Conflicted in My Childhood Career Choices

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

These days, the only job that seems to keep me interested is the one that combines quite a bit of disparate activity. In PR, we are part counselor, salesperson, troubleshooter, secretary, creative, mediator…you name it and we do it. As a kid I wasn’t much different. I had two main career aspirations – surgeon and go-go dancer.  In some ways, dissection and dancing go hand in hand in the public relations business –  so maybe I’m not that far off from my childhood dreams.
