Camille Edwards on Knowing What You Don’t Know

 

As Camille Edwards knows it’s very hard for some people to admit they don’t know something. But having the confidence to be ok with not knowing something is a superpower. 

It’s Ok to NOT Know Everything

Camille Edwards was a media executive with decades of experience who decided to make a career change into real estate.

“For the first time in a long time, I didn’t know everything,” says Edwards. She says she had to teach herself how to be a student again. She had to work hard to train her brain on how to learn and think differently.  

“During my 30 years as a journalist,” says Camille Edwards, “I was used to having to make quick decisions; time was always of the essence.” 

But as she trained to be a real estate agent, Edwards had to train her brain to think differently and not have her decisions be driven by a clock. 

“I had to be ok knowing that I didn’t know everything and that it was totally ok to open and honest about it.”

Camille Edwards on Stress During the Pandemic

During this unprecedented time, it is so hard to stay positive. And as Camille Edwards knows it’s a daily struggle for everyone.

Should I Even Watch the News?

A former journalist, Edwards finds it very difficult to stay on top of current events, often because it is depressing to her. 

“If you would have told me that when I got out of media that I wouldn’t watch the news, I would have told you were crazy,” says Camille Edwards. “It’s true that I don’t watch the news like I used to. I find my friends are more up to date on what’s going on in the world more so than I am.”

It is a very strange time, and being on top of developments with the pandemic is critical. But if taking in all that information makes you depressed, what are you supposed to do?

“You can’t bury your head in the sand and act like things are ok, normal or like them used to be,” says Edwards. “But you also have to find balance in knowing what is going on and keeping yourself mentally safe.”

Edwards is a 30-year veteran journalist who’s led huge newsrooms across the country.
