It's All Good at Goodwill

I am really loving Goodwill right now! It's definitely an adjustment waking up at 5am to be in Macon by 7, but I have already learned so much in my first week.

Day one I jumped right in and I my Goodwill TV debut. I spoke to Fox24 about how new job seekers should be careful on Facebook . I had no idea I was going to be on camera and I learned a valuable lesson about bringing my makeup to work! :)

I am currently working on several different projects and I am most excited about interviewing the people who have success stories about their experiences with Goodwill.

The one thing I've always told myself about PR is that I only want to promote something that I feel passionate about. I think otherwise I would feel like I was selling out. Well the more I learn about Goodwill and its mission the more I fall in love with it. Goodwill's Mission is to build lives, families and communities - one job at a time - by helping people discover and develop their God -given gifts through work and career development services. You should check out this link to the website to learn more about how Goodwill lives out its mission.

I'm really happy to be there right now! It's great to love where you are and I am so excited to see what the summer brings!
