What You Believe In is Where You Should Work!
Many of us have been in situations where we didn’t feel loved, accepted, or understood. Whether it be among friends, coworkers, or even our own family. It doesn’t make us feel too hot, no? Guess what? We do not need to put ourselves in situations like that, especially when it comes to work. Simply target and apply to companies that align with your values
and beliefs, and BOOM! You’re on track to land yourself a position somewhere safe where you are encouraged to be the brightest and truest you there is. Amazing! Don’t let the stress of feeling like you need to find ANY job at ANY company compromise you feeling accepted and comfortable in your work environment.

Remember that a company’s values dictate the action they will take. Just like our values dictate the actions we will take. Strive to find companies that are LGBTQ+ positive. You deserve to be supported, loved, and understood. You bring assets to a company that no one else can. The diversity you offer is an asset. This will help lead you to the company suited just for you!
Instead of feeling stressed about your safety, company gossip, etc. you can worry about your work and how to be the best person and employee you can be. In turn you will be more productive, feel more valued, and be more committed to the organization because they will be more committed to you.
