I studied media/journalism and PR during undergrad. I went the PR route because I was told “that’s where the money is”. 6+ Years Into PR, I established myself financially and professionally, but I absolutely hated the industry. I wanted so badly to return to journalism and narrate the stories that were underreported but mattered. After reading this, I feel even more at a loss. Is it worth pursuing this career path that sounds so unstable?
This was a very good, albeit painful read, I think across a lot of industries a lot of workers are asking similar questions, how can we find that stability, but without burning ourselves out or compromising who we are.
What Will It Take for Me to Leave?
Can’t Bernie throw y’all a bone? It’s worth the investment for continuing his legacy.
Hope there are enough paid subscribers here to help out. I’ll chip in.
Y'all should start a Patreon.
