Today I'm dropping a bonus episode!! I want to share with you all where I have been mentally now that I have found out that I am a Baby Mamma. There has been a lot of drama in my head and want to share and how all the "left" turn life events that have happened to me have helped somewhat prepare for this upcoming journey as a mother.

I don't think I will ever feel ready and that is OK! This uneasy or "not ready" feeling has felt very familiar in many of previous life events and today I want to share with you the questions I have been asking myself during this time of transition.

Hope you can resonate with these self-reflective questions and help you wherever you are in your journey of life!

In this episode, I give you some quick tips to refreshing your resume! Often I get asked when should I be applying to jobs? My answer is there is never a "best" time, but you can't do it without an updated resume.

Refreshing your resume doesn't have to be a crazy long process. If you stay on top of all your accomplishments and take time to reflect on where you're at, you'll find it a lot easier than you think.

So girl, grab your resume, listen to this episode and find the action words that describe the amazing successes you have achieved in this past year! Good thing is you can put this episode on whenever you're ready.

Dhruvi is in her last year of grad school as a MPH candidate at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia and already secured a full time benefitted position before even graduating!! In today's episode we talk about:

• How to fully leverage all entry level experiences
• What to do when you don't have the right mentor
• Healthcare Quality and Patient Safety as a Public Health concentration
• Navigating decision making on landing very quick job offers
• AND how Dhruvi's passion for influencing beauty and fashion fills her cup in making a difference no matter how small it is

You can reach Dhruvi @dhruvii_s on Instagram where she shares all the goodness, positivity and tips, with a south Asian flair. She look forwards to connecting with you!

Are you feeling like you want to level up in your career and it's just not happening fast enough? Well today I deep dive into the "Three E's." Education, Experience & Exposure.

What do each of these means and what questions you can ask yourself to assess which "E" you might consider honing in on.

From this, I hope you find more confidence with where you are at in your healthcare career and know that where you are is where you are meant to be, BUT won't be there forever!
