Thursday, April 17, 6pm - 7:30pm EST
Résumé vs. Reality is a candid, supportive virtual session for professionals navigating the tough space between who they are on paper and what they're doing to survive. Whether you're in between roles, underemployed, or grappling with a title or pay cut, this space is for you.
We’ll explore:
The truth about social status anxiety
How to manage the emotional weight of taking a step down
Ways to reframe your narrative without shame
Practical mindset shifts to preserve your confidence and clarity
How to maintain your professional identity when the prestige is gone
This is not about climbing the ladder faster.
This is about staying grounded when you feel knocked off of it.
Pay-what-you-can. Come as you are. You're not less—you’re just in a plot twist. And you're not alone.
