Ugh. I’m so so sick of articles that make it sound like women wait because we’re just busy and want to push maternity. Every woman I know (myself included) wishes she’d met her partner earlier. That’s not something we can control.

I’ve found my partner and we’re waiting 🤷‍♀️
But it does suck that they don’t give that perspective. I’m sure if a few people wrote in, they might do a follow up with that perspective in mind

I’m struggling on how to effectively coach a designer on my team who is a low performer. I’ve been working with them for two years.. but have not seen the growth needed to succeed in this industry. They’re slow, lack creative innovation, and have a hard time designing strategically (designs don’t make sense even from a functionality standpoint).

I’ve tried everything I can think of.. but at this point, account teams would rather request working with interns over this person.

Any advice?

My husband just sent in 150$ to his cousin, whose friend who was in need. I keep getting requests for help with charities, go fund me, school pta etc. I am not opposed to helping out when I can, but sometimes there are 5/6 a month. The 150$ really bugs me. It’s not the amount he sent (I would have preferred 50$). But it’s the fact that he didn’t consult me in the amount. He apologized but I am now wondering if I am too cheap.
