Hey friend. Come in and breathe.
This one’s for the girl who’s been applying, crying, praying — and still hearing silence.
For the one who looks at her resume and sees gaps, not glory.
For the woman who’s lived too much life to fit neatly into a LinkedIn box.

In this episode, I take you back to my second year of university — before the branding, before the business. I didn’t have Canadian experience. I didn’t have a referral. I didn’t even know how job placements really worked. But I had pain. I had prayer. I had preparation. And somehow… that was enough.

You’ll hear the behind-the-scenes story of how I got 3 job offers during my co-op search, what I learned about rejection, how I tailored my resume using volunteer work, and why being yourself in an interview still works. No fluff, no hacks — just real-life lessons from the girl who kept showing up.

✨ We talk:

• Volunteering as real experience
• Applying without disqualifying yourself
• Resume tips that actually help
• Interview confidence when you're still unsure
• God's favor in unexpected places

You don’t have to look perfect to be powerful.
And delay is not denial.
Hit play, and let’s talk about it.
