Something You May Not Know About Me...

Friend... You probably know me as someone who talks a lot about careers, networking, and job searching—but what you might not know is that, by day, I work to support young adults who have aged out of the foster care system. At THRU Project, I help former foster youth secure stable housing so they can work, go to school, and build the foundation they need for a successful future. The transition into adulthood is tough for anyone, but for youth leaving foster care without a safety net, it can be overwhelming. Our program exists to bridge that gap, providing mentorship, resources, and support to ensure they don’t have to navigate it alone. I recently had the opportunity to talk about this work as a guest on Beyond Silence! In this episode, we dive into: If you’ve ever been curious about the realities of foster care or how to make a difference, I’d love for you to listen. You can check out the episode here:

Friend... Let me say this gently but directly: if you’re still telling employers you're a “hard worker,” it’s time to retire that phrase. Not because it’s not true—but because everyone says that. Saying you're a hard worker is like saying water is wet. It's expected. It's assumed. And while I believe you are someone who gets the job done, you’ve got to find a better way to prove it—especially if you're actively job searching or looking for that next big step. Let’s break this down. ❌ Why...
Friend... If you’ve been told, “You need a mentor!” That’s only half the story. Mentors are helpful. They’ll give advice, offer feedback, and tell you about their journey.But if you’re serious about moving up, getting leadership opportunities, or being considered for high-visibility projects, you don’t just need advice. You need a sponsor, someone with influence who will speak your name when you're not in the room. The good news?You don’t have to awkwardly ask someone to "sponsor" you. You...
