7 Work-From-Home Job Opportunities You Can Apply for Now!
I’m currently writing this article from an airplane. It feels quite surreal given it’s the first time I’ve flown in a long, long time. I was fortunate to get vaccinated this month and finally have the opportunity to travel with my family. So here I am, on a plane in the middle of the sky, writing my twelfth remote jobs article for The Mighty.
It’s been just over one year since I began writing these articles. Looking back, so much has happened in this past year yet at the same time, it’s as though nothing has changed at all. When I submitted my very first article, I wasn’t wearing a mask. Nobody was. The symbolic piece of that is that I was finally feeling free, nine months after getting my PICC line removed.
Then came the mask, the isolation, the fear, the loss of freedom. All of these are things I’ve dealt with — survived. But this time it felt different. I had lived, survived and thrived with a chronic condition for years. Why was I so terrified?
One piece of me that never went away during my battle with chronic Lyme was my desire to be with my friends and loved ones. While I know this is not the case for many people living with long-term illness, I hated being alone. Being around my loved ones energized me, motivated me, pushed me to heal.
The past year has been incredibly isolating. So today I am celebrating the fact that I am safely traveling with my fully vaccinated family. While my mask is still on, my heart is wide open.
If you are new to these monthly articles, my name is Hannah Olson and I’m the founder of Chronically Capable, a digital talent marketplace and community that connects chronically ill and disabled jobseekers to inclusive employers. We have always believed in the importance of creating space for the chronically ill and disabled to work and excel at their jobs without feeling like they have to sacrifice their health. Now, we’re working on getting employers across the globe to join us in actively supporting our community!

Hey, I’m Hannah. I have a chronic illness but I’m not letting it stop me. I'm a Lyme survivor with deep roots in the chronic illness community. As a global ambassador for InvisiYouth Charity, a National Lyme Ambassador, and a frequent panelist for diversity and inclusion events, I have a strong platform that spreads awareness around workplace diversity and inclusion. After graduating Magna Cum Laude from Boston University, I worked at a top tier design firm where I learned how to expertly craft a brand, and then I built my own. Using the skills I gained while studying hospitality at BU, I grew that brand into a business. I took a personal setback in my life and turned it into a viable business opportunity in creating Chronically Capable, a platform that strives to connect the chronically ill with meaningful, flexible work opportunities. I encourage anyone to reach out to me: to share their story, to collaborate, or to join me in making the world a more accommodating place where people don’t have to choose between their health and their passions.
