Farewell by Jennifer L. Washington
Beetiful designed the book cover for Farewell!: A Black Girl’s Guide to Moving Away and Moving Ahead by Jennifer L. Washington.
Synopsis
Do you dream of relocating to a city where you can thrive personally and professionally as a Black woman? Are you paralyzed by indecision or the process of planning a move? Do you feel you don’t have the coins, connections, or career skills to move to relocate? If you answered in the affirmative to all these questions, you are not alone. In this book, you will get raw and honest insights, resources, and action steps to help you overcome obstacles when leaving for and settling into a new city.
Jennifer shares meaningful mindset shifts and tips for making a move work by relaying her personal “growth experiences” and epiphanies. She explains why Black women often face additional relocation pitfalls and shares how to prepare for those challenges before, during, and after a major move. She also gives hope and inspiration, reminding readers that there is beauty in struggle and power in resilience.
When Jennifer first moved from her hometown of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, she was oblivious to how much that leap of faith would change every aspect of her life. Her marriage and friendships, faith and finances, and health and emotional well-being were all impacted beyond what she had imagined. However, that one move marked the beginning of many moves, milestones, and joys.
In this book, Jennifer draws upon her research and experiences as a multiple mover and career strategist to help readers learn how to
- Analyze their relocation readiness and resources.
- Consider cultural factors that can help or hinder a move.
- Overcome hurdles of finances, family, and fear.
- Research big and little factors to ensure an area’s “fit.”
- Engage in career and professional development.
- Grow their professional networks and build a personal brand.
Whether you’re moving away for the first time, having problems adjusting to a new location, or reeling and healing after a failed relocation attempt, Farewell!: A Black Girl’s Guide to Moving Away and Moving Ahead is a must-read for women of color who want to ensure their next move is successful.
This book will ask you to examine what relocation really entails, explore different options and avenues, and allow you to confidently proclaim: “Yep, it’s time to move!”
