Idea:
I am writing a book, 50 JOBS IN 50 WEEKS, MY MID LIFE, MID CAREER, MID CYCLE MAKEOVER. It’s a real life account of an adventurous woman, me, putting myself out there and contracting and working 50 different jobs in approximately 50 weeks time. The point is to create a funny and informative inside sneak peak of what it’s really like to work in places you may or may not have considered as a mid-life career direction. From fire fighting to doggie day care, this book will prove to be a LOL chronicle exposing details from corporate hi jinx, to scooping poop. It will examine and compare different work environments, the people, what’s in the fridge, and other must knows.
Why?:
In a time of economic descent, and a not so stellar job front, let’s be realistic, there are a lot of people who have been recently laid off and are wondering what their next steps will be. Too early and unrealistic to retire, many mid-life women not only need to, but seek to reinvent, retool and reinvigorate themselves in order to make it all work, and also find where they fit in.
