As a result of a traumatic experience, Laura Waterson turned the trauma into a purposeful career with VETWOW http://www.vetwow.com .

Many of these people started their careers during difficult times.  As indicated in this series of interviews, we discover our creativity and ingenuity during difficult times.  Usually it comes with hard choices, determination and perseverance.  Sometimes through happenstance, a career can emerge.  However with turbulent times, many old institutions crumble and their jobs with them.  Confusion follows these endings. At this juncture, it is critical to find your new career solutions. The questions arise again.  Who am I?  What are my strengths? Where are the new jobs?  And how to I find them?

Career counseling with a skilled and knowledgeable career counselor can facilitate rediscovering your strengths, skills and inclinations.  A career counselor can quickly identify the additional skills and training needed to bridge to new occupations.  With this information an educational and career road map will emerge that will greatly help to alleviate your anxiety of the unknown and thus assist in regaining a sense of mastery over your life again.
