Position / Job title?: Marketing Manager at a tech company // lifestyle blogger at DoseOfDash.com // freelance marketing and branding consultant 1. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? A child star on Broadway – my debut role would be Annie, of course. I even once complained to my parents that they weren’t stage parent-y enough. I know if I had just I found yoga 3 years ago, and my life changed in a way I never knew it could. I decided that while I was still young (and unemployed), I would become an yoga instruction. I mean, why not, right? Ever since I started the training, I have fallen more and more in love with my practice. I have never felt so passionate about anything in my life. After going to school for four years with a minimal interest in what I was studying, I often wondered what I was going to do. What was I passionate about? What was I Let me just start off by apologizing because I don’t really know where this post is going. Normally, when I sit down to write something, I have an outline of what I am going to say. However, this time I am just going to ramble because I need to get something off my chest. The question I have is: Why are we (as in gen-y girls) all so obsessed with dating (or our lack there of)? Myself included, I feel like there is this big, scary cloud hanging over my head because I am probably going to end up a I am spending the next few days in the Windy City, which is exciting for a few reasons: I am meeting with a handful of new PR firms to see if we can work together in the future. I have flown through the Chicago airport a million times, but I have never actually spent any time in the city. It is kinda cold there (well, cold relative to Texas), so I am finally getting to preview my Fall wardrobe! These mini vacays are the best part of my job because they keep my life exciting, and I love meeting new During my recent job hunting endeavors, in which I have endlessly applied to 9-5 pm jobs, I have had a revaluation. I’m not even excited about job prospects because the 9-5 position is becoming a bit outdated. Who says that I have to work for a company I don’t even care about just because it is a societal norm? After talking to a friend about my frustrations, she gave me some of the best advice I’ve gotten in awhile. Now I know I’m very fortunate to have a college degree and my parent’s support, which lets me explore my options. I feel guilty ALL the time. I could be having the best day ever, you know the days when the stars are aligned–my hair isn’t frizzy, the barista prepares my iced coffee perfectly, I land major placements for all my clients, etc.—and yet I still have this gnawing sense of guilt in the pit of my stomach. It seriously never goes away. I think it might be a hereditary Jewish guilty kind of thing If I am out having fun with my friends, I feel guilty for not being at my computer working.

Position / Job title?: Account Manager at Jobs2Careers 1. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? I never had a clear idea of what I wanted to do, but I feel like I always thought I wanted to do something “different.” I was in choir from a young age, and thought that I might do something with that. As I got older, I realized that wasn’t really possible, and I didn’t I am not going to lie I had pretty low expectations for my birthday this weekend. The past year has been so crazy busy that the big day just kinda crept up on me. Birthdays are kinda like New Years; you build everything up, and it just becomes a disappointment. I have to tell you though, despite my best efforts to be a debbie downer, my birthday kicked ass thanks to the amazing people in my life. I feel so loved and appreciated, and it honestly feels really nice. The one thing I do love about birthdays is they allow I love acquiring things cheaply. After we moved out of our college apartment, I bought a lamp at a garage sale for $5. It was a pretty sturdy looking thing, the only problem with it was the lampshade was a little icky. There was a stain on it and part of it was a little cracked and bent.
Position / Job title?: Account Executive at INK Public Relations 1. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? I’ve always loved writing and wanted to write stories when I grew up.
