Oh, hello!
I'm Valerie- it's nice to "meet" you! Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you are getting lots of informational "gems" throughout this site.
My purpose for creating Oh, hello work life is to help mid-career professional pivoting their careers. I am pivoting with you! I was laid off in 2020 and as I was searching the internet for information on how to launch a side hustle, I realized the info wasn't very clear.
So I was on a mission to demystify subjects and topics on careers, starting a new business, and how to start a side hustle. Anything business related is my jam!
I am also a Mom of two bi-racial kids, and I wanted to create a space for business resources, information, and stories for people of color. They both want to start their own business in the future, so I hope these posts will help them learn, grow, and thrive.
That's it in a nutshell, but if you are reading this section, then you are probably looking for a bit more info about me.
Here are a few fun facts about me:
- Retail Fashion Vet for over 18 years
- Launched several businesses
- If I'm not side hustlin' then something isn't right
- Love podcasts & happy hours
- If I'm not writing then I am on LinkedIn (Let's Connect!)
Happy reading!
