Scholarship Opportunity

Dear Sophie,

As someone who has spent many years amassing knowledge about so many things, I’m stuck when it comes to working for someone else. My resume is crazy, but I hit the ground running and rock any job. I’ve been put in situations, handling them with professionalism and grace, that cause others to freak out. Despite this, I have realized my job is not a career.

At my current job, I am underpaid and over utilized. And when I get home from this job, I need ‘me’ time that my family cannot afford. There is hope—controlling my destiny via a freelance career can help me (and my family) pay bills, have some family time and do something I love for people… I want to be that girl who has control of her destiny again. I want to leave my job, once I have clients who can replace my salary and share my gifts with the world.

What I’m stuck on, is where to start, and once I have the knowledge, where to go with that knowledge to amass a list of amazing clients. I read 200 books a year and try to pass along kindness as much as possible. I write letters, real ones, and have a to-do list I take great pride in completing. I’m ready.

For these reasons and many more I respectfully request your assistance and allow me the scholarship… you will not be sorry.

Sincerely,
Nicole Reid
