In today’s episode, I’m getting real about the struggle of landing a job in the West Village—actually, all of NYC—when you’re on your own. Finding work here feels like a contact sport where everyone has a secret edge, and if you don’t have the right connections, you’re left hustling twice as hard just to get a foot in the door. I’ll be talking about the endless applications, the countless rejections, and how navigating New York’s job market can feel like an impossible maze.

But tomorrow, I have a big interview coming up—a spot at a company I’ve had my eye on for ages. This could be the break I’ve been waiting for, so I’m sharing all my pre-interview nerves, excitement, and, honestly, a bit of panic. Let’s dig into what it’s like to chase your career dreams in a city where everyone is running just as hard as you are.
