Description

Real Talk! Today, we're talking about three BIG career myths that need debunking.
First, we've all heard that career gaps can be the kiss of death when job hunting, right? Well, it's time to toss that myth out! Nowadays, employers see the value in taking a break; it's all about how you present it.
Who said success means sticking to the 8 to 5, five days a week? Time to shake things up! With the rise of project-based work, we can work smarter, not harder, allowing for more flexibility + fulfillment. So, let's prioritize meaningful achievements over the traditional grind ?
Lastly, having multiple roles in this diverse gig economy is both possible and super rewarding. No longer do we have to have ONE set path. There’s a certain freedom that comes from knowing you no longer have to follow a linear career path or work an arbitrary number of hours to achieve your goals. 
Today, the only limits on your career are the ones you impose on yourself. You’re finally free to focus on pursuing opportunities through a more HEART-based approach.
