She worked hard to improve her skills, including English, and she utilized LinkedIn to network with many fantastic business leaders in her career and ultimately landed a job with a great company. In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Sibel had another opportunity to share a message of hope and kindness, this time on LinkedIn. So many were impacted negatively by the pandemic, and Sibel decided to post quotes about hope and kindness. The lessons learned from her childhood reminded Sibel that we cannot always choose our circumstances, but we can choose how to act in them and wanted to share that message and started writing daily quotes about kindness on LinkedIn. The response was overwhelming and confirmed that so many need a kind word to get through their day, and Sibel is happy to be one of many who share that message. After many months of writing, she decided to publish a collection of these quotes in her debut book, \"Chasing Kindness Against the Wind,\" a collection of positive and motivational quotes. The title was inspired by her belief that choosing and pursuing kindness is not an easy task. As Sibel puts it; \"We live in a fast world, and it's easy to get tired and discouraged, and I believe we can all use a little help each day to stay motivated and remind ourselves that the real value in life is the connections we make and the lives we change.\" Today, Sibel is raising two high school-aged children with her husband while focusing on her profession in procurement and continues to advocate for kindness in life and the workplace on LinkedIn.
