Today we’d like to introduce you to Jessica Kay.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Jessica. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
I’ve had 6 years under my belt in corporate marketing in the biotech field when I started my blog. I wanted to put the things I learned in digital marketing to good use. Three years into blogging, I have a thriving blog and have since then leveraged my blogging experience to turn myself into a social media expert. I have a lifelong passion for learning and I love that my career and blogging experience is a direct testament to that!
Has it been a smooth road?
When I was in the corporate world, finding time to write, do photo shoots, find the right partners (photographer, graphic designer, web designer, etc.) was a constant challenge. Time management was a skill I had to hone in again and again. Now, that I am freelancing, I am finding time management to be challenging in a different way – I have so much time and how to structure my day is of the utmost importance. Another big challenge as a small business owner is finding the right help at the right moment, especially when it comes to the paid kind fo coaching/consultation. It’s been a real challenge in trying to identify the right kind of help at the right moment and justify the expense that comes with this kind of help.
So, as you know, we’re impressed with Cubicle Chic – tell our readers more, for example, what you’re most proud of as a company and what sets you apart from others.
Cubicle Chic is a brand I’ve created around a millennial woman’s corporate career, whether be it fashion, career development, personal development, money and happiness tips. Cubicle Chic is known for its honest, truthful, not-afraid-to-speak-the-taboo-subjects kind of tone. What sets Cubicle Chic apart from other blogs is that it’s a true blend of a lifestyle blog and a career blog.
Do you think there are structural or other barriers impeding the emergence of more female leaders?
I don’t think women are going for leadership roles as much as men. Women themselves have bought into the pervasive idea of the glass ceiling oppressing our gender in the workforce. But, I think there is some self-fulfilling prophecy in effect here, not to dimish it as a real phenomenon.
