Sometimes, then I pay closer attention to my diet. More water, more fruits and veggies, less processed food. Also sleep.

How old are you?

Thank you! It is great that you look and feel that way :)

Lol, starting to feel this, turning 28 in a couple months 🤣

I know right?!!!

More likely that it’s exhaustion and poor sleep causing these things

Yeah it could be! I tried to do some exercise and get good sleep, but I can feel obviously that I am not that fast compared to the past few years

I’m starting to feel the toll of long busy season hours. Every night while working I realize I’m getting too old for this shit.

Discovered major pay difference between myself and two new male hires with equal experience. Asked for a raise and was shot down due to Covid and essentially told they make more (were talking a 30k) bc they don’t have my “other responsibilities” aKa my two kids. I know my productivity is effected by parental responsibility but I don’t feel that alone justifies the difference. I know our billable output isn’t drastically different. Not sure what my next steps should be and welcome any advice.

Has anyone here successfully exited to pharma after 1-2 YOE? Currently an SA at a small NYC market access firm with a wide range of projects under my belt for big pharma clients.

In my early 30s, single and realizing i barely have friends. Technically i have a bunch of friends all over the country (thanks to me moving around quite a bit) but not where I live so i don't see them as often. I shed a few so called friends post-pandemic who were flakey, some got married and spend most of their time with their families. I have like 2 people to invite for my birthday. Is that natural for 30s to have little friends or do i need to re-evaluate my life?
