Job Search!

@FearofUnknown
Thank you so much, I appreciate it. I really hope so too, fingers crossed!
I'll keep you updated. I hope you are doing alright, been thinking of you and your journey. 😊

Fingers crossed @SaltwaterSoul !

If this is the job for you, then you'll get it.

If not, then it's okay to let it go.

Even from your posts, I can see your confidence increasing. Thank you for trusting us with your journey. That's so powerful.

I couldn’t wait to share this, I got an offer of employment today, on my birthday! Honestly, exactly what I wished most for… what are the odds?😮

I accepted the offer, I got the job(!!!) I still can’t quite believe it, it feels unreal. It will probably take a few days to truly sink in. Right now I just feel so happy. I know I’ll probably feel super nervous and terrified when I start, but one day at a time. For now, I’m just feeling very grateful and ready to explore this next chapter.😊 I don't know what day I'll start, I have to fill out some paperwork and then do a online module in something, I suppose some sort of training, and then after that I'll be scheduled in for induction, and then after that I'll start working. 👍 One day at the time... puh😄

Sounds like you had a pretty full on but fun time off. I think the reason I felt so confident this time is because I’ve been through a few interviews now, and I’ve had the chance to practise the questions I usually get stuck on.

Regarding wanting to protect myself, I definitely think it’s partly self-protection. I don’t want to repeat the same mistakes or find myself in a miserable situation again, so my mind tends to analyse everything, sometimes a bit too much. But I guess, it’s all part of the process.

I hope you had a Happy Easter as well.😊

Hello @SaltwaterSoul! How are you? 🥰

This is such a great reflection! And that's exactly it, right? The more exposure we have to navigating a certain situation, the more confidence we feel approaching it again.

I think the fact you have learned from previous experiences and that you know more about what you do and don't want suggests that things can absolutely be different this time around (even if there are a few speedbumps along the way!). I am sensing the theme of your job search/work life is around 'cultivating self-trust through new experiences'? What are your thoughts on this? ☺️

Edit! I just read your most recent post - whooo! SOOO proud of you! What an amazing day to celebrate you, your efforts, and your growth. Happy Belated Birthday, lovely. Here's to your year of self-reflection and many more years of joy and exploration to come. 🥂🫶

Oh wow!! So cool. @Ruby26

I am doing some theatre projects at the moment too. 🤩

What is the vibe of the show you are doing (without sharing too much, of course)? And what are you enjoying most about the creative/production process?

I always enjoy getting to connect with everyone and support them as best as I can. I am studying as well, so always learning and growing.

What else has been going on for you? ✨

@AuntGlow

Haha yeah, I tagged a quite few people as I just wanted to thank you all for being there on my journey.
Thank you as well, I really appreciate it. You are so kind! 💙

I’m feeling a bit nervous since getting the job. I’ve filled out the paperwork and did the online induction today, and now I’m just waiting to be scheduled for the on-site induction. Yesterday I felt a bit panicked, but I know there were other things going on in the background that contributed to that. I’m going to try to take things day by day, it’s a mindset that I feel works for me, even though at times like yesterday anxiety takes over and it just feels impossible. But I am ready, just scared of starting something new now when it's finally here. Like I spent months waiting for this, and now I just feel like chaos but I am hoping it's going to settle once I get there, and I get to meet everyone, and get shown what to do. 😊

@SaltwaterSoul thanks, this particular show I've been in since February and performances are in July.

How is everything going for you with the job search now?

@SaltwaterSoul whooooo! I'm so happy to hear that!!!!!!! You made my day. Congratulations, hope the job is wonderful- you deserve the best 😄

@AuntGlow

Thanks. It's a very high energy show, lots of dancing and singing. I enjoy the people, the theatre company is very inclusive with a lot of love and empathy in the room.

My life is mostly practicing and rehearsals right now, place meditation, exercise and support groups.

What is the vibe of your theatre project? What are you studying? How is everything else going for you?
