Join us in celebrating World Gratitude Day, September 21^st! What even is World Gratitude Day, you say? I know the word gratitude starts to look funny if you look at it long enough. Repeating it over and over, it starts to sound funny too.  But, it’s not a day that should be looked over or laughed at because it’s a day of recognition and realization! A day not only to recognize those around you but to recognize yourself! It’s even meant to bring awareness to your environment and bring a moment of appreciation to even that. If you are interested about the history of this wonderful day and how it started, check it out here.

No matter who you are or the position you are starting, first days can be nerve-racking. I mean who wouldn’t be a little anxious stepping into the vast unknown we like to call our future? There’s pressure that comes with the first day. Are you as good as the hiring manager thinks you are? Are you going to fit in? What if your first-day outfit screams too much “I’m new here!”?
