#EmbraceTheSlash: Succeeding professionally at this, that AND the other

Some of us pursue several professions simultaneously.  We have a 'side gig' or hobby that we devote time and energy to - aside from our primary occupation.

You've met them. The history teacher who plays in a band. The executive/avid scuba diver. The techie by day/world traveler/pianist. This show is about "embracing the slash". We were inspired by this article by Jessica Stillman. http://tinyurl.com/m8w32f8 … and this one by Kate Hamill http://tinyurl.com/n4azj6a

Trina and Tamarra are both career coaches who also have 9-5 jobs. We want to dig into this & encourage others with multiple interests to join this robust discussion. How would you describe yourself using slashes?  Here are ours:

Trina: career coach/radio host/ fundraiser/writer/"pink warrior" (breast cancer awareness advocate) (trinaramsey.com)Tamarra: Career coach/radio host/mentor & motivational speaker/active Sorority member ([email protected])
