Empower, Elevate, and Evolve
Welcome to my blog!
This is our time to move. This is our time to grow. This is the time to be the most badass version of yourself.
Let’s dig a little deeper and learn together.
The Only Daughter Experience: Quiet Power, Complex Roots
Being the only daughter isn't just a family role—it's an experience that leaves a lasting imprint. Without siblings to share the spotlight—or the pressure—only daughters often become the emotional center of their families. Sometimes they're praised for their maturity, sometimes weighed down by it. Over the years, I've worked with many women who grew up as only daughters, and I've also had the privilege of raising one myself. In my journey as a parent of an only daughter, I continuously work to show up as the mom she needs now, adapting and growing alongside her.
Narcissistic Origins: Professional and Personal Echoes for The Eldest Daughter
Growing up as the eldest daughter in a narcissistic family system often means carrying invisible burdens that shape your entire life. From a young age, you learn to navigate a world where your parents’ emotional needs take precedence, and your role is to anticipate, manage, and mitigate their reactions. For many of us, this meant being held to impossible standards: excelling in areas where our parents themselves struggled, while being careful never to outshine them. The message was often clear—your success was expected, but it was also a threat.
The Power of Elimination in the Job Search: A Strategic, Focused Approach
As technology evolves, the job search process becomes more layered and time-consuming. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed, but I’m a firm believer that a more thoughtful and intentional approach makes all the difference. Rather than rushing to apply to as many positions as possible, take the time to identify opportunities that align with your values, talents, and strengths.
Don’t Hold Back—Apply for that Job!
Many job seekers hesitate to hit "submit" on a job application unless they meet every requirement. But here’s the truth: job descriptions are wish lists, not checklists! It’s time to change the narrative and focus on what makes you a unique and valuable candidate. You have strengths and experiences worth showcasing. Here’s why you should feel empowered to apply, even if you don’t meet every single qualification.
The Myth of Fake Job Postings: What Job Seekers Need to Know
Recently, there has been a surge of rumors about companies posting fake jobs, often referred to as "ghost jobs." These claims suggest that businesses are listing numerous positions they have no intention of filling. While some aspects of these rumors are based on real practices, the reality is more nuanced. This article aims to clarify these misconceptions and provide job seekers with a clearer understanding of what is happening in the job market.
Understanding Current Resume Submissions and Interview Response Rates
One common concern I hear from clients is the anxiety that arises when they don't receive feedback or interview invitations within the first few days of their active job search. It's important to understand that the job search process can vary widely in terms of timelines and response rates. This article aims to provide a clear breakdown of what you can expect in terms of resume submissions and interview invitations over different periods, and how factors like budgets, holidays, targeted applications, and the use of Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) can influence these outcomes.
Navigating the Ethical Use of AI in Resume Writing
While it is a great brainstorming tool, there is only one you. AI does not have the capabilities to pull out your specific accomplishments. Your resume is your personal brand.
Healthy Work Culture: Flexibility & Autonomy
Embracing a company culture that values flexibility and results, and acknowledges that employees are responsible adults, will lead to a happier work culture.
