Starting from Where You Actually Are
Your Employment Story
What you'll learn
- →Write your real employment story — gaps, terminations, records, transitions — without shame and without spin.
- →Identify the one piece of your story that scares you most to tell.
- →Understand why naming your reality is the foundation for everything else in the course.
Proof task
Don't just watch. Do.
On a sheet of paper, write your employment timeline. Include every job, every gap, every reason. Write it like you're writing it for yourself, not an employer. The exercise is private. The point is to stop hiding from your own story.
