Moving to a smaller more outdoorsy centre due to work from home. I’m trying to decide between a two bedroom and a one bedroom, but feel a bit conflicted due to the price difference. For those of you who work in smaller apartments (550 square feet ish) how do you separate your work space from your living space and does the constraints impact your mental health? I’m currently in an 800 square foot one bed+den and am hesitant to lose space!

How do you charge for small projects using a day rate with travel/partial days? For instance, if I'm running a workshop in anothet market and need to travel in the day before, have most of the next day free, facilitate a half-day workshop that afternoon, then fly back home the next day? Should it be 3 days to account for each day you are committing some time? 2 days to account for about the total amount of time spent in the workshop/travelling? Less to not include travel at all?

I work for a huge company for 11 years and haven’t been happy for a while. I feel emotionally attached to it because of great benefits, my growth (had multiple roles) and overall culture. Leaving it feels almost like ending a marriage (nuts, right?). Have you ever felt this way about your career before? I’ve seen people leaving and regretting it and seen people leaving and telling me there’s life post XYZ company.

I’d appreciate any thoughts and reading your pov.
