Six Months at Purple!!

I can hardly believe it, the amount of time seems to have passed in the blink of an eye. I simply can’t believe I’ve been working for Purple and undergoing my Junior Content Producer apprenticeship for 6 whole months - all whilst working from home nonetheless, which is something I am still figuring out. Like all things, it has its peaks and troughs.  However, I could not have asked for a better team to join with the support we all give to each other daily. 

Looking back, I remember writing in my 3rd month blog about how much I felt I had advanced in my first three months and that I was intrigued to know how much more I will have achieved during the following three months. Well here we are! And amongst all of the hard work and getting my head stuck back into learning, I forgot to stop and appreciate where I am now. I have been cramming in so much learning and really getting to grips with the processes at Purple, which is something at the 3 month point I just thought I’d never get the hang of. 

Right now feels like a very defining time for me at Purple, I am being handed more responsibility and I can either choose to shy away and postpone it or rise to the challenge. With so much reassurance and guidance from the Purple team I am constantly building on my confidence within my role which gives me that well needed push to grab onto challenges with two hands.

My cousin recently said something that really resonated with me: ‘Being out of your comfort zone can only bring good things’ and she is spot on, we can only continue to grow and if we challenge what we are already capable of.

It seems as though a lot of my hard work is paying off, as January also brought a lovely surprise for me. Every three months my apprenticeship provider, Apprentify, awards one of their apprentices ‘Apprentice of The Quarter’ and last month I had the pleasure of receiving this award! I was extremely humbled by it as I got the award due to Scarlett and my Apprentify development coach, Rebecca, singing my praises - I must be doing something right 😂

I am really looking forward to the year ahead. I am meeting and interacting with so many more lovely clients and with every new experience I am steadily finding my feet. It is a really exciting time and similarly at 3 months in, I am really curious to know what my day to day looks like at Purple in another 6 months, Positive Maisy hopes that will be in the comfort of the office - I will keep my fingers crossed 🤞

In the meantime, we may still all be working from home but of course that doesn’t stop us from being able to help all of you as much as we can. If you would like any information about getting yourself online with a new website or help with managing your social media, drop us a note and say hi 🥰
