The body keeps the score

“The Old Irish Healer to the Soul” It’s not your back that hurts, but the burden.
It’s not your eyes that hurt, but injustice.
It’s not your head that hurts, it’s your thoughts.
It’s not the throat, but what you don’t express or say with anger.
It’s not the stomach hurts, but what the soul does not digest.
It’s not the liver that hurts, it’s the anger.
It’s not your heart that hurts, but love.
And it is love itself that contains the most powerful medicine.

I picked up this book partly out of curiosity and partly out of a secret hope, it’s not every day you find a guide that promises to crack open the door to unconventional, passion-fueled careers. Jo Stewart delivers exactly that: a refreshing, fun, and surprisingly practical catalog of jobs that make you rethink the tired “safe” career advice we’ve been fed.

The tone is playful, but it’s not just fluff. Each career profile tells you what the job actually involves, the skills you’ll need, how to get started, and even what the lifestyle looks like. It’s a mix of eye-opening (“Wait, that’s a real job?”) and motivational (“Maybe I could do that”). From ethical hackers to ice cream flavor developers, travel Instagrammers to ethical fashion designers, Stewart proves that work doesn’t have to be soul-sucking to be sustainable.

This is the kind of book that sparks conversations, stirs dormant dreams, and reminds you there’s a whole world of possibilities outside the 9-to-5 cubicle box. It’s less about saying “quit your job tomorrow” and more about expanding your vision for what’s possible and then giving you a realistic picture of what it takes.

Lessons from the Book:

1. The World is Full of Jobs You’ve Never Heard Of
Your dream career might exist already, you just don’t know its name yet. Research, curiosity, and networking can uncover hidden opportunities.

2. Creativity Can Pay, If You Treat It Like a Business
Many “fun” careers still require discipline, planning, and marketing yourself effectively. Passion alone isn’t enough, you need strategy.

3. Lifestyle Fit Matters as Much as Job Fit
Stewart encourages you to think about what your days would actually look like in a given role, not just the exciting parts.

4. Unconventional Doesn’t Mean Unstable
Many niche careers are financially viable if you learn how to package your skills and find the right clients or employers.

5. Networking and Visibility Are Key
In creative and unusual fields, getting noticed can matter as much as the work itself, your brand, portfolio, and online presence open doors.

6. Skills Can Transfer Across Industries
You don’t always have to start from scratch, many people transition into unconventional careers using skills they already have, reframed in a new way.

7. Curiosity is a Career Superpower
Staying curious, experimenting, and exploring new skills will keep your options open and your work life vibrant.
