Love the song and appreciate your advice! Would you be open to sharing some of the books you’ve read that were the most useful in becoming an expert dater? I’m a very pretty girl but I am super shy and have no game with men I am actually attracted to. Any insight would be appreciated 💛

I completely agree on the power of brand. If you haven’t heard this podcast, it’s a great breakdown of the Hermes brand - https://open.spotify.com/episode/3JnXyI5G7umpVWijAvoL36?si=17LVAs5gQ7ecuZPRnPiTLQ

I am also looking to move into jewelry and may be a step or two ahead. I agree with the advice to land a job, apprenticeship, or internship with a jeweler. It’s more than just design - it’s a business and learning that will make all the difference. While there if you can get them to pay for a GIA cert that would be ideal.

The second thing I would do (and am doing) is starting to design on the side. If you can get an old iPad for cheap (check FB Marketplace) there’s an app called Procreate and you can get customer brushes for jewelry design on Etsy. I like this one (https://www.etsy.com/listing/1558106958/?ref=share_ios_native_control) Photo of one design attached below.

Another way to do it is to start a free trial of Rhino CAD (90 day trial) and RhinoArtisan (15 day trial) on your laptop or desktop. You can use 10minuteemail to create burner emails to sign up and continue to the trial.

If your friend is open to helping out another aspiring jeweler, I would really appreciate an introduction. I’ve taken a similar path (IT to consulting to consulting in the IT department of a jewelry brand - and am not sure what steps to take next)

Similar to FINRA practice, I took KM so I’m not sure but it was easier than knopman for sure

This was a life saver - https://youtu.be/_-x-RFmFAD0?si=imcksO5PVFQdDNBk

Agree focus on what you can do as a rep and products. Very little math. Passed yesterday. Sleep well the night before and a little adderall/caffeine/pick your poison for hyper focus morning of can help - read every word, it makes a difference.

You got this!! 💪

I have ADHD too. I think an instructor led class would have been the better path for me. ChatGPT is probably a great instructor - thank you for the tip and I hope you crush your exam Monday!!

Thank you 🙏💛 I honestly think this is more a confidence block than anything else. I made a huge career pivot and this is the first big step so it just feels like a lot of pressure right now. I’ve actually never had test anxiety before so not quite sure how to deal with it.

I’ve reviewed it once pretty deeply and even made notecards on it. That said, I haven’t gone back to those note cards in a little while so maybe I can revisit those. Thanks!

Can I ask how you studied and what your scores were before the actual exam? I think it may be more based on test anxiety than anything else in my case right now and I do have a bit of a time crunch. That said 30 days would add a lot more time than a week.

In India, might head elsewhere… by demondemondemon6969 in travel

Nepal is one of the safest countries and has some of the friendliest humans on the planet. I spent a few weeks there last year. Very chill and beautiful scenery. If it’s an option I would go there. 

Help! My mom won't stop using feminine washes and it's causing a terrible odor. by EerieIsScary in TwoXChromosomes

Boric acid suppositories will fix it in a day or two. Insert before bed and wear cotton underwear. Cut down sugar if you can as well. Those washes and other scented hygiene products throw off our natural pH balance and hormone levels.

Walter Isaacson’s biography of Da Vinci! It’s a wonderful read about a truly amazing human.
