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.

It makes it hard to see what I really want, because I always take their feelings into account. ~rant over~

On dating apps in NYC - I notice I have to ask everyone out after talking for a while. They immediately say yes, but why aren’t they taking the initiative to just ask?

I need to get this off my chest. I joined a new job recently but had a crush on my hiring manager (now manager) ever since he started interviewing me. He’s getting married soon and it’s so painful to hear him talk about it. I feel so stupid for feeling the way I do. He is everything I’d want in a life partner. That is all.

Just a rant: A friend of mine told me she attended an awesome leadership conference with entrepreneurs in their 20s. It ended up being Amway and now she is trying to recruit me but it’s being phrased as a “selective” interview process for mentorship. I told her amway is a pyramid scheme/scam and she gave me some spiel about how it’s not. One of the soundbites is how many of the people in this are well paid consultants, doctors etc but are choosing making money this way lmao

Hi! Been feeling beyond anxious the last couple of weeks and it seems every morning when I wake up that I get instantly emotional due to the anxiety. Can’t tell if it’s because of work, environment, or simply homesick. This started when I had a bad day on a project and the manager took it out on me and things did get better and I’m rolling off the project this week but the anxiety is still there.
