OPPORTUNITIES
When I got laid off 4 months ago, I went into panic mode and became a Stella & Dot Stylist in order to earn some extra money while I figured out my next move. It turns out Stella & Dot is an amazing company that has become a fun and lucrative side hustle for me. It’s also pretty darn fun earning free designer-quality, celebrity-coveted jewelry for my hostesses and myself. If you’re in transition or just looking for something fun to do outside of work, I’d love to talk to you about how to make some loot! Email me at nicole@mscareergirl.com or call me anytime at 630.988.9800.
BOOKS WORTH READING
The Paris Wife is a story written from the perspective of Ernest Hemmingway’s first wife Hadley. It takes place in the morals-challenged era of 1920’s Paris. I just read this for my book club and was totally hooked. The book makes you examine your role as a career women, friend, woman and significant other.
French Women Don’t Sleep Alone is a fun and easy read about the mystery, elegance and intrigue of French women. It talks about how French women incorporate their femininity, beauty and search for love in everything they do. There is also a lot of comparison between how French women date and how American women date. I found the differences to be quite interesting (for example online dating is huge in America where dating co-workers and family friends is huge in France). If you’ve read this book, I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments section!
