It depends what green pasture you are looking for. Still recovering from health issues from so much stress but yes quality of life is a lot better. Definitely greener in the other side. For me health is priceless. Money is worthless without your health. I am self employed. I also my own business. I should have started and left long time ago.

I’ve been told my company is changing my title from Associate Director of BD to Sales Executive. I’m concerned it reads like a title demotion. Is it just semantics?

For context, it’s a professional services firm, I’ve been there 3+years, and they gave a Sales Executive title to someone who just started 5mo ago.
