People say that being in your twenties is THE hardest and most turbulent decade of your life. With roadblocks left and right, it helps immensely to have someone who has “been there and done that” to readily give you seasoned advice, and the answers to the questions he or she has lived to answer. Christine Hassler, a 20-something expert, life coach, author, and regular contributor to the Huffington Post, is the ideal person to do just that. With a majority of OneCubicle’s audience being 20-somethings, she is the perfect person to help us reach out to our members on a deeper level than just merely sifting through job listings, profiles, and meaningless Tweets.

Finding a job that does more than just pay the bills (if you’re lucky enough to get one that pays enough to even do that!) is becoming increasingly difficult as entry-level jobs become even more unyielding, and having a degree does not command the same power it used to (can you say “dime a dozen”?). With a smorgasbord of work, relationships, and self-satisfaction to obtain, it’s difficult to take the whole world on your shoulders while standing on your own two feet during a hurricane of change. Christine, who has gone through her twenties and survived to recount the tale, tells all of us that we have the power within ourselves to transform our twenties into a glorious decade of getting exactly what we want (and not what society tells us we want!).

This is why we made her our best friend. Let’s break it down:
1. She can be your best friend too.
Christine has been in your shoes.
- She chased after that corporate dream, but it left her with a nervous breakdown, poor health, and the realization that once she had everything that she thought she wanted, she was absolutely miserable
- She fell in love, but not with “the ONE”
- She went from having the world to having nothing but herself.
- She is a “survivor of the twenty-something crisis” and she can HELP YOU TOO.
2. I’m happy, I’m happy, I’m happy.
If you focus on the things in life that make you smile, you will be a much happier person. Attaining happinss is one of the most enigmatic and written upon subjects of the 20th and 21st century. This is most likely due to the fact that we are all running around chasing after a completely quixotic and (for all intents and purposes) unachievable goal. And it is only unacheivable because the model with which we use to achieve this goal is a product of years of conditioned thought and societal influence. Christine teaches us to remove the external influencing factors that cloud our ability to connect with our inner selves, and empowers us to look within our own minds and hearts for happiness. Christine provides positive advice for getting through those rough patches – sunlight we could all use on the gloomiest of days.
3. Now is the time.
Who are you? What is it that makes you wake up in the morning? Where do you want to go and how are you going to get there? Now is the time to tune out the negative energy, to channel your inner confident and capable self, and to tune into your own capabilities for success. Christine shares her experiences with you much like an older sister would, and empowers you with the tools to turn breakdowns into breakthroughs. She has walked your path and wants you to know that you are not alone. Because Christine has been through her twenties (and has lived to tell the tale!), you’ll see that she has the power to connect with you on a deeper level…to touch your soul and help it grow.
