Writer Beware: Save Yourself from Exploitation by Remembering your “Why?”
What made you want to be a writer? Was it the idea of fame and fortune? Did you feel you had a unique story to tell? Were you curious and loved to share newly found knowledge? Or were you someone like me who wanted to help other people struggling with addiction and mental illness?

5 Lessons My First Job Taught Me
At the beginning of February 2020, I started my first real job ever at Oxfam Novib (the Dutch affiliate of the international Oxfam organization). I have always wanted to work for an NGO (non-governmental organization) so this job was perfect to kickstart my career. I was offered a Marketing & Communication internship there from February to June.

Stop Trying To Make A Living On Vocal

The Definition Of Me
How do you define yourself? It’s one of the most difficult things you can do… There is this idea that a person can be defined by a singular moment in their life, that there was a challenge that they faced in which their entire character was on display for at least one other person. But life is so much more than just a single defining moment. From the most-photographed Hollywood celebrity to the homeless man sleeping on the streets of Los Angeles; from the President of the United States to the CNC machine operator on night shift in a manufacturing plant. We have all faced adversity on numerous occasions that have challenged us in different ways. Just as we are more than the sum of our parts, the definition of who we are is more than just a singular moment in time. We are multi-faceted, and so are our life-defining moments.
