When did you know?

When did you know that is was time to love yourself, despite your illness?
For me, it was when I realized that my illnesses were likely to be with me for the remainder of my life and so I had to make a choice, it was either hate myself forever or try and learn to love myself. That was just 5 or so years ago. I’m glad I did. Now I can shout, I love me!

Where do you go to access mentors? #Mentoring

I work with the National Disability Mentoring Coalition and we are partnering with 70 disability mentoring organizations along with 'mainstream' mentoring programs in communities across the USA. As we all create better and more inclusive models we would love your inputs and recommendations --- how do you access mentors now and what would you prefer was available to help with education, transition, employment, careers and community inclusion?  #Education  #Career  #Employment

I am almost 30, I have Autism, and I need a career mentor

My career search is like being in the middle of a complicated trail without a map or directions. I have no idea how people navigate this. I am unable to drive so I want to work virtually I want to be a virtual bookkeeper. When I am job searching I am always finding jobs that require work experience which gives me anxiety because I have no work experience. I am only getting older and I am so afraid that I am going to miss the "career train". I am fearful of being penniless without any retirement savings. I want to be happy and a part time gig would be enough for me. I am painting on the side because it is my other passion in life. I have always dreamed of meeting someone who is willing to teach me the ins and outs of virtual bookkeeping and helping me find the right place to work. I have been a part of VR for quite some time but sadly they are struggling to find me a virtual bookkeeper job because they keep running into the same snags as me, which is the required work experience. #Poor #moneytroubled #Autism #AspergersSyndrome #Anxiety #Career #JobSearch #Job #money #Mentoring #help #Career

Mentorship

I love what I do! And, my mentees understand when it’s not a good day. We are partners in tackling life one day at a time, one goal at a time, one challenge at a time. #ChronicIllness #Anxiety #Selfesteem #Selfconfidence #Peersupport #Mentoring
