I love the change up of what you called the sterile CV in your cover letter and the focus instead on your passions, focus and frustrations. This sounds way more authentic to me and valuable to an employer to get to know the real you. So if it doesn’t land with them, maybe they weren’t the right match. I applaud your courage to try something different! Also, everyday enlightenment moments like the handpan player is a wonderful reminder that we can find new muses and inspiration all around. Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks! As I was writing this new CV, it felt simultaneously liberating and terrifying, so I'm definitely doing something right!! We'll see what happens, but bravery and personal expression are feeling good.
