Victoria’s Answer

I work as a speech pathologist in a hospital and find that the fast pace really helps me. This isn’t limited to speech pathology, you could consider something like radiology tech, phlebotomist, ultrasound, respiratory therapy, etc. From my experience, most of those roles allow you to have a full list of patients that you check off as the day goes by. This prevents the monotony of sitting and doing the same thing all day because you’ll be up and moving across the hospital. There are many more options I’m not thinking of right now. Do some research and see what schooling requirements are the best for for you then see if you can shadow someone with the job to see if you like it. Good luck!

Mollie’s Answer

Hello Valerie,

Are you a fan of the great outdoors? If so, have you ever considered a job with the National Park Service? You could become a Forest Ranger or a tour guide. If you have a passion for animals, you might find fulfillment as a veterinarian or a veterinary technician.

Alternatively, you might enjoy working in a dynamic environment like a zoo. If you prefer a more physically engaging job, a warehouse position could be a good fit for you, as it would keep you on the move.

If you're uncertain about pursuing a college degree, don't worry! There are many excellent trade schools available where you can master a specific skill, such as welding.

In essence, the world is full of opportunities. I sincerely hope you find the path that suits you best!
