Fearless Focus teaches lessons that last well beyond the classroom. Katelyn DiFabio, a former student and instructor, shares how the program gave her the confidence and skills to excel in college, work, and life.
My name is Katelyn DiFabio and I joined Fearless Focus when I was in middle school and left when I graduated high school. I was a student from 2014-2016 and an instructor from 2017-2019. Fashion focus taught me many things as a young girl that I have used over the years.
First, I learned how to dress for success. Maria always taught us the importance of being dressed appropriately for the occasion. I attended college at a business school, so we had formal presentations all the time. Even as a freshman attending my first presentation, I knew the importance of dressing appropriately. Over the years there have been numerous times the dress code is not specified, and I always would remember that it is better to be dressed more professionally than more casually. In every scenario, you will be treated with more respect and be taken more seriously.
Another lesson that I still use today is the importance of poise, posture, and confidence. When giving a presentation or attending a meeting at work people will notice the way you carry yourself. It often is their first impression of you. Having good posture, carrying yourself with elegance and grace, and being put together will always have a positive impact on someone’s impression of you.
Lastly, I have always been very hard-working and driven, but I learned about passion in a job, organizational skills, event planning, and the importance of social media working at Fearless Focus at a young age. I truly loved getting to be an instructor and teaching young girls all the valuable lessons I learned as a student. This taught me how important it is to love your job because then it doesn’t feel like work. I learned organizational skills when working with Maria on the back-end parts of running a business and planning events. I studied marketing in college and now have had three internships all where I have learned every aspect of marketing and the importance social media plays in a company’s growth. However, my first social media job was posting on Fearless Focus’ Instagram. I was in charge of keeping the followers up to date on what we were doing in class that week and any fun activities we had going on. Having these experiences at a young age set me up for success and I am very grateful for them.
Thanks,
Katelyn
