In Southern California, where rent, groceries, and gas stretch every paycheck thin, Jasmine was working full-time as a Certified Nurse Assistant. She loved caring for others but often felt like she was barely staying afloat. Long hours, high stress, and a paycheck that never quite covered everything left her exhausted and financially stuck.

When the pandemic hit, the cracks in her routine widened. The world was changing, and Jasmine knew she needed to rethink how she made a living. She turned to gig platforms like Postmates and UberEats, hoping that the promise of flexibility might offer some relief. But without predictable earnings, it became harder to plan for rent, bills, or anything beyond the next few days.

That’s when her mom stepped in with a suggestion. She worked with flex talent at WorldPac and told Jasmine about WorkWhile, a platform she thought could help. Jasmine downloaded the app, gave it a try, and immediately noticed a difference.

Nearly two years later, Jasmine has completed 358 shifts and holds a flawless 5.0 rating. She’s now one of the top-rated professionals working flexibly at WorldPac. Most weeks, she picks up shifts six days out of seven, not because she has to, but because she wants to, and because she can choose when and where to work.

The biggest game changer? Financial control. “I’m on WorkWhile because of Next Day Pay,” Jasmine explains. “I can access my earnings whenever I want. It’s made a huge difference in my financial life.”

With predictable income and the ability to cash out on her own schedule, she no longer has to wait for a traditional paycheck to stay ahead of her bills.

That shift in timing changed her relationship with money. Instead of living paycheck to paycheck, Jasmine now pays bills as they come in. No more late fees, no more scraping by. Her improved budgeting has helped her save too. Last Christmas, she surprised herself with something big: a new car, bought with her WorkWhile earnings.

Beyond money, WorkWhile has given Jasmine peace of mind. Life still throws curveballs, but now she has the freedom to adjust.

“If something pops up, I can just take the day off. I don’t do it often, but knowing I can gives me peace of mind,” she says.

She’s referred the platform to her cousin and stepmom, confident that it can provide the same stability and freedom it’s given her. For Jasmine, this is more than a side hustle, it’s a foundation. One that’s helping her plan, save, and thrive. Looking ahead, her goals are clear: keep building financial security, keep moving forward, and stay in control of her future. With WorkWhile, she finally can.
