We have the same problem. This week I was talking to a new friend who is a primary school teacher. I told her I was a landscape researcher (a first outing of this title for me and literally made up on the spot). It felt natural and after asking how (on earth) I became one of them, she accepted it quicker than any role I’ve tried so far. “I do many things” is definitely going to get an outing if I’m feeling brave!
Glad to hear it’s not only me! Although I feel it’s very clear to me what you do, but it always seems that way from the outside. Maybe some people even think that about me?!?
Love the idea of trying and testing different responses and seeing where it takes the conversation. It’s a different way of thinking about it and less about having a “right” answer. Landscape researcher is a great one and very intriguing!

It’s a hard to describe a job that’s only just being developed.
I really enjoyed this read <3
Thank you, I’m glad it resonated!
You know this one feels close to home for me… I love the answer - I do many things! -> I’m going to try this one 💙
