🎙UNBOUNDED is an interview series that features people who took a non-traditional route and/or have an integrative practice of their passion in life even if they have a 9-5 job. I want to show examples of people who have turned interests and hobbies into a truly integrative practice - whether that be starting something like a side hustle or just making room for it in their schedule.

Love this update!
Love to see this update - our stories are SO similar, and I'm just at the end of my year, so it's so reassuring to have all of the various updates of yours to reference and feel a little less alone
Thinh, I relate to you so much ❤ I’m a hospice nurse and I work full time night shifts. Caring for the elderly and being there for family is important work. I love that you do energy work ❤
Thanks for the update and glad to see you are doing well!
I’ve done loads of jobs and what you are doing, this composite career, is ideal. People convince themselves they need massive amounts of money to live well but living well is all about living connected. I just took care of my elderly mother as she died at home. It was a beautiful priviledge. I think living well below our means is the key to affording ourselves the luxury of work freedom, to do meaningful work. Instead of soul sucking corporate work.
Chị, I hope you know that somewhere in the world, there is someone who always admires your life journey ❤️
Aww thank you so much 🥹
i remember seeing your video about quitting amazon awhile back. and i just saw youtube recommended this video. thanks for the update and wish you the best of luck in your endeavor.
Thanks for sharing. Love it! Keep going
Omggg so happy to see this video pop up in my feed!!
Aww yay!!
Did any commenter below note the dramatic difference in career trajectory ....well maybe the transition from single corporate job to an eclectic collection of jobs / hustles. Wow,... are doing ok now. Maybe you are an entrepreneur type? Wow...your life is both encouraging and a bit scarry. I mean this in a good way, cuz so many out here are scared to leave a well paying full time gig. Wow. You are brave.
Thanks for sharing your story ❤
It sounds like you hustle a lot and get into the grind of things. I am similar; however, I do think I would like more time enjoying things that don't offer financial rewards, but money is a concern of mine. You mentioned money as a concern of yours. Do you think you get a good amount of downtime? I get that you get boosts from the work you do such as with geriatrics, but are you satisfied with the selfish time, for a lack of a better term, that you get?
Hey there - GREAT question. I actually find that I have lot of good downtime. Because of how I structure my work, I am now able to see my family and friends a LOT more than when I had a 9-5 job. Funny enough, my Mom now thinks it's normal to see me 2 weeks at a time 3-4 times out of the year instead of seeing me one week for an entire year... This is also the reason why I chose this - it's because I can drop and go whenever I need to.
@@thinhtawnle I guess it depends on the jobs you take. Like I said, I had a similar situation, where now I feel more independent; however, I earn less. It makes me worried about my future, so I work a lot.
Yea I can totally understand that. Sending you so much love - we got it! @@WhatsOnMyShelf
Do you see yourself going back to 9-5? Any doubts?
Great question! At this point no, however, I've thought about worse case scenarios, and if circumstances change and a 9-5 is the best option, then I would. But I think it will eventually lead me back to this position where I'd love to work for myself, or at least still have something of mine.
I hope you never have to go back
🙏me tooooooo
What do you do at Amazon?
I used to work in Amazon Advertising and helped advertising agencies use an agency-facing software.
