Feeling de-motivated as a consultant in healthcare. Doesn’t feel like a lot of the work I do actually helps patients or make anyone’s life better, which was the whole draw when I started 5+ years ago. I also sometimes feel stifled bc healthcare doesn’t have the $ and growth opps that I see my peers that work in other industries. Anyone ever feel this way?

I feel stuck. This is gonna sound crazy & it might just be the pre work out hitting me, but I feel stuck. I feel like I’m just on a hamster wheel every day. I’ve always been an entrepreneur by heart but I’ve always listened to people who fostered “the right advice” over taking the risk and following my dreams of starting a company. Not even sure what type of company to start but I’m tired of this feeling… could really use a mentor or some encouragement. I’m just so hungry but idk where to start.

I am lateraling. My start date is Sept. 7. I was planning on giving my current firm notice on Aug. 2 so my last day would be Aug. 13 and I would have a few weeks off before starting the new gig. Was just perusing the employee handbook of my current firm and found that the separation policy requires at least 4 weeks’ notice. I’ve never heard of this before, and I’m at a loss as to what I should do. I don’t want to lose the time off but don’t want to lose benefits for Aug. either.

I have 15 YOE all in health IT consulting in T2, mostly running large technology implementations for providers. I’m tired of the consulting grind and am contemplating going to industry.
