    Your Ultimate Guide to Help Choose Your Career Path

    October 31, 2020 / No Comments

    Growing up, I was told to choose a career that will make me happy in life instead of one that will make me money. Although I don’t disagree with this career path, I think it needs to be said with caution especially if you’re a creative type, like myself. You have to look at a bigger picture when you choose your career path. One thing I have learned as an adult is no one can teach you to be creative. If you are a painter, you are a painter. If you are an actor, you are an actor. Taking classes to better your craft is always a good idea, but…

    Top 10 Easy Ways to Grow Your Career

    August 21, 2018 / No Comments

    When I was little, I used to envision myself as the boss of an office space. Never a specific office–like Nabisco or anything–but always somewhere in a successful role at the office. And I secretly still hoped that I’d get to be a top dog at an office when I graduated college. But I learned quickly that you have to grow your career before you can step into a leadership role. I know that waiting something like 10 or 15 years, sounds like forever when you’re 22. But what I’m realizing now that I’m in the “real” world, is that there’s still a lot to learn. People won’t let you…

    The Most Impactful Ways to Advance Your Career

    July 17, 2018 / No Comments

    We all want to move forward in life (Maybe that’s an over-generalization, but I hope you do!). And it’d be great if that could happen quickly. I recently learned three impactful ways to advance your career that I will share with you. Before I do that though, I need to make sure you know what it is you want. There’s no way to succeed unless you know what it is you’re supposed to be succeeding at. Make sure you are specific on your career goals BEFORE learning how to advance your career–if you’re really clueless, use these tips to advance yourself as a human and maybe your goals will come…

    I’ve said for a looong time that I want to be a writer. However, if you looked at my old routine, it didn’t look like I took my side hustle dreams seriously. I wrote right before critiques, and I sent manuscripts periodically through the year. Other times, my nights were filled with Netflix or hanging out with my boyfriend. For over a year, my writing could be viewed as a HOBBY! Not what I said I wanted, which is to make this a full-time career as a writer. Sometimes we have to swallow the truth in order to move closer to our dreams. If you’re a dreamer with a side-hustle…

    They say patience is a virtue. I say it’s a virtue I haven’t been blessed with. Especially when it comes to career patience–As I’m sure you can tell in the last 3 months worth of posts. I want so desperately to make things happen, that I will try to force it, which is NOT a good plan. And I don’t think I’m the only one lacking patience. We live in a world with Google, instant buy, quick-turnaround shipping, real-time tech, and instant satisfaction. Why should we have to wait for things to happen, when there are ways to make it happen faster? This may be what’s preventing many of us…

    Career tip: Don’t just do what makes you happy

    June 28, 2018 / No Comments

    Listening to podcast, I started thinking more about a common question we ask young people. When we’re graduating high school, people start asking “What are you going to do now?”. This is normally followed by the advice of “do what makes you happy”. This advice is why I studied fashion design in college. Like a WHOLE DEGREE in fashion design all because drawing clothes and coming up with fashion pieces made me happy. I assumed that this would be my life after graduation: I’d sit with a sketchbook, come up with awesome fashion pieces that people would love, then other people that were not me would make them. Not once…

    5 Steps to Help You Find Your Purpose in Life

    October 30, 2017 / 2 Comments

    I have read so many books about how to find your purpose, especially during my quarter life crisis. I believe every person was put on this earth for a reason. We just have to find that reason. Some people believe that finding your purpose means figuring out how to make a lot of money. That’s not always the case, because some people aren’t driven by material means and we all have different ideas about what defines “a lot” of money. Having a passion and something you love waking up every day to do is what finding your purpose is about. Here are five steps to help you find your purpose: 5…

    When I turned 18, I thought I had everything figured out. I knew what school I was going to, what major I was going to focus my studies on, and eventually what job I was going to get. In hindsight, I wish someone would’ve taught me how to choose the right career after high school. At 18 you are faced with one of the hardest decisions of your life: deciding what you’re going to do with the rest of it after high school. This is a daunting request that can cause you to feel overwhelmed and lost trying to pick only one thing to do for the rest of your…
