• I used to let other people speak for me.
  • When I did speak, no one listened.
  • So now, I need to know...
  • I have a voice.

Finished school (MA in CMHC). Applying for jobs. Lots of interviews, no acceptable offers yet. This is the thing that I really hate about the job application process-- I feel evaluated, and left wanting, on a regular basis. And I feel like the evaluation is based on factors that I can not possibly predict, and even if I could, I have this total horror of being inauthentic, so I wouldn't be able to pretend to be something other than what I am, which is, realistically, pretty inexperienced in this whole counseling thing. I feel like time has been rushing, rushing, rushing, and I've been drawn along with the current. All of a sudden, the rushing has stopped and I'm left blinking on the shore, unsure about what I need to do next.
