Is your career path linear or nonlinear? Some people have careers that follow a straight line—each job is just a step toward a better role. For others, the path twists and turns, taking unexpected detours. As the world changes, so are career paths. There are a lot more people doing side gigs and starting small businesses. My own career path has been anything but traditional. I skipped college to run a pizza franchise and when that didn’t work out, I taught myself SEO. That led to a combination of side gigs, businesses, and now a more traditional career. My struggles with addiction made this journey more difficult but also taught me invaluable skills that I use everyday. How has your career path shaped you? Has it been a straightforward journey, or has it taken a few unexpected turns along the way? What lessons have you learned?

Your story really shows the strength that comes from adapting and persevering through challenges. Skipping college, running a pizza franchise, teaching yourself SEO, and facing addiction—each of those steps has added layers to your journey and skills that can’t be learned in a classroom. It’s inspiring how you turned those experiences into growth. For me, my path has had its share of twists too. Every turn has taught me something, often in ways I didn’t expect. The best part? Realizing that every experience, no matter how different, shapes us and builds resilience. Thanks for sharing your journey—it’s motivating!
