Hey Reader, "Job" and "career" may technically be synonyms, but they aren't the same thing. Admittedly, as an English major, I'm picky about this... but whatever your major was, you can probably agree that there's a difference between a job and a career.

For more on the nuance, check out my latest blog post, Job and career: What's the...

Hi Reader, Have you ever thought you hated something, only to realize it was all in the details? In corporate, I thought I hated client calls.

Excited to share this with the world! Yeah, right. So... why did I become a coach, where my literal offer is, in essence, a client call? Especially as an...

It only took 5 months for someone to tell me π Well, lesson learned. As a solopreneur, I've been able to embrace mistakes in a way I never...
