    Eulogy for Jessica HarveyLadies and gentlemen, family and friends,Today, we gather to remember and celebrate the life of Jessica Harvey, a woman whose journey was marked by profound challenges and triumphs. Jessica was a force of nature—resilient, compassionate, and deeply committed to making the world a better place, particularly in the realm of healthcare.Jessica's life was a testament to the power of perseverance. From her early years living with epilepsy to the life-altering surgery she underwent at the age of 17, she faced immense obstacles with a courage that was nothing short of inspiring. But it wasn't just her personal struggles that defined her—it was the way she used those experiences to advocate for others that truly set her apart.In her own words, Jessica believed that our souls' journeys are complex and unique, shaped by the challenges we are capable of enduring. This belief guided her throughout her life, particularly in her mission to improve the way healthcare personnel care for their patients. Jessica understood, firsthand, the gaps in the system—the moments where empathy, understanding, and comprehensive care were lacking. Her experience fueled her passion for change, and she became a powerful voice for patients, urging healthcare providers to see beyond the diagnosis and to care for the whole person.Jessica's work in the field of ESG-focused finance was driven by the same values that guided her personal life. She was committed to sustainability, not just in terms of the environment, but in terms of human dignity and well-being. She believed that true healthcare means treating patients with the compassion and respect they deserve, and she dedicated herself to this cause through her advocacy, her volunteer work, and her role in mentoring others.Her involvement in the “Rebel with a Cause” anthology was a natural extension of her life's mission. Jessica wanted to shine a light on the crucial need for healthcare reform—specifically, the need for healthcare personnel to take better care of their patients. She understood that healthcare is not just about curing illness, but about caring for the person behind the illness, understanding their fears, their hopes, and their unique journeys.Jessica's life was one of service—to her profession, to her community, and to all those who needed a voice. She was a proud neurodivergent, epileptic brain tumor survivor who used her experiences to help others struggling with similar conditions. Her dedication to improving patient care will continue to inspire those who knew her and those who read her work.As we remember Jessica today, let us honor her legacy by continuing the fight she was so passionate about. Let us advocate for a healthcare system that truly cares for its patients, one that recognizes the value of empathy, compassion, and understanding. Jessica's strength, her resilience, and her commitment to others will live on in all of us who continue to carry her message forward.Rest in peace, Jessica. Your legacy of compassion and commitment to better patient care will never be forgotten.

    Kinga-Curiosity Didn't Kill This CatThe chapter delves into the author's struggles with identity and belonging stemming from cultural and linguistic differences as a child of immigrant parents. Despite excelling academically, she felt excluded and pressured to conform to societal expectations, leading to a sense of impostor syndrome.It highlights the conflict between the author's passion for human connection and societal pressures to pursue a traditional engineering career like her father. Despite her success in the tech industry, she faced backlash for her direct approach and struggled to navigate internal politics, feeling alienated and misunderstood.Ultimately, the chapter emphasizes the importance of embracing individuality, fostering inclusive communities, and being unconventionally curious to overcome adversity and thrive. The author advocates for self-acceptance, celebrating uniqueness, and empowering others to create a life of purpose and belonging, regardless of societal norms.Here is Kinga's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kingavajda/Here is my LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/levelupbydoc/https://a.co/d/eKE0CyO

    Social media marketing has become an integral part of many businesses' marketing strategies. However, in a world where people are constantly bombarded with ads and sponsored content, authenticity has become a crucial factor in the success of social media marketing. Authenticity refers to the degree to which a brand's content on social media aligns with its values, mission, and purpose. It means being honest and transparent in your communication with your audience and building a relationship of trust. To achieve authenticity in social media marketing, brands need to focus on creating content that is genuine and relatable. This means avoiding overly promotional content and instead, sharing content that is informative, helpful, and entertaining. Brands can also leverage user-generated content, which is an effective way of showcasing the authenticity of their brand. Ultimately, authenticity is essential for building a loyal following on social media. By being authentic, brands can connect with their audience on a deeper level, which can lead to increased engagement, brand loyalty, and ultimately, sales.
