Becoming a Journalist and getting more involved in the political space
I really wanna get into journalism, specifically independent or even investigative journalism. I wanna educate about politics especially leftism. Mostly focus on what can be done, because I'm tired of youtube/tiktok debates, and I believe it does more harm then good(I fuckin hate Jubilee). I wanna get started on doing on the ground work and inspire others to do the same
Additional Degrees
I love being educated, and I genuinely love learning. If I had the funds, I would like to keep going to college.
- Finance/accounting
- Forensic Science
- Political Science
Becoming a death doula
Paired with being a funeral director, I wanna give people more choices then just burials and cremations. More options then just a religious service.
Creating a Coven/Spiritual Community
Growing up in a Christian household and culture while being pagan, witchy or spiritual, is very isolating. I miss religious groups and gatherings not because I shared their faith but because I miss community. I would love to build a witchy/spiritual community, not just online but in person, with a physical chapter. So people can have a space to pray and do their spells. I would like to hold worship for the Greek gods every Sunday, educating as well. However there would be private rooms where ppl can pray and do spell, so worship of the Greek gods aren't necessary. I also would have dues for the coven, which will either goes towards funding the coven, or towards organizations.
I might add more. However overall I want to achieve great things and inspire people. Pulling them up with me.

So cool!! Great goals to have! People have many many careers in their life. It's also good to have options!
My (unsolicited) advice😀: I tell my students all the time about free online courses out there. Harvard has a bunch.
I also found this one specifically for journalism https://nbcuacademy.com/course/fundamentals-of-journalism/
Lots of people are doing investigative journalism on social media like Substack or even TikTok videos. (not exactly a degree, but would scratch the itch and give you practice)
You got this!
Thank you so much for the link!! Right now I'm debating between substack or wordpress or just overall my own website.

Highly recommend you do to some existing pagan gatherings/spaces and check out what's there and who's doing what

Back in the 90s, my HP and HPS were getting married, wanted a pagan ceremony, but had trouble finding legal clergy in those days doing that. They eventually found a druid group in NYC that would perform the ceremony, and since they got married in a park, one of the local college's anthropology department heard about it and came out to 'study' their wedding ceremony. Seems theirs was the first legal pagan wedding ceremony in NYC at that time 😆 nearly twenty years later, my HP and HPS performed my wedding ceremony 🙂

Anyway, there are lots of groups in and around the city, of course. If you have trouble locating, check in with the local Unitarians

Look for a local CUUPS chapter, or see if ATC is active in your area. Of, if you want to go Druid, see if the ADF has a grove near you.

I kinda confused on what CUUPS are. Are they like churches that host pagan events sometimes??
Also I was doing some research and found a bar that host witchy events. I WILL be going, hopefully find some like minded ppl🤗
by Jamz💋; ; Report
Yeah, they are a unitarian church that hosts pagan clergy.
About the bar. Go. Have a great time! Watch out for anyone who has paganism to sell you.
