View all responses

It’s just drizzled this morning and I am listening to Reductio’s organ rendition of Hallelujah as I type this.

So, what alternative career paths have I considered or am I interested in?

1. Psychotherapy: Yes, I wanted to be a Counselor growing up- and I did my bachelor’s in Psychology and wanted to go on and study Clinical Psychology but as I got into working, I realized that I was more interested in Research and community Engagement.
2. Dance: Yes, I find dancers very holistic, like how can you listen to sound and serve it in rhythm?
3. Writing: Well, I am in this but not as fully invested as I should be to see more financial returns, I should be making more money off my written work if only I invest more in marketing- still getting there.
4. Sketch Artist: My pencil sketches suck! End of story.
5. Professor: Well, I am still on this journey but there is something about academia and the journey to having that PhD that scares me and I am like “Let me just stick to being curious and wandering the world.”

And those are the ones that I have thought of or actually tried, lately there has been one that I couldn’t shake off and it’s not a career path but more a life path- being a Founder.

What alternative career paths have you considered?
