Unemployment has remained near historic lows for the past few months, even with rate increases. Still, it does appear to be slowing, at least a little bit.

The latest jobs report came in under what economists expected, something they are calling a good sign that inflation is cooling.

Still, some people are doing whatever they can to make ends meet. That includes working multiple jobs. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, more than 400,000 Americans work two full-time jobs.

Some work even more.

Kelli Scott is one of many people in the world today working multiple jobs to make ends meet. She’s doing it successfully to provide for her daughter, Journey.

“The best things happen from getting outside your comfort zone," Scott said.

She has many passions.

“I’ve always liked doing a variety of things,” she said. “I’ve never been that person to be like, ‘Oh this is exactly what I want to do with my life. I’ve made it so my schedule is in a way flexible. So I’m able to do a lot of different things that I enjoy."

Currently, she’s a teacher assistant, fitness trainer and photographer, among other responsibilities. As she edits her photos, the reason why she does all of this is to provide for her daughter, Journey.

“She’s my heart and my soul," Scott said. "She’s everything to me. My life changed when I had her. I’ve told her numerous times that she saved my life.”

Her perspective changed.

“At the time I was not in a very healthy relationship," said Scott. "By having her it really woke me up that this is not OK, this is toxic for you, this is not the life that you want for your daughter.”

Getting away from that has allowed them to live a fulfilling life. She hopes all the work she’s doing inspires her daughter.

“I want her to just have that takeaway that anything you set your mind to, it's possible," she said. "So I want her to know that she’s strong enough, she’s good enough and whatever her heart desires she can do.”

But working multiple jobs as a single mom brings many challenges. Despite all of the responsibilities and hours spent scheduling her days, sometimes she can’t help but wonder if she should be doing more.

“Self-doubt and thinking that I’m not doing enough when I’m doing a lot of things," said Scott. "I have a really good support system that they remind me that hey you’re doing a great job.”

She approaches everything with a positive mindset to get the most out of herself.

“Your work does not define who you are as a person," she said. "As long as you’re kind and you're living to the best of your abilities. Life’s golden, man."
