Thank you so much for your vulnerability. I relate to this on so many levels. On so many levels. Instead of corporate I went nonprofit corporate.... it destroyed me. But here I am wanting to go back to it lol all because I believe in helping people. Damn psychology degree!

Hehe yep, I understand. Non-profit is also a business, but helping people with it is a beautiful thing ❤️

Therapy is a life saver. I only wish more people would do the work so we didn't have to deal with their sh*t day in, day out... Thanks for sharing your origin story :)

Oh yes, I feel you 😅 Interesting how we are being taught a bunch of topics in highschool which I have never used, but nothing actually useful like emotional intelligence.

Don't understand why European? women (men too) don't like cunts. I find them quite wonderful really. Except for one, but she did had the loveliest tits. There was another, but only in my imagination. Someone I was stuck working in a cubicle with, in New Orleans, who never bathed. Let's call her Smelly Shelly. Loved this piece tho. I had a similarly wretched experience with a corporate job, but I did get to travel to NYC on a Learjet once. Love the crossed out stuff. The stuff you'd like to forget but honestly cannot. Cheers and thanks 💚🍆🫒🍌

"I do like working with people, and I also like making a difference." no shame in that! Some people can work for money just like some people can marry for money. I recently turned down a position for double my pay ON MORAL GROUNDS. did you hear that? I thought I was a cool witch, I thought I was a rebel! I moved to Australia alone and I said no to a job because I have VALUES. yuck. we need a support group. my 16yo self would be ashamed of me.

You teach what you know. I know it seems like everyone is a coach but I have set up coaching for a specific niche - high functioning adults on the spectrum; specifically women and donor especially for those late diagnosed because I am that. And I’m still standing after trauma and then therapy. The best support and inspiration comes from a place of authenticity and what could be more profound and authentic than having lived through it?

Hahah I adore Ace Ventura movies, they make me laugh every time 😂 And yes, that's usually what I do with clients who are looking for a new career. We already have all the puzzle pieces, we just need to piece them together!
