Does anyone think that they girl-bossed too hard? Like you wish you had more a simple position and/or job that wasn’t as stressful or important? Do you regret climbing the corporate ladder?

Yes, and essentially was able to pivot to climb back down to a comfortable spot. It wasn’t easy and I burned a lot of bridges, but I was able to tap into my network of women leaders to pivot to a position I previously held. There’s little to no path for advancement in the near future and I am really happy with where my life is right now. Do what is best for you.

Help- my FBIL is refusing to rent a tux for our wedding because he already owns one. It is a different tuxedo. We would like everyone in the same tux, which I don’t think is crazy to ask for? It’s not a financial issue and it’s not some sort of weird style. 11 other men will be in the rental, it will be obviously different. We’re paying a lot for formal pictures and while this isn’t a tragedy by any means, it is upsetting to my fiancé and I, especially as we ALWAYS go with everyone else’s flow.
