Which one to choose between Optum and Tiger Analytics for Data Scientist position? Where can I expect better data science domain expertise (In my previous companies I found very less understanding of Data Science practices as team)? Heared good things about both of these. Also hearing Tiger is expanding rapidly and getting some crap projects as well in the name of data science. Could someone put light on these things?

I would not say this anywhere else but since this is anonymous… microdosing mushrooms. It sounds like a joke but truly helped me let go of the kind of ruminating and obsession that hampers productivity
It's hard not to "overthink" about issues when you know every decision you make will be scrutinized by others higher up the food chain. It's especially bad for the first year or two in a top tier position. You just have to let it go at some point. Trust yourself. If you didn't handle an issue as perfectly as someone else thinks it should've been handled, listen to any advice and take it into consideration for the next time. The best thing to remember is that you have this position because you earned it. Your talent, experience and skills convinced others you were the right woman for this job -- and you are. As Billy Joel would say, "don't go changin' to try to please" anyone else. Review the situation, make a decision, go on to the next issue.
I've always struggled with this. I read way too much into everything and worry myself sick without reason. I've been trying to get better about letting things go and reminding myself not to let perfection be the enemy of progress.
I've always been an overthinker. It was something I had to really work on and truthfully, I am still working on it. I think as women many of us tend to be overthinkers just naturally and its really hard to combat that.
I struggle with this too. Working with a therapist now and she's helped me see that it's actually anxiety / trying to manage anxiety. Not saying that's the case for you but might be worth exploring.
