Question by Amy, Field Marketing Manager
asked on 2022-01-12

For most of my life, I have worked at Gig jobs, now that I am older, I would like to find something that I could really enjoy and feel like I have a purpose, as well as finding a way to grow old with dignity. I have had a lot of diverse experience, having come to NYC as an actress/dancer/singer turned author, turned Brand Ambassador and then I co-developed a Fitness App, I have worn many hats, have never been in the box, and now as some of my best laid plans have not come to fruition, I am looking to get into the box in order to provide for a future with dignity as an older person. My question is, "How do I construct the narrative and resume, that will show them that may experience is a plus for their business, not a minus, just because it doesn't look like most progressions that many have taken on the work journey?" I hope that's clear, just trying to see how all my experience can be put into a job that can make money. All the other things I have worked on have been passion projects and things that really excite me, but they haven't produced a lot of income. Now I would like to take all this experience, and share it with a company where I could actually make money.
