Episode 17: The Power of Career Storytelling with Virginia Franco

Ditch the forms. Embrace your story. Learn why your career narrative matters more than ever.

What separates a good resume from a great one? In this episode of Work Should Feel Good, Diana sits down with Virginia Franco, founder of Virginia Franco Resumes and a leader in the resume writing world, to unpack what makes compelling career collateral and why storytelling is the real game-changer.

Virginia shares how her unique background in journalism and social work helps her extract powerful stories from clients, why she refuses to use forms, and the real difference between a $250 resume and a $2,000 one. You'll also hear how she built a thriving business that supports her lifestyle — including how she took six weeks off each summer and still stayed booked out.

If you're thinking about a career pivot, launching your own service-based business, or just want to better understand how to market yourself, this episode is packed with gold.
