Before finding the world of career and employment counselling, I knew the world of theatre and music. Despite an enthusiastic interest in classical music, I harboured a secret passion for cocktail medleys – those soft, sweet, soothing songs that personify the meaning of medley, and conjure up the smoky-blue image of a piano lounge making music for the after 5 crowd. It was at one of these cocktail hours that I was first introduced to another medley. The professional scrapbook we in the career counselling business call the portfolio.
