Better Job Fit CEO Jan Barlow says, “After experiencing the negative psychological and physical effects of a bad job fit, I vowed as my life’s work to help position people in their strengths.”

Spring is here, making it a great time to have a plant buddy. Nurture it. Share its story. Because when we teach a child to grow a plant, we teach them to grow a future.

Every situation or change brings a silver lining—it’s our responsibility to recognize and embrace “the bright side” as an opportunity for growth and positivity to see the good you bring.

We learn common sense through our experiences. If you have siblings you’ll find that your common sense is similar to theirs. You grew up in the same household, had similar lessons and growth.

Once I allowed myself to embrace these feelings of change with openness and acknowledgment that my life was changing – exactly as I wanted – the more I began to adapt and love my new home.
