I think it helps that I've been in variations of that gap before and this time I have a part time job that I enjoy and pays decently. Also I have my family's support and trust that I will figure this out.
Before I went to New Zealand, I had about a year when I had an internship that didn't pay and no real good job possibilities. Then after New Zealand, I had almost a year before coming here when I was looking for administrative jobs.
This time, the sorts of jobs I'm looking for are ones I really want and feel passionate about and I feel prepared for. The difference is staggering in terms of how I feel.
