Another week, another event or two! This week I'm off to Melbourne where Enterprising Girls will once again partner with HEX to deliver Exponential Careers Workshops to students at Toorak College, Mt Eliza and Port Melbourne Secondary College. These workshops really light me up and also find me reflecting on my own career path. It's been anything but linear and I don't ever really remember sitting down and mapping out where I wanted to be. But OH! is has been an adventure. The girl in this picture (on the night of her Year 12 graduation) had no idea what she wanted to do, but the path she ultimately took led her to some incredible places. My advice to any young person considering what to do when they finish school is this: 1. Work out what you love to do and focus on doing more of that - chances are you're probably pretty good at what you love, so play to your strengths. 2. Be curious, take the left and right turns and know you can always return to your planned path. The magic happens on the side streets! Trust me! 3. Consider everyone you meet to be a teacher. If you're open to it, people you meet by chance can sometimes change your life (or they can introduce you to someone who will). Looking back on my career to date, I can honestly say it's the moments when I've bet on myself, or took an unplanned turn, or simply said 'yes', that have provided me with far-reaching opportunities I never imagined. #careerseducation
