with old friends whom I hardly see by calling them twice a week.
 * <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I will begin to host monthly Sunday dinners beginning on August 2017.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">My unique talent is centered around writing but in a different way. I'm more of a storyteller. Whether I'm telling my story, somebody else’s story or a fiction. I let my surroundings, people and encounters inspire and teach me. From there, my mind begins to brainstorm a ton of ideas. Once I put a pen to a piece of paper, the story in my mind takes a life of its own. The image and scene is clear and the words begin to flow from my head to my hands onto the paper. Before I know it, I've written something good. It's been that way since I was a child. All my English teachers would photocopy my essays to use as a template for present and future students to follow. It's actually therapeutic in a sense. I can just let myself have it. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">The Enterprising Crocodile <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222; display: block; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #111111; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 16px;">Protagonist

I learn so much about myself with every challenge, new site and person I meet. I’ve traveled alone knowing no one, and I’ve traveled with friends too. When I go to a new country, it feels like there’s always a possibility of serendipity or magic. It’s like I’m in alignment with some unique force of life that can’t be explained. I cherish every bite of new food, the breath of nature and a casual conversation with a local that turns into a new relationship. I know traveling is something I’m meant to do that nourishes my spirit. My hope is that more is in store for me in the near future.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">My dream job involves making my home wherever I choose, working a flexible schedule (30-40 hours per week). I could be in places like Monterrey, California, Milan, Italy or Lima, Peru. I work in a capacity that allows me to write short stories and promotional work from my computer, as well as speak as a leader of projects, while running a podcast on the side. While my home may change from time to time, part of my dream job also allows me to step away from my computer to interact with the locals and take in nature.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Health
 * <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I will maintain my ideal weight by working out for 30 minutes, five times per week.
 * <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I will incorporate bentonite clay, collagen, probiotics and spirulina in my diet five times per week.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Business
 * <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I will prepare myself to attain a full-time remote job utilizing my writing and communication skills.
 * <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I will apply for one new job every day, five days per week until I have received the full-time remote job.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Family
 * <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I will reconnect with my grandmother and aunt by speaking to my grandmother twice per week and speaking to my aunt once per week.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">My unique talent centers on writing. I’ve always liked to journal about my life, write blog posts and newsletters, as well as website content. With my writing, I also like to add photos I’ve taken from my travels. Eventually (hopefully before the end of July) I'll start a YouTube podcast that incorporates photos and the things I’ve written about such as personal growth, health and business. Bringing my writing and voice to life is something I'm looking to do more of now.

I love the stage from performing, to costume changes, to the orchestra, to embracing the struggles of the character that I may portray, theater arts is where my heart lies. I have performed on the stage over 78 times in my life and no matter how big or small the role was, I always made sure that I made the character bigger than life. It's funny because it's so easy for me to be someone else which is easier than it is for me to be myself most of the time. I guess that's what makes performing in my humble opinion so beautiful, because it's the ability to surrender myself into a life other than my own and relive the transparent truth of that character in front an audience.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">If I had to describe the perfect job, it would be to work remotely on a white sandy beach in my chair with my laptop and virgin cocktail sitting beside me. I really love interacting with clients. I consider my top three functional work skills as calling, administrative and social media. I physically work from my home office. I don't have the luxury of not being Superwoman so my life consists of taking care of my children and paying bills. My work schedule is flexible so I can dedicate between 20 to 25 hours per week working on a project.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Health
 * <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I will increase my daily water intake by drinking 8 glasses of water per day.
 * <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I will decrease my daily intake of sweets to no more than 1-2 servings per day.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Business
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I will launch a Virtual Assistant website by my birthday October 25, 2017.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I will be promoting the business by utilizing word of mouth, email blasts and setting up my personal business page on social media.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Relationships
 * <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I will make time for my family by visiting them 2-3 times per month starting <span class="aqj" style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">August 1, 2017.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">For years I have been able to impersonate practically anybody. Doesn't sound like a unique talent, but to me it is. I say that because it was brought to my attention by other people. Without realizing it, whenever I tell a story or explain a situation that occurred between two or more people, I always went character transition mode, meaning that as I was describing the scenario and what was said, I immediately took on the personality and voice of the person and I repeated what they said. I guess that's why I thrive at live theater because that part of me (taking on other characters) has always been in my blood unknowingly.
