Anyone else been in a rut where you feel like you don’t have a sense of purpose? If so, did you end up switching jobs/fields? Feeling like I might be on the outs for consulting…

Yes. I got a dog. Then became a big sister with BBBS. Then I launched a business. Those 3 things gave me purpose for sure.

What kind of business??

I feel you!!! I’m also going through that but haven’t pulled any triggers on other jobs or anything. Just getting by day-by-day you know? I feel very much on auto-pilot without motivation and purpose. I’m considering maybe getting a career counselor or something.

Trying out bumble bff. Met a girl for drinks last week and we seemed to hit it off. We mentioned doing something again and coordinating later in the week. I texted her today to ask if she was still interested in doing something this week and she said she was super busy with a huge project and apologized. But she didn’t offer the weekend (which I feel is included in “this week”), didn’t say “lets do another time” or anything like that. Should I take the L and count her as not rly interested 🥲

Hi ladies! An old chestnut but would still love to hear your advice: i am fairly certain a key senior stakeholder is being difficult because he perceives me as a senior non white woman trying to boss him around. I have heard that he doesn’t like to surround himself with people cleverer than him in fear of them taking over his job, which to me further confirms this is a possibility. What can/should I do? TIA!

No judgement to anyone that does differently. It’s just what I feel comfortable with. I’ve had a few guys tell me they won’t do outdoor dates for some reason… some have cited weather but others legit say no (in 70 weather) because it’s a hassle & “Covid is a joke.” Please tell me if this is normal.
