One of the hazards of applying to jobs, traditionally, is that you get this as feedback when you’re great at what you do. One of the perks of the freelance path, is that you don’t. Here is a little story (true experience) of why I actually need to be freelance. I went to a one…

I started writing this post maybe five different times. Each time with a different title. The words just wouldn’t come out in a way that I thought was understandable. I still don’t know why I needed to get on here and write, just that I needed to say something. I feel like I was strong,…

I was approved for benefits! But they’re not enough…. I’m so conflicted I’m beyond grateful that I received benefits. Super beyond grateful! (For context for those of you that don’t live in the United States, receiving benefits when you are unemployed or make below a living wage is getting more and more difficult.) But I…

Walking into a place that you were taught is only for the worthless and desperate. Asking for help when you have the skills and abilities to go it alone, but the economy is tanked. What I absolutely hate though, is that good people need services like this. They can work. They want to work. They…

So much. It means so much. I am so tired of people not understanding the absolute soul deep toll it takes to raise a child. Full credit to the multiple African cultures that created this and teach this. Dealing vs Ideal Yes, you can do it on your own, but no that isn’t how it…

I struggle with staying positive. The whole psychological process of making your brain acknowledge that this moment, this hour, this day, this life, has positivity in it refuses to see it. But, I’m better at it. Despite the, sometimes, crippling anxiety I have learned how to find the “best” and make my brain accept that.…

That is the vibe. Not just today, but it has been for a while now. But today, I am going to vent about it. Millions of people around of the world are fed up with the USA’s B.S. If you have ever been in the lower economic spectrum, you know how lack of funds can…

I cannot tell you how many job opportunities I’ve lost because I didn’t speak a certain language. Not because I was lacking a degree. Over 100 this year. Gut punch, right? Granted, it gave me the kick in the butt I needed to make more progress with my language learning. It still hurts! But simple…

This isn’t political, breathe. This is in regards to an irksome observation I have had a time or two over the past year that has resulted in me needing to make significant changes to my Freelance business. I would be offended, but that would be an investment in the corporate world that I promised myself…
