Hi Viv, I was looking into being a counselor of some type, but when I've done the research I just dont get excited about studying it.
I went to school in a far away state that was a teacher college.
Im leaning on taking a few business classes at a community college to see if this something I may want to pursue before I plunge into a costly MBA program. I love everything about business and have a few years invested in a failed online based business. I had creative success, but couldn't get the proper traction.
I meet with a therapist and will be talking about this tomorrow.
As of now my plan is to take my recovery very serious as I was doxed ten years ago and never took the process 100% seriously besides taking meds. So Im going to take this year to address my bipolar as first priority and figure-out my career as a secondary goal.
As for networking, Im in a new area (where my parents live) and don't know anyone so I'm starting everything new (I was out of the country for almost 7 years).
