Hi, firstly thank you for all the Rusty Quill things, and for making diversity and inclusivity normal in media. I am a voice coach, teaching ages 8-18, and have entirely accidentally fallen into the role of being the go to teacher in my area for pupils with various neurodivergences, which I love but also frequently have huge imposter syndrome about. Many of my pupils want to go into performing arts in the future, so my question (if it is not too personal) is what do you wish the relevant adults in your life had said or done at that age, or what did they do, to make things easier for you when you were starting out? What do you wish you had known? What would you say to your younger self?
Firstly good on you for being an educator and you should be proud of being a "go to" teacher that speaks to the quality of your character.
I will answer your question honestly. That means it probably won't be inspirational. I would advise sanitising my response for younger ears:
What help did adults give me: 1) I got help with the mechanics of setting up and maintaining a business and my finances. It's arcane, obtuse and unfair. EVERYONE needs this help. 2) I was encouraged not to overspecialise too early. I wanted to go into acting and was pressured not to. At the time it felt like a lack of faith in me but In retrospect it was the right decision and I now have a very broad academic foundation I can build from that has served me well. 3) I was afforded opportunities disproportionate to my age which granted me a big leg up. I got to direct shows very young, I got to lead international expeditions etc. That stuff forges you. 4) I was required to undergo neurodivergence screening at my Masters as standard procedure. It revealed I had stuff going on which explained all my difficulties and instantly transformed my career for the better. Every institution should do this. 5) I had some "go to" teachers who supported me and actually gave a shit about what I had to say. That kept me going more than they will ever know. 6) I got to act as a PA to highly competent female tech CEO. She turned down a major opportunity after she saw decision makers mistreat me. I learnt a HUGE amount from that woman and I will always be grateful to her. There is room for ethics in business. 7) When young I was forced to read. Learning to read was awful. Being able to read was transcendent. 8) I had access to libraries and and was allowed to study as much as I wanted on any topic I wanted in my own time. There was always a new book waiting for me at home. 9) I was educated on my privileges at a young age. 10) My education was treated as a priority.
What help did I wish I had got: 1) I wish my neurodivergence had been recognised and assisted properly earlier. I suffered unnecessarily and learned a lot of bad coping strategies that plague me to this day. 2) I graduated from school into what was then the worst job market in modern times. Most older adults didn't recognise this and were still telling everyone it was a skill issue. I needed those who knew better to speak up against that toxic narrative more. 3) I needed support once I left education. It felt like being forced to walk off a cliff and then everyone saying "Why aren't you flying? Don't be lazy or you'll hit the ground and die." You'd ask for help and there was nothing, or worse, people would gloat: "not so easy in the real world is it kiddo?" If you see someone pulling that shit on a child, call them up on it. 4) I wish someone had spent some time formally teaching me how to deal with hostile/selfish people. As a kid, I honestly thought the quality of one's life is primarily determined by how hard you work and that is just not true. Lazy, stupid and horrible people prosper all the time. I was very naïve and I suffered a lot because of it. 5) Similarly, I wish I'd had formal help networking. Even now I find it incredibly difficult. Someone needed to sit me down and say "No-one actually cares about you. The goal is to make as many people who are more successful than you like you and believe they can profit from you as possible without overcommitting or being disingenuous." 6) I needed someone to sit me down and explain that I don't have to sprint every second of every day for fear of "falling behind". I never learned how to maintain proper boundaries and I was so desperate to be understood that I let people take advantage of me and wasted a lot of time and effort on underserving people/projects.
What do you wish you had known? 1) Media attracts specific toxic personality types more than other industries. You need to learn to recognise it and how to deal with it. 2) People say "its not what you know, its who you know" but its more than that. The system is actively built to keep you out. Talent and hard work don't hurt but really? You will only get opportunities if someone thinks they can profit from you. Make yourself profitable to them whilst ensuring you get something from it too. 3) Hard skills are still perceived as more valuable than soft skills, especially when starting out. Learn EVERYTHING technical, that way you can always justify your presence on set. 4) Opportunity cost is an essential concept you have to understand and recognise. You suffer more from things you are overcommitted to than things you chose not to do. 5) People mostly (myself included) make decisions irrationally and based on a biased emotions and it doesn't matter how right you are, how reasonable or eloquently you explain yourself, how much evidence you present or how benevolently you act, they are going to keep doing that. 6) Everyone (even me) has half-baked opinions without realising it and most people giving you advice either don't know what they are talking about or want something from you. If you find someone who has an educated opinion and is offering good advice that is actually helping then listen, keep them in your life and reward their effort because they are RARE.
What would you say to your younger self? 1) What you want will come at a far higher cost than you can imagine. 2) You have so much more time than you think. 3) Working harder solves urgent problems but not important problems. 4) The quality of the people you surround yourself with determines the quality of your life. 5) You are different. That's not good or bad. It just is. 6) Some people will resent you. Make sure they are wrong without expecting them to recognise it. 7) NOONE HAS THEIR SHIT TOGETHER. EVER. Some people just present better.
Reading all this back it seems like a MASSIVE DOWNER so I'm sorry about that. I just remember being told a lot of "work hard and chase your dreams!" when what I needed to hear was "mass media is, in part, a patriarchal driven, semi-nationalist, capitalist, distributed propaganda engine and if you want to engage in it in a creative capacity without sacrificing your ethics you need to learn to subvert or circumnavigate that status quo without being ostracised or consumed by it."
You may want to soften that message for the 8 year olds. I dunno, your call.

Pile 1
Oh, this is a complete change, something you were doing before had to be let go of, or you are simply starting a new position. This can be a manifestation, but in reality, its acompletely new start for your life. There is an opportunity being handed to you here. It's going to require you to take a leap of faith and say yes. There is financial stability in this new position or job, and you will be able to have autonomy over your direction at this time. Invest in yourself wisely, pay attention to what is next for you. You will have a higher position here, one you possibly took over from someone else. I did sense that some people around you will feel very entitled or even jealous about your journey. It's giving "how did they do that?", " When could they afford?" Don't pay it any mind; this chance came from your work and conception. You are receiving the fruits of your labor. Be mindful of your self-development journey and make adjustments internally to the changes you are going after. Be mindful of your money mindset, environment, and habits. Think about how you are serving your goals and purpose. But overall, this is delightful energy of new, fresh abundance settling into your life. Anecstrally, it seems to be protected and aided through ancestors who walk with you. Guidance comes from them to help you discern which direction is harmful and which one is abundant.
Extended
Pile 2
Just know you got it. That promotion, the victory, the promise of abundance is yours. A lot of people around you want this chance; you may have dealt with gossipers and naysayers. I think people are confused about how you keep getting back up and improving. It gives the impression that someone will be very upset that you have this chance to upgrade. I see success in general in this next phase, but emotionally, you may be so preoccupied that you can't enjoy the moment. It's important to lean into your discipline and discernment. But also take care of yourself, whatever conflicts come about or changes that illuminate self-doubt, reflect on how those parts of yourself don't serve or deserve to take up space where your new energy belongs. It's time to move on in the midst of this, but this transition isn't new; you're in the process of succeeding and gaining peace. You seem to still see the bright side, but it's important to tend to yourself because it's still a process of tension; make sure you release. This could be a competition as well, or a position that is chosen from a small group of auditions or people. Consider yourself lucky because I see what you're working on, leading to another opportunity. Their guidance here is to work on your skills and mindset moving through this energy of transition.
Extended
Pile 3
You seem to have a lot going on, but also not a lot of movement. I think this pile could be looking or preparing for the job that they want, one that's more fulfilling and secure. There is a focus on stability here. You need to regroup so that you're not carrying an energy of lack and closing yourself off from possibilities. You're being asked to regulate your life overall to match the energy you want to receive. Healing and peace are here or on their way. Some of you are focused on this right now while preparing your next steps. You could work with someone whom you're confiding in as well; this feels like someone who wants to support your best interests. I'd say if this had happened, don't be afraid to allow help from people around you, ones that are for your highest good, of course. There is an energy of a slight pause and reflection; you are calibrating your energy at this time for renewal. I think there is an energy of spiritual refreshing, like a cleansing energy. You may need to refresh your perspective; you shouldn't move forward in the same way. 8 of cups at the back of the deck tells me that you either are leaving soMething personally or the job you are at currently. A lot of these cards have their eyes closed, except the five of pentacles. Make sure your focus isn't solely on finances for the sake of making money; you're not Mr. Crabs. It won't require excessive focus on status or finances right now. This is more about exploring the energy of abundance and peace. choosing what makes you happy, not choosing money as the source of your happiness based on lack. You need to meditate on what it is you would like to go after. I think investing in some silence and peace, things that may be outside of work and your comfort zone. These things will help your energy calm down and give you peace of mind.
Extended
Pile 4
This is a big change for you. I heard I'm coming out, and the 6 of swords flew. Are you ready to get away from somewhere? moving on to better. I see that being the energy you are calling in, a chance to start fresh and find what you're really looking for. I do feel more of a business in this pile; some of you here could own your own business or look towards a position of stability and good pay for sure. I see you making good money from this next venture. You're choosing yourself for sure, almost radically. This could be something in defiance of those around you in personal life or work. Your support system can change, and not in the best way. I see inner turmoil and endings here. You could quit or choose a path that will ultimately release someone's energy from your path. You could also feel a bit slighted by those around you; this feels emotional, not necessarily confrontational. An ending here is inevitable; start planning and planting seeds on the path you truly want for yourself. You still will be getting something of value before this ending settles in; it could be an offer that leads you elsewhere. It could involve how what you want will take you into unknown territory. It seems like what you're doing is a bit isolated, secretive even. You could be coming up with a strategy to improve your circumstances. The important message here is to keep your head. Follow your intuition into this new path, knowing the unexpected is to be expected, just not the way you think. This will require trust in your higher power. You could also lose a couple of people on the wya there. It's also giving that you may have to cut people off because this new energy will reveal the snake sint he gras. You will notice that there could be energies around you trying to damage your chance or happiness. Be careful of telling every single thing, especially before its confrimed. Move in silence and play the game. Work on keeping your eye directly on the prize. Don't allow vulnerability to turn into cracks in the foundation.

career tarot reading guide: money, abundance, professional success
stop memorizing meanings and start reading the rhythm of your labors.
when you lay the cards out to ask about your professional future, you might know the definitions by heart, yet the cards often sit there in a profound silence. they whisper in their own tongues, but they fail to form a coherent sentence. at that moment, you are standing on the sharp divide between knowing tarot and reading tarot.
tarot is not a static dictionary of isolated words; it is a living language where cards change clothes depending on the color of the question asked. a sword card drawn for a love reading might represent heartache, but the same card in a career reading could herald a sharp intellect and a brilliant strategic move.
if you are looking for a map to the material world, you have to understand the algorithms:
the test of ripening if you pull the 4 of pentacles + the hanged man + the 7 of pentacles, the universe isn't rejecting you. "the process may move slower than expected; the decision is in limbo where you can do nothing but wait. a harvest time will eventually come, but only through patience. waiting without making impulsive decisions is the healthiest path."
the jarring start if you see the tower followed by the 8 of pentacles, it signals a sudden development outside your current plans. "the tower represents the collapse of your current career perception, while the 8 of pentacles reflects the permanence and effort required on this new path. redirection is the master key to success."
the scarcity algorithm when the 4 of pentacles appears, it signals a scarcity mindset—holding on too tightly to what you have out of fear of loss. "if the turn of the wheel leads to the ace of pentacles, letting go of the old way of being is the key to opening a new door of prosperity."
