Spin master-in-the-making with killer storytelling superpowers

Do you live on the bleeding edge of entertainment? Do you scroll through the boring regular news to get to the juicy gossip? 

We’re looking for talented writers who don’t just live and breathe pop-culture and are freakishly clairvoyant about trending celebrities, but who also know how well-crafted and meaningful stories, even those of the rich and famous, can be inspiring and uplifting. 

Any hack can pump out mindless listicles. Instead, we want you to make users get weepy when they see Robert Downey Jr. helping out sick children, and be awed by Rihanna’s inspiring rags-to-riches journey. We want you to change the world with amazing stories that inspire millions. 

Dream big. Live bigger.

Our goal is nothing short of changing the world by empowering people to live the impossible -- and the Entertainment Editor plays a crucial role in that mission. 

To succeed, you will be a creative storyteller with copy-editing superpowers who knows how to breathe emotion and inspiration into what otherwise might be lifeless material.

Be the change: Do you take ruthless responsibility for your reality? 

Are you constantly looking for ways to create the positive change you want to see in the world through your gifts and talents? 

You go beyond the trappings of blame, scapegoats and denial that are keeping you trapped on the surface, trapped in a prison of your own making and away from what truly fulfills you. You own up to the responsibility of creating your own destiny and act upon it.


Seek discomfort: You look for your deepest fears so you can plunge into them head on 

Maybe you can only sense it, but somewhere inside that darkness, waiting to be nurtured, is the seed of your future self. You love to break into yourself and plunge deep, deep inside the dark earth inside you, and get to work.

You are not afraid to get your hands dirty; in fact, you enjoy it, humbling and uprooting yourself to get to the source of whatever problem is holding you back from achieving the next level of growth. You crack open the darkness of closed-mindedness to let in the sunshine of possibility.


Authenticity: You’re a straight shooter who’s not afraid to get vulnerable in front of others

You know that truth is the only way forward. You seek it in yourself, and you’re not afraid to speak it. You challenge your own truths all the time, and you won’t shy away from healthy dialogue -- with yourself and others. 

You also know that the basis of strong relationships is trust, and you choose to lead by example. You give others the benefit of the doubt and focus on seeking different perspectives while shoving your ego to the side. 

Together, we break out of our old selves and walk this clear path to success and consciousness, unlocking our potential while helping others do the same.
