"Thyroid Cancer Awareness: Why Professionals Should Prioritize Their Health & PTO"

In this special episode of Jess Get Hired, I’m opening up about something deeply personal—my recent diagnosis of papillary thyroid carcinoma, a type of thyroid cancer. As Thyroid Cancer Awareness Month comes to a close, I want to share my journey and talk about how important it is for busy professionals to take time for their health.

So often, we overlook small signs and symptoms, writing them off as stress or simply getting older. But my story is a reminder that even minor changes in your body can be signals of something more serious. In this episode, I talk about my experience, why we need to prioritize our health, and why taking PTO without guilt is so important.

Take action today by scheduling that overdue checkup, performing a neck check, and making your health a priority. Don’t wait for something to go wrong—listen to your body and make time for yourself.

I also want to give a quick shoutout to Magic Mind, which has been an essential part of my routine lately. With everything going on, it's helped me stay focused and energized. Magic Mind is a mental performance shot made with nootropics and adaptogens, which helps me manage stress and maintain steady energy without crashing.

In this episode of Jess Get Hired, we dive into the transformative power of mentorship with Chris Wilson, an entrepreneur, TEDx speaker, and founder of the Mentee community. Chris shares how mentorship has played a pivotal role in his career, from his early days as a commercial helicopter pilot to becoming a successful business owner. We discuss the benefits of having the right mentor, how to find one, and the importance of surrounding yourself with the right community.

"I thought I could do it all myself, but I realized success is a team effort."

"The right mentor unlocks a level you can't reach on your own—faster and more effectively."

"If you're putting yourself out there, you're bound to find like-minded people that are where you want to go."
